you know, i never realized this in his other movies, but Charlie Chaplin looks like Steve Martin in this one.
and that car looks EXTREMELY uncomfortable. But i did like how the put it together.

Mr. Carlisle!!!
I miss having your class everyday. I'm not doing as well in History this semester because of all those darn reading quizzes, even though I'm reading. I signed up for IB Psych next year so I'm excited for that. I'm pretty sure that's what I want to major in. Either Psychology, Sociology, or Anthropology. But anyway, I'm probably going to want you to be a reference for colleges and letters of recommendation and stuff, but that's down the road. Oh and my bet for the winner of ANTM this season: London!

i agree with tiffany! but make it like ford has done with its newer retro mustangs: much safer and with alittle modern twist. i cant beleive that they were already able to build cars that fast too, one finished every ten seconds!

I thought that silent movies would be boring, but now it seems that with the right music they're not bad.

Katy!!
Great to hear from you. Your presence is sorely missed in second period. I would love to write you a letter of rec for next year.
My prediction: Natalie or Celia.

Silent movies are not at all boring. There's a channel called Turner Classic Movies that runs silent films sometimes with Chaplin, Buster Keaton, and other former stars. They are actually pretty entertaining, much better than most of the terrible excuses for TV programming today's networks like to air.

Bad experiences with MTV one day, Watanabe. It killed my wish for sound in television/movies.

Hey carlisle, the video about the model t was really cool, i saw a video last year showing how cars are built now and its really cool to see how far we have come and how cars are made now.
