Warm-up
This comic strip reminds me of when the computer gets issues and cant log in fro errors. I think this is so boring and fustrating when it happens because you dont know what to do and its hard. This has happened to me and I get really stressed because I dont know what to do I have to talk to someone to fix it or follow the steps by phone but its real confusing.i think computers do this because of the used maybe its used alot or I dont know maybe its old or something or it has viruses.Thats what I tink about the computers when they are broken.

Warm-up
This is a FREE WRITE. WRITE a Paragraph (6-7 Sentences) In light of recent events (The Virgina Tech Shooting) and what you have just read about the Columbine Shooting that occured 8 years ago today, what are your initial thoughts about these violent acts? What motivated the murderers to do what they did?

My initial thoughts about this masssacre that occured just monday and eight years ago are very sad. Even though I didn't know anyone their it still hurts how they were killed. Knowing that maybe things like that still happens in our community.It is very sad how people this days dont take adbvantage of what they have in life and just preffers doing stupid things. For example like those people who decided to kill in the school they kill many people and then kill them selves thats just crazy.They should have just killed themselves if they didnt want to live anymore instead of causing so much pain to the families that had students in that highschool. I think what motivated this murderers to do this was their anger that they felt inside why i dont know but it shows that they were mad at people and life itself.hats what comes to my mind when I read this articles.
