Ethan Kahn Introduction

Image
Hello! My name is Ethan      Hello ya'll! My name is Ethan Kahn. I'm a student-athlete here at the University of Oklahoma. If  you insist on knowing what sport, I'm a gymnast. I compete for the OU men's gymnastics club team.  We are 4-time national champions!  Personal Photo      Let's get to the stuff that has to do more with me personally though. I was born in Buffalo, New  York. My family and I moved down here to Norman, Oklahoma when I was 5 years old.             I have one sibling, an older brother. He goes to OU as well. My brother and I are practically  opposites. He's spazzy and extroverted while I'm calm, cool-headed and more introverted.

Rather, Titans would be a more  befitting name of those country-stomping monsters.       The 'normal' ones stood 3,000 ells (2.13 miles) in height ( The Book of Enoch - R.H. Charles  version ).

Week 13 Story: Leprechaun Gold

Image
Leprechaun Gold Leprechaun and His Pot of Gold      Setting: Northern Ireland, 1788      Peter was knitting in his farmhouse one Sunday. He didn't live with anybody and he enjoyed the  constant peace and alone time he had to himself. That's why, when Peter heard a playful knock on his  wooden door at precisely three o'clock in the afternoon, he started fuming. There were no other  people within a few miles of Peter's home in any direction and he hadn't received a visitor in years.  Just the way Peter liked it. He considered it useless to interact with other people unless one was  wealthy because, he figured, wealth was the only thing people enjoyed.       Peter certainly had no intention of interacting with whoever stood on the cobblestone steps  outside his farmhouse door. He threw down his knitting needles and stormed towards the door,  prepared to ward off...
