Magic Box
Around the town of Stratsonville, Alabama deep in the south there has always been a legend of a strange box that had can invoke great wonders. The box was said to be in the keeping of a crazy old wizard named Majular that was immortal. But of course no one really knew any truth about this legend though. Lars thought he did though. He would try to entice us with his story of Majular. "That old timer could vanquish you with the touch of a finger", Lars would say. He always talked about finding the truth out about this and settling the legend forever.

Ever since Lars moved here from Detroit he seemed to get us into troubles and he really did it this time. He would always say, "C'mon G-dog its all fo a little fun."
It was on a dark and cold Thursday night when Lars convinced Ozzy, Steve, and I to enter the forbidden forest with him and steal the box from Majular. At first I told him, "Why does y'all want to get into this nonsense"
So we treaded through the filthy swamp and made our way along until finally we came to the home of Majular. It was a small run down log cabin that looked as if it could have been a few hundred years old. Lars decided he would be the one to go get it because he thought himself the strongest and bravest. He snuck in through the window and ended up in a room with the most wretched smell. He looked around the house and it seemed to be empty. Steve, Ozzy, and I watched from a distance and tried to be as quiet as possible. Lars opened a final door with a blinding green light shining through it. He came closer and picked up what must have been the box. I watched as he opened it and then disappeared. We quickly decided to go in and get Lars. As we wandered in the cabin Majular popped out of a cloud of green smoke.
"None shall ever pass the almighty Majular", he blasted at us. He was easily 8 feet tall with gray hair down to his knees and brown fingernails that were as sharp as a

    The main problem in this Platinum case is the decision whether or not to single source to Jabaking with the expansion of printing equipment. Because Conrad of Jabaking was instrumental to helping Platinum find their feet and establish its ground in the printing industry in 1992 does not necessarily mean Platinum press has to be indebted to Jabaking thirteen years after. Even though Conrad has always hinted Jim Hicza since 1992 that he expects that Platinum will reward them for the favour in future, business decisions have to made at crucial times even as long term business relationships still has to be sustained.

    As a child fairytales was the only things that I read and even watched. I imagined many worlds of magic and fun. To me, fairytales and magic should be a part of every child’s youth. The reason is, with fairytales, they are the starting point to a child’s creativity and imagination but are also taught lessons in everyday life. As a child those lessons in the beginning are hard for then to comprehend as they are not fully capable to understand the lessons and meanings in the stories, but as they get older they become wiser and are able to understand the deeper meaning of the fairytales and what effect they had on their lives.…

There is only one hallway in the basement, that leads to the only classroom and back to the elevator, or stairs. The classroom is dead ahead. Mr. Fiedler must have let us out really early. I reach the door, it has the body of an oval, with two black windows, but you can’t see anything through them. The door is scorching hot with a massive layer of ash. Scarcely attached to the door, is a charred Christmas wreath buried behind dozens of murky chains. Cautiously, I grab my plastic flimsy ruler. Snap! I break the ruler on my leg, holding my fingers as distant as I possibly can, I swiftly open the door, with only half, of the injured ruler…
