12 year old visit’s jail for making a joke. under CRAZY NEWS
Do you know that you can go to jail in the US for making a nasty joke in public or in school? Now to me that really does sound ridiculous especially when the joke is coming from a 12 year old kid.

I did not really blog on major topics this week. I blogged mainly on technology. I also just resumed back to School and this semester does look very promising. Although I am taking only 16 credit hours. I also have watched a lot of movies this week. My movie of the month is Oliver Twist. I really love the cockney English. It is a re-production of the movie of a classical book written by Charles Dickens. I used the book, back when I was in primary 4 as my literature book. It came together with Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain.

By the way I watched a french movie Banlieue 13, and its superb. It is an uber-stylish and hyper-kinetic martial arts and sci-fi actioner from writer/producer Luc Besson. The special effects and stunts are outstanding. I didnt know French filmakers are good, and well it was produced in 2004, but yet produced well, I must say.
