Medium Articles by Brian
This week I will be introducing a new article called Medium Articles. The old "Mini Articles" will still appear but now these new and exciting articles will appear with them.

I'm a Celebrity
The play that Brian and Ann Peterka are in is going great. The first show is on October 8th but that is not for the public. The only public show is on October 11th!

School
School has hit hard on Brian Peterka. It's easy but not as easy as grade school. Although the days seem to go quicker some classes are very boring.

Family
The family life is fine! Tweed is O.K.! Everyone is dandy, except of course Schubert, who is still dead and six feet under the ground.

Closing
This has just been an introduction to Medium Articles. I hope they grow and prosper in the next few months.

The Movie Review by Mom
Postcards from the Edge is an excellent movie! It is funny, serious, and thought-provoking. Basically, it examines the mother/daughter relationship in a straight-forward no nonsense way. There is little real physical violence but a lot of emotional violence: good and bad. The people in this movie do care about each other. They acknowledge problems and begin to work on them. I think Shirley McLaine and Mryle Streep did a GREAT JOB!

Imagination by Nick
His name was Billy. His imagination was better than any human being on Earth. His imagination was so good that whatever he could imagine would come true.

Time: Wednesday morning, 8 a.m.

"Billy shouldn't you be going to school?"

"I don't have to go to school any more remember?"

"Oh, yeah. You imagined you were a super genius and graduated from Harvard at the top of your class. Now, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to watch Muppet Babies."

"Honestly, Billy, why don't you imagine something better like a mountain and a bundle of money?"

"What could I do with a mountain?"

"I don't know, live there maybe."

"I like it very fine here!"

"I'm going to the store and when I get back, please get those Muppet Babies off the couch!"

Time: Wednesday evening, 8 p.m.

"Bill, that's a really good story. Now, I would like you to get ready for bed."

"Oh, can't I just stay up and watch the Muppet Babies?"

"No, now get into bed!"

Trivia by Mom
I, mom, got a hair cut on the 10th ... Everyone likes it.

Ann got a 100% on first Math Analysis quiz! David got an 98% ...

Stuff by Nick
During the week my name was announced over the P.A. It turned out I get to help the library with their VCR! My job is to go get the VCR at the end of the day. I don't really why I was picked, all I know is that I signed on a sheet that said I could help!

On Sept. 29th, I invited my friend Brian Karla over. Brian and I wrote a book in 5th grade and plan to write another in 6th grade.

On Sept. 30th, I planned to see a movie with my friend Ben Morrow. Unfortunately, we ended up driving to the wrong theater, so we would have had to have missed about 20 minutes. So instead we went to the Video game arcade at ParmaTown. Aside from all of the bad graphic Nintendo games we played all the fun games!!!
