Carlos's+Mesopotamia+Project

“Kirbani go fetch the water for the millionth time.” That was my mom by the way telling me to go fetch the water but I ain’t doin that because our scout Gilgasaw was found dead not a mile from here and that’s the closest water well and Hammurabi won’t let the slaves get water from the town well. Im pretty sure that the Assyrians killed Gilgasaw that’s a pity because Gilgasaw is my FATHER forced to see if the Assyrians were coming. Since the Assyrians gave my dad’s friend who was helping him scout his head and they said “Take this thing to the things family and we will spare your life.” NOW THAT IS JUST WRONG DON’T YOU THINK? Anyways well WHAT THE @#$%. All I hear is marching feet stomping hooves and war cries. Next I hear screaming I run to my house to find my mom but she was looking for me and wasn’t there. I hear more screaming and a stampede of Assyrian people go by my house luckily they dint see me but they beheaded my mom and rolled her head through the curtain door. I was horrified her eyes were popped out and her jaw ripped open she had a terrified look on her face



=**PrimogenitureFair or Not?**What is primogeniture? Consider the roots //**prime**// and //**gen**//. Write the **definition** of primogeniture.= =Primogeniture means that the oldest person in the family gets everything in their parents' will.=

=If this law were in effect in the United States today, would that be **beneficial** to you or a **detriment**? Why or why not? In fact, this concept is unofficially still in effect in many other countries around the world...= =It would be a benefit to me because I am the oldest kid,but it would not be fair to my other sibling.=

=What would be some other **options** to make money if **you** **won't** **inherit** any **wealth**?= =You could marry a rich person or you could start a business.=

=When **you** have your own **family**, how will **you** spread out **your** **wealth**? When you write a will, will it be **static** (fixed) law or **dynamic** (flexible)? Will you give to only your children? Pets? Other relatives? Friends? How will you **determine** this?= =I really don't know. I would probably have my will be dynamic so if one of my children did something bad they would lose part of the money they would get. I would also put part of my money to save homeless pets such as dogs, cats and other animals.= =Creative Story - Week Seven Terms= =One night I walked into a lucent room. I had a hallucination of a miniature Chihuahua dancing the Jerk! It was genius! I inserted my microchip into a my camera and I proceeded to push the record button. Then I fell on the room's slippery terrain! I suffered a microscopic fracture in my tailbone and it was maximum pain! I called 911, but they never succeeded in rescuing me - their ambulance crashed halfway to the room! I was still seeing the Chihuahua doing the Jerk. My tailbone began to feel better so I decided to walk over to the microwave and pop some popcorn. As I got to the microwave I had second thoughts about making the popcorn and decided to go up on the terrace. As I got up on the terrace I slipped off and fell three stories down. I had a very bad night and was stuck watching the Chihuahua do the waltz through the evening.=
