#16 Chilean Minners

The lession anyone can learn from the story of the chilean minners is not to let fame blow up in your face. Not everyone is meant to be famous.

#15 Bowling for Columbine

One thing I will take with me from bowling for Columbine is to never live in the states. There is too many people who's lives end at the simple act of a trigger being pulled, and the people in the states are trigger happy. I agree fully with Micheal Moores opinion on the states violence, and 9/11. If the states willingly kill thousands of people to make a few bucks, it just shows that it is an unsafe place to be and live. Their government leaders are the terrorists.

#14 The iphone 4S

I personally am satisfied with my iphone 4. It works efficiantly even though it was run over by a car. To say the least, my phone is a trooper. The iphone 4S is the same thing with nothing but a software update and a new gadget. Its like an old car, with new interior.

why have the almost exact same thing, but pay more money?? Just throw some seat covers on it!!!

#13...with the death of Steve Jobs...

I own an iphone 4 and an ipod. I would really like to have an apple laptop. I find the programs very easy to use and the overall layout and design is refreshing. The company, before Steve jobs resigned of ceo, was on the right track, afterwords they were all over the place with the loss of their visionary.

#12 My spoof commercial

The product that my group will be spoofing is proactiv. I am working with Ryan Wellar and Mandy Zandbergen. The plan is to prove that proactiv doesnt make you look like a celebrity, and that people use it when they dont really need it. It will be a success because we all have a very unique sence of humor, and together we will be witty-er than Charlie Sheen.

We are bi-winning. We win here, win there, we win everywhere.

#11 Are TV shows making girls mean?

In my opinon, media can have an influence on anyone, espeacially young and teenage girls. If a child is not taught properly by their parents about the media in their early years it will have a HUGE impact on how they will go about themselves throughout their lives. It will be nearly impossible to get the message through to a teenager or young adult. The TV shows are not to blame, it is the parents for not teaching their children common knowledge.

#10 "Seahaven is the way the world is supposed to be"

I do not agree nor do I dissagree. Seahaven is someones perception of the world, more or less unrealistic. It seperates the people that live there from the harsh reality of the cruel word. Its one big film set really. The world will never be like Seahaven, so maybe Seahaven is supposed to be like the rest of the world.

#9 Jumping the Shark

The office has deffinitly jumped the shark, in fact, the shark swallowed the office whole. The style of humor has just gotten old. With Steve Carrel leaving the show, and Jim becoming manager and being serious, it is up to the supporting actors to carry the show, and well, thats just not enough.

#7 Your "facebook alternative"

My website would be called Home stage. It would have glitch free video calling. It would allow you to connect with family and friends accross the world with video calling, life updates, photo albums, and give the illusion that your not far from home. It would be a succuss because people would have a second home, home stage.

#6 Charlie Sheen ...the guy...not the guy on the show

He's not bi-polar, he's bi-winning! He bangs 7 gram rocks and he has tiger blood because that's how he rolls...           Check out Charlie's Winning Recipes here       One day I would love to party with Charlie Sheen......winning!!

#5 click on link about Monday's episode and explain why you think this show was such a success

The season premire of Two and a Half Men was a success due to two separate factors. #1The anticipation of the death of the character Charlie Harper. #2 The introduction of Ashton Kutcher's character and the sheer pleasure that teens & middle aged women get from a soaking wet Ashton.

#4 The Social Network

The Social Network was bland, and not something I would watch again. I lost interest after the first fifteen minutes. It's one of those love it or hate it movies, and I hate it. I disagree with this movie's positive rating.

#3 all media exists to make money

This statement has no personal impact on me. I believe that most media exists to make money and money makes the world go round.
