The story was about a mother named Lori Drew that wanted to know about what Megan Meier's opinion on her daughter that lived 4 houses down from her. She created a myspace page that was a fake one. It was registered under a Josh Evens which Megan though was a real person. They talked in a flirty way for about a year and then one day "Josh" started saying horrible things to Megan. Megan got so upset that she ran into her closet and hung herself with a belt. Ms. Drew felt horrible about what she had done. When the police found out they could not do anything about it because there was no sentence for harassing someone over the computer. Then the Drews asked the Meier's to store a Foosball table and the Meier's agreed. There was so much fury in the Meier's that they took a sledge hammer and started hitting the table. Then they took that parts and threw them in the Drew's driveway. The reason that Lori wanted to know what Megan though about her daughter was because the daughters had recently stopped being friends because Megan moved to another school. Megan stopped being teased about her wait, lost 20 pounds, and joined the cheer leading team.
I think that the story is really bad. I think there should be a law against cruel harassment. If something like this happens, the court should be able to think of a consequence and use that against them. I also think that the court should also be more ready for this kind of thing because it happens a lot and there should be something done about it. Lori Drew should be put in jail because of verbal harassment. The police should have been able to arrest Ms Drew because this is something cruel and should not be able to do this.

I agree with Daniel. There is not a lot of good books these days, and the ones that are o.k. are like 50 years old. I think that there should be more young authors because they know what we like to read. Most of the books adult authors write are not good because they don't know what to right. The reason i don't like to read a lot is because all the books are no good. Some of the books are good but those are for girls only. There are no good boy books out there because the ones that are written are by adults and they don't know what they are doing.
If i were to write a big series of books for boys, i would write about a huge storm that destroyed or a time that i went and shot a big deer or something that would get his attention. I would also write about something that was a really funny thing, not some chezzy joke that i told in 1st grade. Boys like stuff that Jeff Foxworthy, Ron tater salad white, of Larry that cable guy says because that is crude and that is what makes boys laugh. If that was what they wrote now then there would be a lot more guys reading. The girls i wouldn't really have to worry about because they have all of there gossip and girly books.
