Hurrahs for Halloween and MEA

Before we start the news, I'd like to tell you who is guest blogging - my dad! All right, Dad, let's see what the news is. Of course, I think everyone here listening knows what MEA means - Minnesota Education Association, which is the teachers' union. They have their convention every year in October. This is cool, because it means that I get a vacation and of course, I hope you all know what Halloween means - trick or treating! Ghosts, goblins and witches! Candy and fun! And of course costumes. Dad, what do you have to say here.

The next paragraph is by Dad:

I think MEA is pretty cool, too, because Maria and Ben have been working hard at school and need a break. Kids really enjoy the time off and the weather is still usually pretty good, so they can have some fun. When you are 7 years old, like Maria, fun is really your most important thing. And who doesn't like Halloween? Just the candy alone makes it cool, but there's also a lot of colorful costumes and a little bit of foolishness, too. Good stuff, I say. Now, back to Maria!

Very interesting, Dad! Now, here comes the last important news, plus a sneak preview of what Maria might, now just might, turn into. Okay, here comes the last news - it's a connection fiesta; we've got our new laptop that we are typing on now and it's a Toshiba and just yesterday we got Internet connection from Comcast. And we got the Comcast Triple Play. Okay, here comes THE SNEAK PREVIEW - STUDENT COUNCIL ELECTIONS ARE COMING! I REALLY WANT TO BE CLASS PRESIDENT OR THE CLASS PRESIDENT'S ALTERNATE. I KNOW IT'S A BIG RESPONSIBILITY BUT I'M GOING TO DO IT! I HOPE I WIN. IF YOU HAVE ANY ADVICE PLEASE GIVE ME A COMMENT.

Well, that's a double bye-bye. See ya next time on the show that never ends!
