Week 6 Reading Notes

There once was a couple named Miemun and Khojisteh, they were virtually inseparable. They loved each other very very much. They ate together, went everywhere together, they sat together, they were attached at the hip. This couple owned two birds, both birds were wise and could communicate with the couple. One was a parrot and the other a Sharuk.

One day Miemun had to go off on a great journey of which he would not return for many days. When he left he left Khojisteh and the two birds behind.

When Miemun was gone a prince came to town and started to fall in love with Khojisteh. Even though she knew it would be wrong to show interest to this man she couldn't help but fall for him as well. The prince asked her out and she accepted.

She was torn between going or not, she knew it was wrong but she also wanted to go very bad, she decided she would ask Sharuk. She asked the bird if it would be ok for her to leave and go on a date with the prince and Sharuk said absolutely not, it would be wrong and deplorable.

Khojisteh became enraged and grabbed Sharuk by the feet and slammed the bird on the ground. She delivered a blow that would kill him.

She decided she would ask the parrot his advice next. The Parrot having seen what had just happened decided to prolong his life rather than tell her not to go. The parrot knew it was wrong so instead of saying don't go, he offered to tell her a story that might help her come to her own conclusion.

Introduction Post

Sooner Schooner taking a ride on Owen Field Link Hello class, this is my formal introduction post to tell you more about me. I guess we should start off with the basics, my name is Ryan Ard, I am a junior here at OU, and my major is Public Relations. One of my favorite things to do is to be an active Oklahoma RUF/NEK member. Through the Oklahoma RUF/NEKS I care for the school's official mascot the Sooner Schooner as well as care for and maintain Boomer and Sooner, OU's two white welsh ponies. When people ask me if I have hobbies I usually can't think of any on the spot because I am always busy fulfilling responsibilities with the club or planning for future events with the club. I guess some would say that my membership in this club has consumed my life but I think the contrary is true. This club has opened up so many opportunities for me and without my membership, I wouldn't be involved with many of the opportunities I have had. Through this orga...

Reading Notes Part B "Deaths Messengers"

Deaths Messengers One day a giant was walking along a highway when a man jumped out at him and told him to stop. The man said, "I am death, you have to listen to me." The giant denied him and told death to move out of the way. They disagreed and began to wrestle. It was a long and tough battle but the giant gained the upper hand. He defeated death and left him on the side of the road. Death laid on the road concerned with what the world would look like without him. He was concerned for the people who wouldn't die in his absence. The world would be full of people and nobody would be able to move. Then a young man walked up out of nowhere and started to assist death without knowing who he was. He let death drink from his canteen and he nursed him back to health. Death finally was able to speak to him when he said," I am death and I am extremely grateful for your help. Because of this, I promise to not kill you without warning. When your time comes I will send ...

Week 7 Story "The Boiled Bat"

Bush Rat One day the Bat and the Bush Rat were eating together in a field. They both made soup at their homes and brought it to eat with each other. The Rat asked if he could try the Bats soup and he did. The Rat exclaimed, "Wow! this soup is so good, it tastes so sweet and savory." The Rat asked the bat how in the world he made his soup so good. The Bat, knowing he could pull one over the rat, exclaimed, "You see Rat, I simply boil myself in the broth of the soup before I make it. My flesh sweetens it up." The Rat replied, "Wow, how interesting. That is something I will have to try." They both parted ways and went home. On the way home the Rat became upset. You see the rat had already asked the Bats wife how the soup was made but he had forgotten. So when he asked the bat for the recipe so he could remember and he replied with boiling himself in the broth the Rat knew he was lying. He knew that he couldn't forget something that outrageous.
