Don't you just hate it when your mom wants to watch the Minnesota Vikings football game and you want to watch the Chicago Bears? That always happens to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bears are my favorite team because they have Brian Urlacher and Devon Hester, both awesome players. They also had Walter Payton, a.k.a. Sweetness, an NFL Hall of Fame running back. The Bears have had a longer history of great players than the Vikings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Vikings may have Adrian Peterson, an NFL top rusher, and future Hall of Famer Brett Farve at quarterback, but that doesn't mean they always do well. The Vikings have a habit of disappointing their fans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bears have been to two Super Bowls and won one. The Vikings have been to four, but were crushed in each one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my opinion, the Bears are the ones to watch because they have been around longer and continue to impress me.

Wich side will you choose?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think that everyone should have cats because they are such a cure for sadness! When you look in to there eyes and all you can see is the little reflections of the light on the Christmas Tree! And they are so soft that you want to cuddle them to pieces! Also, when you need to say outloud something that is on your mind, you can depend on a cat not to tell a soul!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not my personal opinion, but it just might be yours! Here are some ways on why some people don't like cats.&lt;br /&gt;Some people just can't have cats because they can't afford them! And others could be allergic to their furr.  The litterbox also takes responsibility that a lot of people don't have! Take me for example!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There you have it America!

I personally think that winter is 10x better than summer because it obviously snows in the winter making winter unique while the sun rises and sets &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;every&lt;/span&gt; day.  What do you think?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 1st reason fro me liking winter better, and to me the biggest reason, is that winter has more hands on activities to do outside and in.  For example making snowmen, snow forts, snowballs, sledding, gingerbread men, and more.  My next reason is that you get/have to get all bundled up, sit by the fireplace, and drink hot coco.  All of these things get you warmed after being outside.  Next my final reason is that you don't have to worry about sunscreen  &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;or&lt;/span&gt; sunburn!  You also don't have to worry about frostbite &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;if&lt;/span&gt; you bundle up!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Winter is &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;not&lt;/span&gt; better than summer because summer is safer.  There are more car accidents in the winter due to snow which leads to Waukee becoming a larger community.  My second reason is that more people get sick in the winter.  Most people suffer from the flue or other viruses in the winter than in the summer.  My last reason is that you &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;can &lt;/span&gt;get  frostbite if you are not protected depending on the temperature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I personally take the side of winter because if you are clean, careful, and safe winter is better.  I know it sounds like a lot of work but really they are just the things we should be doing everyday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.&lt;br /&gt;Don't let those summer lovers tell you are a cold person just because you like winter!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By: Miranda&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8089499695253621157-6246921684556556921?l=www.mrgoerend.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.mrgoerend.com/feeds/6246921684556556921/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.mrgoerend.com/2009/12/snowflakes-or-sunburn-which-will-you.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8089499695253621157/posts/default/6246921684556556921'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8089499695253621157/posts/default/6246921684556556921'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.mrgoerend.com/2009/12/snowflakes-or-sunburn-which-will-you.html' title='Snowflakes Or Sunburn, Which Will You Choose?'/><author><name>Student</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00129244631935610294</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='18194175736282776611'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
