Fishing.

Fishing is a great sport. Un-like most sports where they are phyiscal and require a ton of stamina, fishing is peaceful and anyone can do it. It's great if you are with family or friends and just need some time to relax. Here are some tips that you can use to make the most out of fishing:

* Buy a fishing license. This will help you not get in trouble, and also help the enviroment. When you buy one, the money goes to departments that help endangered species. If you do not know where to get on, check online.

* Learn how to be safe. If you're out on a boat make sure you wear a lifejacket, and make sure people know where you are at all times.

* Bring nets and hooks with you to grab on to a fish that looks like it might escape. Also grabbing their eyes can be helpful as well. If you use these methods to catch fish, make sure you don't release them back into the water, because thats cruel and they are better off dead.

* In retrospect to last weeks "how to" day, use your cooking skills to prepare a nice feast for your family or friends.

* Look up how to tie knots. This can be effective when you are tying fishing lines or knots for a boat.

* If you know someone who isn't that interested in fishing, have them play games where you can fish. Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Zelda: Twilight Princess are two great examples of fishing gameplay.

Iceman.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iceman_(comics)

Today I will be talking about none other than Iceman from the X-Men comic books. You may not know this about Iceman, but he is actually one of the most powerful mutants in the X-Men universe. He has the power to turn everything around him (including himself) into ice, but over the years his powers have progressed greatly, like when his body was able to heal itself thanks to his ice form. There isn't really much else I want to say. He is my favorite of all of the X-Men, and I am glad he was in the original trilogy. Hoping to see him again in the future with this new X-Men reboot.

Garbage Day.

This is a funny scene from the movie Silent Night Deadly Night 2. It's a good scene, but I wouldn't recommend the movie to anyone. Enjoy.

Pepper Steak.

Today I will be showing you how to make Pepper Steak. It's a great meal to have for dinner when family is over.

Things you will need:
- 1 1/2 pounds lean beef round steak, cut into strips
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 2 crushed clove of garlic
- Green onions that are sliced
- Green peppers that are cut into strips
- 2 tomatos that are diced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoon of cornstartch
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- 3 cups of cooked rice

Now to make it all is pretty easy. You just need to cook the steak until its browned, but cook it with some butter and garlic. Add the vegetables, the broth and everything left into the pan later on since you don't need to cook it for very long. When it's done, serve it with the rice. Very simple and great tasting meal, eat and enjoy.

Animal Crossing.

Today for Picture Day I will be showing you a screenshot of me and my friend playing Animal Crossing: City Folk for the Wii. I don't really like this game as much as the GameCube version, but it's still pretty cool. Mostly what I enjoy is the online part. I know a few people who play regularly and we go to each others town.

Snoopy.

I will be dedicating today's Cartoon Day to the Peanuts comics. I loveeee Snoopy so much, and I started a collection when I was very young. In total I have several plushes, a calender, a pez dispenser, a Linus blanket, some playing cards, comic strips, books, movies and other random things that are related to Snoopy.

The Peanuts comic strips ran from October 2nd, 1950 and lasted until February 13th, 2000, which was the day after creator Charles. M Schultz died. Even to this day I remember when I found out he died, because it impacted me in a great way. I loved reading new Snoopy comics, and since then there hasn't been any new ones.
