Hello people of the Villa.


NUMBER ONE:

Think Kenney is a very good friend to Rufus. They did have some rough times but, who looks at their underwear on the school bus?! Kenney is a good kid. HE is funny, smart, and is not a butt like Byron.


NUMBER TWO:

I have many siblings. I have two sisters and two brothers plus a POODLE. From youngest to oldest my siblings are Pepper, Joe, Me, Christina, Amanda, and Matthew. I never seem to get into fights with Amanda and Christina, because they are girls and do not mess up and they are always agreeable. My brothers on the other hand, think they are smart and everything so we get into fights about who knows more about that and more about this. I normally loose, considering that Matthew is in law school. Joe is use to loosing so he does not really care what happens. Many times we do what we want and so we argue in public and people look at us as if we have 123,456,789,044,444 heads. We can be a good and peaceful family though. It is like fifty fiftty. My sisters are more mature and do not act like slobs or camels. Pepper just goes where you tell him to go, eats what he should eat, go to bed when he should go to bed. Pepper is layed back and does what he should do. Basically a good life.





Well Adios! Talk to you soon!!

BUH BYE

1)I think kenny is a good friend to rufus because he trusted him that he would not steal any of his dinosaurs.(like his other friend L.J.)I also think Rufus is a good fried because he does not make fun of Kennys cockeye.

2)I ALWAYS get into fights with my brother Andy and my sister Emily. It doesnt matter who it is I fight with I always win.(of course)I don't think we will ever not stop fighting.(not kidding!)

I think Kenny is a good friend to Rufus; but he shouldn't have laughed at that one comment that the kid ont he bus made.
2 I have one sister, and we have some rough times where will get really mad and not talk for like twenty minutes, and then will come back and just laugh it off. But my sister and I love each other and that is basically all that matters!

1. I think Kenny is a good freind Rufus because he is very nice to Him like in the book when Rufus is new after a while Kenny becomes his freind when no one will.




2. I have one Sister she is 16 and she lives on the computer that is what we fight about I always lose and then I thrown down and dragged or thrown out the door. I usually go back In and just sit there until she is done she is never done.Besides that we never fight.

Hola peoples. My weekend is amazing because…. Well I don’t need to get into that! I hope that I remember to pack a snack for the meeting this week. I might bring grapes or and apple. Whoa-ray! I can’t wait till WALK-A-THON or the FIELD DAY this Friday!

A.) Absolutely Kenny is a good friend! He is so nice and patient I mean how many people would give half of their lunch to a stranger and his brother? That is so considerate and stewardship-like. I wish I would do that for someone and it would count for service hours if you ask me. They went to the car shop with each other and they went over to each others houses. Even when they played dinosaurs together they were nice to each other unlike that Larry Jones kid who probably only played with him for the stuff and to steal it. I would give Larry the old ONE-TWO! Kapoweeee. I don’t think that he would ever forget that.

B.) I have one sister and like HAH I have one little dog! We fight all the time and sometimes my mom will just give up and walk away. I would to but I kind-of would feel empty without fighting with Meredith. I sometimes insult her or trip her or something stupid but I have a reason. I ALWAYS GET BLAMED FOR EVERYTHING! It is sooooooo annoying. Even when I try to fix things about her and me I still get blamed for like hurting her or something. I think that she does it sometimes to get me in trouble or to see if she can get away with blaming for nothing and let me tell you, it almost always works. We fight about everything that we could possibly have a fight about! We fight out where we want pizza from, who’s turn is it to get to water the flowers, who gets the bathroom first in the morning, if I took her chap stick or something, who gets to use the computer, who takes out the garbage for allowance that week, who gets the last ice cream scoop, or anything that you could possibly imagine that you wouldn’t even dream of fighting which we do! I love her though. I would do anything for her and basically risk my life for her. If something happened to her I would never forgive myself and there would be no replacement so I would be in TROUBLE! Absolutely there will be at least like twenty times when we don’t fight at all. We don’t fight on holidays or vacations; we don’t fight on planes, outings because I am usually in charge will my mom will shop or something!


LUV YA ALL! GOOD-READING AND GOOOOOOOOOOD NIGHT. Good-bye and good-Riddens. How exciting... school is almost out and over. Bring on the summer time!!!!!!

No i do not think he was a good friend to rufus because he laughed at him on the bus with everyone else. I would at least try not to laugh, it may have been funny but friends are friends.


OHHH YES we fight alot. well, what dont we fight about? we fight about stuff like who gets the front seat (my sister) who broke my scooter (thomas) or whos the coolest (me). to tell you the truth, no i dont think there will be a time when were not fighting.

Hello again people who are reading The Watsons go to Bringingham.

1. Yes and No. I do think he is a good friend to Rufus since he lets him have some of his lunch. He also plays with him in those dinasour wars which are preety wierd. Actually I think that he only did one mistake which was that he was laughing at him in a joke. Maybe he probably couldnt help it. He should have went up and said sorry or something to him even though he might still not talk to you but its worth a try.

2.I allways fight with my brothers, well at least most of the time because sometimes they are nice although most of the time im the one who has to be nice to my brothers since they sometimes get really mad at me since my little brother is not the one who bugs actually, its me. Usually we fight just for fun really since were not the one who screams at each other or wrestle. We just bug each other. There is allways a time of peace with each other exept it doesent last very long.

1) Yes i do think Kenny is a very good friend to Rufus exept for that one mistake Kenny made that made Rufus and his little brother mad at him but other than that I think he is a good friend




2)Yes I always fight with my brother and my sisters but our arguement are never that serious like one time my brother and I argued about if you choke a smurf what color will it turn or something stupid like that and our aruments will go on for ever. I think the only time my sisters and my brother will not fight is probably when we are older but but for now we will probably still fight

Hi everybody,

A) I think for the most part kenny is a good friend. I also agree with David though Bbecause kenny did laugh at him on the bus. Besides that kenny has been a pretty good friend.

B)YES my brother and I get in fights all the time we usually fight about the stupidest things. If I bug him I usually end up getting beat up.

1. Yes, Kenny is a good friend.I think so because even when they had trouble getting along they stayed friends. Like when Rufus wasn't talking to Kenny they stayed friends after things were worked out.

2. Yes, my brother and I fight about stuff. We fight about touching each other's stuff, borrowing it, using it, returning it, etc. I think there will be a time when we don't fight. We already have times when we don't. We will fight more when we are teenagers but when we are adults we will have different houses and won't fight because we are "mature."

I think that Kennny is a good friend to Rufus because when they are on the bus in the morning he usually sits with him and talks to him when nobody else does. Another example form the book is when Kenny shares his lunch with Rufus and his little brother. Kenny is very excepting of Rufus and is his true friend when nobody else will be just because he is different and they don't want to b embarrased.

I have one brother and we get in fights every day and we always get over them. They usually aren't big fights but fights about small things. Most of the time we are just agry and take it out on the other person. For example: If my brother is in bad mood before he sees me he takes his anger out on me. I think when I get older and realize that I don't have to fight I probably will laugh about all of the fights tha we had and declare them pointless.

Hey people that are following up on the Weird Watsons!

~1~ I think that Kenny is a great friend to Rufus because he shares his lunch with him because Rufus and his little brother Sam are poor...:( We are all so lucky to be able to use a computer and get food everyday. It is so sad...well except for that one time when Kenny laughed at Rufus and Sam when they got teased because they shared a pair of jeans. Kenny always shares his dinosaurs and stuff and it is good that Rufus doesnt steal them like Larry Jones who steals everything!! NOT NICE!!

~2~ Well I can tell you right now my family is not exactly..well..how do you say this.. "normal"? All of us are different I mean really different. Christian is in Iraq, Darren wants to go into cosmetology school, Tim wants to go into the air force and I want to be a surgeon or a lawyer of some sort. Tim and I used to butt heads more than we do now though. He used to poke me to death, throw me down the stairs (youch!) or do the heimlich manuever when it was completely unnecessary. I guess my brother, Tim is starting to seem more mature but not completely because all men have a touch of immatureness in them. Tim has moved out now and is planning to go to UC and my brother Darren is a senior also. Sometimes Tim and I gang up on Darren...for example Darren was going to prom and I said, " Darren can you even dance?!" Then Darren started to "dance" if you could even call it that. Then my brother, Tim the comedian buts in and says..well its probably inappropriate and violates the benedictine values so I will stick to my A in conduct and say Farewell!!
This is T.R.B (6) by the way my computer was acting up :(

Hello EVERYONE! I am definatley enjoying this book, but it's just there nothing real special, but I think in Birmingham something huge will happen!
Okay. Well I don't know if Kenny is a good friend. So I decided he is. He is kind and I must agree with hah they've had some hard times, but that's what moms are for. Also relating to hah I've noticed some inapropriate useage of words. I think you've put you vocabulary past the extent it should be at. Any how Kenneth is nice to Rufus which is good because everyone needs a real friend. They haven't really talked about Rufus very much other than brief things regarding his clothes mostly. Rufus needs his own story, Rufus Comes Home. In this book he should have to leave Flint and go back to the Alabama, I think. He misses Kenny, but an unexpected thing happens to him there. He needs to contact Kenny in Flint to help, but a terrorist disabled all the phones. He makes an escape and needs to find his way back to Flint. Him and his brother must save their family or face serious concequenses. How's that for a book.
Ahh Brothers and Sisters what a strange world it is. Well it's hard not to fight with them, most of the time they egg you on. Sometimes they're just in the way and you were already in a bad mood. Fight is such a powerful word it is in my vocab quite often. We fight a lot mostly about dumb stuff. I do think some time in life we will mix and tolerate each other as we mature. More like they mature I already am so mature and have good posture.
That's all for now Folks!
Happiness is in a smile.

1) I think Kenny is a good friend to Rufus because he does not think Rufus will steal the dinosaurs from him. Kenny does not make fun of him.

2)I do have a younger brother, we do fight sometimes, but it never amounts to anything. In the end we know we are brothers and we love each other and will always have each other.

I think Kenny is a great friend of Rufus because they played with each other and got along well.
I don't have a brother or a sister to answer the second question.

I think Kenny can be a good friend to Rufus, like when he gave him his dinosaurs, but he can also be mean, like when he laughed at him about Larry's joke. My brother and I always fight. We fight about little things. Today, we fought about him throwing things at me. I think we might not fight when we grow up.

Hey, hey, hey!
1. I think Kenny is mostly a good friend to Rufus. Except for the time he laughed at him on the bus. That was so mean. He definately should not have done that. I also think that Kenny kind of takes advantage of Rufus. But, I do ahve one example of him being nice. It said that Kenny's parents always bought each kid two pairs of gloves each year. It said that after his first pair got stolen that he wore one of his second pair and Rufus wore one of his second pair.

2. OK. This is how it goes in my family. My brother and I usually don't get in fights unless it is like who gets front seat in the car. Or if Codie comes over (his girlfriend) and they go up to the park then I ask if I can go but he soemtimes says no. I get kind of mad but I don't tell him unless he asks me if I'm mad. Then if I tell him yeah i got kind of mad he'll say,"But Katie I asked you if you were mad and you said no. You should've just told me." I mean what am I supposed to do just tell him I'm mad so he feels guilty and I get what I want. Uh...no. Oh, and like Maddy I don't get blamed for everything. My brother and I get a long very, very, very well. Actually I'm a pretty good sister if I can say so myself. Like when he gets yeld at for being out with Codie to late or something like that I stick up for him and tell my parents some stupid excuse. They never fall for it. Most fo the time I get yelled at to and they say ,"Katie you stay out of it!" Then everyone's mad for the rest of the night. I hate those nights. Well, buh bye!

Hello fello book readers. 1.) I think Kenny is a bad friend to Rufus. But I don't think it was nice of him to laugh about the joke the guy said the bus. I agree with H.A.H. 6 that is not like a butt like Byron is always. I actually think he is more of a baby. 2.) OOOOOH Yeah we fight a lot. We fight whos smarter. We also fight about sitting in the front seat. Then we fight about games thatt are supposed to be fun. I think once we get older and more matured we won't fight as much. I think that because we won't see each other as much and we miss each other. Bye. Only 15 days of school left!

1. I think that kenneth is nice to rufus, but rufus ignored him the time that he laughed at him. A coulpe of weeks after, though, they became friends again.




2. I have two brothers. One of them, the older one, is almost
ALWAYS nice to me. The other one, though, is almost ALWAYS mean to me. He's always getting on my nerves, getting me in trouble, or just SLAPPING ME FOR NO REASON!! Other than that, but rarely, he is nice to me.
