Writer's Note Book is a daily project I do at my school where I write a 3/4 page-2 page long story about anything.I will be posting it whenever I get the chance or when it's a really good story

            Attention!                                             10/15/05
   If you are reading this, three more days till Lemony Snicket's ASOUE book 12 is out! If you go to one website (http://grrface.com/2005/10/for-beatrice-no-one-could-extinguish.html )this is very exciting!I know I am going to get it very soon. The back of the book says:
                           Dear Reader,
If this is the first book you found while searching for a book to read next, then the first thing you should know is that this next-to-last book is what you should put down first. Sadly, this book presents the next-to-last chronicle of the lives of the Baudelaire orphans, and it is next-to-first in its supply of misery, despair, and unpleasantness. Probably the next-to-last things you would like to read about are a harpoon gun, a rooftop sunbathing salon, two mysterious initials, three unidentified triplets, a notorious villan, and an unsavory curry. Next-to-last things are the first thing to be avoided, so allow me to recommend that you put this next-to-last book down first, and find something else to read next at last, such as the next-to-last book in another chronicle, or a chronicle containing other next-to-last things, so that this next-to-last book does not become the last book you will read.

Halloween                   10/22/05
 
 
               Halloween is coming,
            time for spooks and sweets,
          time to get out your scariest costume,
            time to memorize 'trick or treat!'
 
Halloweens a time,
when being bad is good,
staying after curfew makes sense
and 'smell my feet' is understood.
 
Halloweens a time,
taking candy from stranger's okay
when calling someone a 'halloweener'
is always funny to say.
                  
               
           THE END
 
 
I Think............            8/18/05
 
The Bengals and the Colts will go to the Super Bowl. I can see it now; Carson vs. Peyton, the ultimate showdown. I think that the Colts will be the second team to have a perfect season.(The only other team to have a perfect season were the Miami Dolphins in 1972.) You know what makes me mad, no one is talking about the Patriots. Just because their doing bad. The tables have turned! I was smart and didn't start to like them.( or maybe I just hate Tom Brady) I feel sorry for my dad. He picked the Patriots defense. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.The great Patriots defense!
 
         THE END

Reggie Miller Coming Back (maybe) 9/6/07
 
Theres not much to say but
The Boston Celtics have spoken with future Hall of Famer Reggie Miller about coming out of retirement to help the once-proud franchise in its push for an unprecedented 17th NBA title.

"I'm always flattered when my name is mentioned as someone who can still help an NBA team win a championship,'' Miller said Wednesday in a statement relayed to The Associated Press by the TNT network. "I've had limited discussions with Celtics management about their roster and a potential role for me. At this time, I'm enjoying my role as an analyst with TNT.''

ESPN.com was the first to report the talks. But both sides confirmed the possibility that Miller, who will turn 42 this month, would consider returning for the chance at a championship he never won during an 18-year career, all with the Indiana Pacers.

"(I have) contacted Reggie and he is contemplating a comeback with us,'' Celtics basketball boss Danny Ainge said through a team spokesman.

Miller's agent, Arn Tellem, declined comment.

Miller, who has been retired for two seasons, is 13th on the league's career scoring list with 25,279 points and the leader in 3-pointers made and attempted. His uniform No. 31 was retired by the Pacers last year.

In addition to working on television broadcasts of NBA and WNBA games, he has run a movie production company called Boom Baby Productions and co-hosted "Live with Regis and Kelly.'' But he admitted when the Pacers opened training camp without him in 2005 that it wasn't the same thrill.

"It's strange not to be a part of an (NBA) organization or part of a team,'' he said then. "I'm not joking with anybody on the bus like I usually do. But waking up with my back, knees and ankles hurting - that's not stuff I'm going to miss much.''

The Celtics were 24-58 last season and have won three playoff series in the nine years since drafting Paul Pierce. But they have undergone a near-complete roster overhaul this summer that has taken them from a rebuilding program to Eastern Conference contenders.

They traded for seven-time All-Star Ray Allen at the draft and then pulled off an unprecedented 7-for-1 trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves for 2004 NBA MVP Kevin Garnett. Those two will team with Pierce to form one of the most formidable top three in the NBA.

But the rest of the roster needs work.

The starting lineup includes second-year pro Rajon Rondo at point guard and Kendrick Perkins at center. Only four other players are under contract.

"Clearly, we need a little bit more help just to shore up the bench,'' Celtics coach Doc Rivers said after the Garnett deal. "But it's sure better talking about shoring up our bench than shoring up our starting lineup.''

That's where Miller would fit in, as a backup for Allen and the kind of veteran who would provide guidance - and perhaps a key 3-pointer - in the playoffs. (The last time the NBA's most decorated franchise, made the postseason, in 2005, they were bounced out in seven games by the Pacers in Miller's final season
