Look Smart





Go to a school that uses video games to teach everything from English to history.

Make a magic phone call.

Master some of the tricks the CIA used during the cold war.

Use your discarded hair to save the world.

Learn how to collect tasty salad ingredients . . . in Central Park.

But don't worry if you can't spell. (You can add me to that list.)

Turn water into marbles (below).

If you read the comments out after the magic phone call article it will tell you the most likely answer.
Video game school might work really well for some people but I think I would do better in normal school. The only video games I can do are ones like Harvest Moon where controls and speed don't matter.

I would LOVE to go to that school. Man, it would be a lot better than sitting at the computer desk typing up essays.

Hair. Hmmmmm . . . I used to have to go down to my knees, so some of those things wouldn't be so hard for me.

I think that the people who commented on the phone call wee right, and that the words were a code to the correct numbers.

Have any of you ever read The Five Ancestors?

Megan said...

I got all of the ingrediants for the marbles... except for the white powder-y stuff. Where and how can you get that stuff?

Al Fonzo said...

Have any of you guys seen Sherlock holmes?? I saw it for the second time and I still LOVE IT!!! It's so amazing and I suggest you see it!! Weird thing is I thought of kiki strike during it!!

And related to the bad spellers: Anthony Trollope was a bad proofreader and had bad handwriting.

Well I kind of liked the 6th Harry potter, if you at it as a movie instead of as a book made movie it's pretty good. But I do agree that the bellatrix burning the burrow down part sucked big time. Do any of u listen to muggle cast??? It's a fab Harry potter podcast. I wish there was a kiki strike podcast }"

ForresterVA said...

Kiel; You can get iodized salt ANYWHERE. It's the kind they use in salt shakers.
