Video Game

I thought the video game article was interesting. A driving arcade game called Death Race was released. Players had to earn points by running over stick people and figures. The game stared violence in video games that had been continued to this very day. And to you I recommend ROCK BAND because you need to get better and I am better then you. You will see soon I promise you.

History

Fathers Of Confederation
Tomas D’Arcy McGee

Tomas D’Arcy McGee was born at Carlingford, Ireland, between Belfast & Dublin on April 13, 1825. In 1842 widespread hardship drove him with lots of others to America. He had an Irishman’s he wanted to talk & to write. He did them well. Tomas D’Arcy went into Journalism. In a few years he returned & worked on various Irish newspapers. Until his connection with the 1848 rebels forced him to flee to New York, where he again started writing. In 1857 Tomas was included by Irish Roman Catholics to come to Montreal to find the New Era. From Journalism he moved into politics, representing Montreal West, & found himself working with George Brown. He loyally supported the British connection & denounced Fenian extremists, near incurring their lasting hatred. Tomas D’Arcy McGee was one of the first public people to see clearly the danger that might occur to Canada at the conclusion of the American Civil War. He toured the British Provinces, fanning with his passionate oratory, the fires of patriotism for a great new nation. The only alternative to the disaster. Similar appeals appeared in his beautiful writings, historical, political and poetical. His efforts entitled him to a place in the first federal cabinet but recognizing Macdonald’s problems in the meeting religious. McDonald sent a note to Tomas D’Arcy McGee “The difficulties of adjusting representation in the cabinet from the several provinces were great and embarrassing. You’re disinterested and patriotic conduct and I speak of Tupper as well as yourself had certainly the effect of removing those difficulties.” McDonald planned to make Tomas D’Arcy McGee commissioner of patents and so provide him leisure for literary work. This was all cut so short in the early hours of April 7, 1868, when Tomas D’Arcy McGee was returning form late session that was when he was shot in front of his own house by a young Fenian Man, Patrick James Whalen.
