Running with a Ghost

Running With a Ghost By Charles Rachel If I was training to run a marathon and met up with a ghost, I hope it would be my friend Shane Davidson. I have written about him in a previous article. He was my fishing buddy in my youth. I think of him often and would like to think he is watching over me from above. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if his spirit was watching me from a window. I would welcome it as a matter of fact! I have also lost many other friends and family members over the years. Any of them could be watching at any given time, I know they are.

The Invisible Man

The Invisible Man By Charles Rachel As an invisible man, I would be able to go anywhere I pleased without ever being seen. I wonder what I’d see or learn that I wouldn’t otherwise know. There have been many times in my life in certain situations where I have wanted to be a fly on a wall, as the saying goes. Being invisible would give me an opportunity to maybe see the world in a different way. Also, I might be able to see more of it!

What animals might think about the world we live in

What Animals might think about the world we live in By Charles Rachel We live in a world that can seem boring sometimes, but has anyone ever thought about what other animals might think about it? Lets think about it. Fish and ocean life swim around with no place to go, and other pets and animals do what they do! At least we as people can find ways to break it up and find ways to manage our time wisely, but fish and other under water animals just swim around with no place to go! It would be interesting to hear what they think about the world we live in.

An Ocean of Crabs

An Ocean of Crabs By Charles Rachel Crabs are one of my favorite things to eat. I could eat a whole bushel all by myself. I have never gone crabbing before. However, I might be tempted to try it, if I found an ocean full of them. Ocean City is one place I have never visited before. That might be a nice trip to take, if I get the chance. There may even be crabs there to catch, if I went at the right time of season. Then again, maybe I’ll just stick to catching fish. It is probably he easier of the two options anyway.

Wabbit Hunting: my Loonet Tunes Adventure

Wabbit Hunting: my Looney tunes adventure By Charles Rachel I think it would be fun to wake up and find myself in a Looney Tunes cartoon, helping Elmer Fudd chase Bugs bunny. I like the episode where Bugs and Daffy duck are telling him it’s Wabbit season and duck season at the same time. In that case, Elmer could chase Bugs, and I could chace Daffy. Or the other way around, it would also be a nice escape from reality for a while.

Bo and Luke just wanted to Have Fun

Bo and Luke were just having fun By Charles Rachel The Dukes of Hazard is one of my favorite television programs of all time. The show’s re runs have recently been taken off of cable television, because of the controversy over the meaning behind the confederate battle flag that appears on the roof of the famous car called the General Lee, named after confederate General Robert E. Lee of course. The flag features a cross in the shape of the letter X with about fourteen stars on it. It has been said that the flag represents slavery and a way of life that we as Americans don’t agree with or appreciate. This way of life is wrong of course, but it is unfortunately the way things were during this time. However, it should not be like that now. I do not agree with the decision to remove the Dukes of Hazard or any TV program from the air, simply because the confederate flag is used in it. The show makes no mention of the issues associated with the symbol. What will be next? Will our American flag be next because it represents our freedom? Why can’t we ever just leave well enough alone? We just might be better o ff in the long term if we did.

Night at the Museum

Night at the Museum By Charles Rachel If I was stuck in a museum after it closed, I would most defiantly go exploring everything to see what was there. I would also be interested in seeing if anything came to life like in the movie of the same name! I would also try to stay aware of any night security guards that might be watching and if they spotted me, I might try to pose as one of the exhibits for a while. Then I would get out of there if I could. I think it might be a fun experience to have, though I would try not to get locked in there all night. I hope some or the things there would come to life, so I would have someone to talk to. It might be a long night!
