Short Story ( The kid who couldn't resist attention )

There was once a kid named Ralph.  Ralph was in the 8th grade and was very popular.  He was the best known person in the entire school.  He was known for all of his jokes and his very desire for sports.  When Ralph made a joke, everybody knew to laugh or Ralph would do something to embarass you, and when he played sports, he would do something to brag about it or make it look like he was showing off.

Later that week there was a new kid in Ralphs class.  Ralphs had a new target now, he was going to make mean jokes about him. They new kid, Arnold didn't mind it in fact, he thought it wasnt funny at first.  Than it just kept happening day after day, week after week, and this had been going on for about 2 months before Arnold started getting annoyed and than he ask Ralph politely as he could if he could stop.  Ralph replied with a loud and firm " No, why should I?" and he walked away.

The next day, it continued to happen.  Arnold ask him politely again and Ralph said the same thing so than Arnold asked Ralphs best friend Ernie if he could ask Ralph to stop making jokes about him and infront of everybody in the school, Ralph yells " No, I'm not going to stop making jokes about him!" and everybody turns against Ralph because they know its starting to hurt Arnold's feelings.  Ralph gave up and walked away and Arnold was happy again and he thanked everybody that helped him.

  1. Hi Ryan,

    Would you be willing to show the class how to add a page view counter to their blogs?

    I think it would be a helpful tool.

    Thanks,
