NOT AGAIN!!!

Hi everyone I'm writing in a storm right now! It is CRAZY RAINY!
What is your weather like? Any way I just wanted to say Iron Man 3 was EPIC! I think post this needs some facts, don't you?
FACTS
  • A shark can detect a fish's heartbeat up to 3 feet away.
Sorry there is only 1 fact but I'm out and the rain is getting heavier.
SHARKS AREN'T SCARY THEY'RE JUST DIFFERENT!!!!!

Happy (Late) Victoria Day

Hiya everybody!! I have an announcement!  I GOT A HAIR CUT!!!

                                                         After                             Before

 Okay it isn't as exciting as world peace or whatever, but this is a "once in a blue moon" thing for me.  Anyway, I thought since it was Victoria Day I'd do a blog about... Well, actually I didn't think of anything Victoria Day related. Oh yeah! I forgot to ask who saw Rob Stewart's movie Revolution? I haven't but I just can't wait to see it!!!!!!!!  Since we're talking about movies, what movies have YOU seen lately??? Leave a comment naming the movie and how you liked it please. (My comment box is getting lonely). I want to see Iron Man 3. If anyone has seen the movie PLEASE DO NOT SPOIL IT!!!!!!!!!!!  Any how, I think it's time for some facts from the WEIRD but TRUE book, don't you? No? NO?!?! Fine, be that way see if I care!


...


Just kidding! Ha ha! I had you going, didn't I? What? I didn't? Any way, here you go!



FACTS 
From National Geographic's ultimate WEIRD but TRUE.
  •    The first shark appeared 40 million years BEFORE the earth's first trees.
  • A shark can grow and lose up to 30,000 teeth in a life time. 

YIKES! I don't even have 30 yet!!

Well, until next time,

SHARKS AREN'T SCARY, THEY'RE JUST DIFFERENT!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(Again)

Again, I'm frustrated with the Internet.  I got a Gmail account (yay!) and I had it and my blog open at the same time and... AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!  MY SISTER JUST GOT OUT FURBY!!!!!!!!!!!

The crazy fur ball. 


Phew!!  It fell asleep.  Anyway, I was going to write a blog with some really cool shark facts, but I had my Gmail account and my blog open and I was logged into both at the same time. When I logged into my Gmail, I got logged out of my blog and vise versa. It turned out that my Yahoo account that I used to log in and my Gmail account weren't compatible. So, with the help of my mom, I tried to change my email I use to log in to my Gmail, but it kept saying "A Gmail Account can not be used in association with blogger". That was really frustrating. On a happier note I got a HUGE jar of pickles! And yes, I'm aware I look like a dork.
I think it's cool because the jar is bigger than my head. Anyway for the facts.


Facts:

A Great White Shark can weigh as much as 15 gorillas.
A Shark can go for 6 weeks without food. "I don't like to go up to 6 hours without food." Are the words my dad said when I showed him the National Geographic book.

Well, there are more facts from National Geographic but, I want to save them for later.
Until next time,
SHARKS AREN'T SCARY THEY'RE JUST DIFFERENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THAT was me screaming in frustration   This post doesn't have ANYTHING to do with sharks.  I just wanted to ask if you if you get as annoyed as I do when Chrome crashes and all your tabs say "He's dead Jim" and there is a file with X eyes and a frowny face.  If you do feel the same way, feel free to leave me a comment telling me how you feel about the dead folder dude.:(

Anyway, I hope this doesn't happen often.


SHARK'S AREN'T SCARY, THEY'RE JUST DIFFERENT!!!!!!! ;)

"Shark Survivor turns Shark Saviour"

Hey everybody, I have some AWESOME news.  About 10 minutes ago, my mom gave me a news paper called The National Post, with the front page title: "Shark Survivor turns Shark Saviour".  The little words under the picture said: "Canadian Nicole Moore lost most of her left arm and suffered severe damage to her left leg in a shark attack in Mexico, in 2011.  She isn't holding a grudge: She says she's on "a mission" to prevent the needless killing of sharks."

Now, THAT is what I call super awesome!  Since the article on Nicole is SUPER long, I'm just going to put a link to the National Post website at the end of this post.:)


                                                                  FACTS


  • The first fossil of a Great White Shark, was of it's teeth, came from 60-65 MILLION years ago.(That was around the time when the dinosaurs went extinct!WOW!)
  •  "In 2010, Greenpeace International added the school sharkshortfin mako sharkmackerel sharktiger shark and spiny dogfish to its seafood red list, a list of common supermarket fish that are often sourced from unsustainable fisheries."
I found these fact's at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark.

Well that pretty much covers everything, here's that link to the National Post: http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/04/01/


Remember, Sharks aren't scary, they're just different!! :)

Even MORE facts about sharks

Hey guys!  I'm just reading stuff on the Dork Diaries website and I decided to do a blog.  I am looking for shark info and...

Sorry, Mom just called for supper!

...

Sorry!  Now where was I? (tapping chin, trying to remember)  Oh yeah!  I found a Shark-Wikipedia and I was like "YEAH!!!!"  But I only said it in my head.  Or maybe I didn't.  Anyway, on to the "facts" part of this   blog!

A Megalodon is the one of the oldest sharks and it is the biggest of the sharks known to man.

In 1991 South Africa was the first to call Great White Sharks a protected species.

I'll be back soon with some more facts next time, but until then...

Sharks aren't scary, they are just different!!!!!!!!

Blogging again + 1 surprise = My 1st blog since Oct. 6 2012

Hiya!  It's me again!  I'm REALLY sorry I haven't been here for a little LONG time, but...  Well I guess there's no excuse for not being here for so long.  I'll bet you're wondering why I decided to get off my lazy behind and blog.

Well, for the past few months of school I've been reading these books called "Dork Diaries" and they are really good!  Anyway I was reading one yesterday (March 21 2013) and when I was done (I got it at 3:00 and finished at about 5:00) I was putting it down on my desk and I noticed that there was a thing on the back that said "If you like the books, than you'll think the website is great too! DorkDiaries.com" so I checked it out and there was a blog section and I was like "OMG!".  The person that wrote the blog was there every every day of every month, since 2009!!!!!  That's 4 years of blogging.  Well, I guess that person isn't 11 years old and has MAJOR homework!!!

Yep,  that's my surprise folks!  It was my birthday last week!  Well this blog had nothing to do with sharks, but I just wanted to say I'm back and I'll be blogging a lot more!!(Especially because it's Spring Break :)  Well, "That's all folks!!!!" - Porky Pig

In other words,  "Sharks aren't scary they're just different!" - Oscar Plant
