Moses Lakabung

“Let my people go!” exclaimed Moses. I looked upon Moses, not knowing his plight...did I cause this outburst? “You’re going down pharaoh, down to the Red Sea fool” growled the now impassioned Moses with the whole of his being.  Timidly, I approached Moses and said “Hey dude, you ok today?” Moses gazed into my eyes, then bluntly stated “I am almighty Moses, listen to what I have to say...I will achieve an ‘A’ on every single annotated bibliography written for this research project, because I am Moses!”  Breaking down and cowering in the corner I managed to say “I agree, but-but-but don’t hurt me.” Moses then giggled and said “Chill Mr. Uhing, I am in character for my various governmental leadership styles paper; I am trying to write with voice!” Congrats Moses Lakabung...English Geek of the Week.

Trace Strotheide

Wore a hole in the billet of my saddle, so I moseyed on down to the local tack and saddlery shop seeking a textile strong enough to endure a fiery-eyed filly which needed a-break’n. I asked the weathered cattleman from behind the counter for a strap of rawhide, naugahyde, or chamois-hide for my pillion. The man heartily chuckled and handed me Strotheide...Trace Strotheide to be exact.  He stated that Trace Strotheide has never failed woman or man, proves toughest in the most difficult of situations (especially Vocabulary terms), and is the most trusted product by 100% of the Block 1a Seniors to always possess the correct answer. Be’ins the product carried a strong history, I purchased one...been satisfied everyday since.  Congrats Trace Strotheide...English Geek of the Week.

Andrea Clark



Once upon a time, in an enchanted forest, far-far away (obviously) lived a bright young scholar named Andreaella.  Andreaella diligently studied her fingers to the bone, often waking well before sun-up to fabricate her award winning outlines and sing to the birds. Her evil Step-Teacher, Mr. PewUhing, often punished Andreaella for seemingly irrelevant grammatical and fluency mishaps… but Andreaella continued her studies, singing to birds, and put on an apron (not really, but adds awesome dramatic effect to the story). Andreaella hoped her Prince charming would come, or the Block 3 mice would one day save her...but it never happened...she was stuck in Mr. PewUhing’s class until December (symbolically barren, cold, and harsh). Thus, the tale ends with Andreaella continuing her writing brilliance and diligence- but to no avail! Congrats Andrea Clark...English Geek of the Week!
