You win again, Mr. Disney! Blast! Oh, and rantage! April 2, 2006 - 21:56:28
So I picked up Kingdom Hearts 2 on Wednesday, and I was pleasantly surprised. It is far darker then the original, but that doesn't neccessarily make up for the lack of inventive story-telling. They'll get it right in three. Now on to real things. Now I know some of you live in the Eau Claire area (see, most) and will also maybe know what's happening to the nice and pleasant atmosphere of the East Side Hill (which I've been living on for 13 years, feel free to stalk me, I'm bored anyway) Anyway, two nights ago, I was enjoying my Boondock Saints that my friend Sarah let me borrow, and all of a sudden, I hear a very loud bang, my mom, who was with me at the time, said that it was probably a gun shot. I'm concerned, and I put it on back burner, and then about five minutes later, another shot was heard. I don't know if I'm personally out of place to be concerned. My family doesn't even hunt, I've never heard a real gun shot before. After that happened, I decided to take a nice pleasant walk with my dog, because I am the nosiest person on the face of the earth, and as I'm doing so, I notice that not a single police car has pulled up anywhere, nothing. Now, I've had this slow burning anger my entire life that the Main Street area has been neglected by the City Council for years. Back when I was at Boyd Elementary School, the crossing guards only went a block away from the building itself, I haven't looked in years though. Now that the new Flynn Elementary has been built, it seems that the children up on the hill are much better taken care of. Also, the East Hill has been getting a large amount of convicted sex offenders or convicted child molesters lately. I personally would like to see one seated up in Oakwood Hills, oh wait, that would hurt some nice rich persons feelings, wouldn't it? I'm so tired of the city just walking all over poor people. My family does not live on the East Hill out of neccessity, we live there because of the Neighboorhood and the feelings therein, (My Mother grew up two blocks from where we currently live, she's just as concerned) but some people do live there because they can not afford it, and it's those people that I speak for when I say that it's wrong what the city thinks it can get away with. I love Eau Claire, I'll probably get old and die here just like everyone else I know, and it kills me to see a well laid foundation turn to rot because of a few selfish people. - Yushadonga
