   More Weight!
HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY!! ^ ^ I wanna tell you guys a little story cuz tomorrow in English class, my friend Skippy and I are gonna be laughing our asses off! First, you should know that we've been reading The Crucible in my English class(you know, the play about the Salem witch trials?). Well, when my family went to Salem over the summer, we went to the witch museum, and part of it involved the history of the incident (of course). There were scenes set up to show certain events, and there would be a spotlight and a recorded narration to say what was going on. So there was this guy called Giles Corey who --when he was accused of being a witch-- refused to confess. Instead of being hung like the others, he was pressed to death. They piled boulders on his chest and added more weight until he admitted to being a witch. However, if he had confessed, he would have been executed and his property would be auctioned off, leaving nothing to his family. So, when he was asked to confess (aye or nay), he simply replied, "More weight!" Now, that may not sound funny, but the recording in the museum was so corny and ridiculous, that my mom started laughing out loud! (Bellamy and I giggled, too, but we had more self-control!) Corey was just like, "Uuugghh...uuuugghh...more..weight! More weight!" and my mom was like, "Ahahahahaha!!!" XD The guy sitting in front of her turned around and stared, and she replied, "What? It was funny!" Heh, heh. OK, I know that probably sounds horrible, but it was pretty darn hilarious! So in the play, one of the characters is explaining how Giles Corey died, and she says that he said that "more weight" thing, and when I came across it, I started laughing cuz it made me think of the incident in the museum! So the next day, I showed it to Skippy (my mom had already explained the story to her) and she was cracking up, too! Now tomorrow, we're going to read that part, so the two of us have the strong feeling that we're going to burst out laughing! Oh, and Mom said it was OK if we explained that story to our class if we do lol. Heh, heh... yeah... I hope that made some sense... Heehee! Well, if we laugh in school tomorrow, I'll tell you about it! Hooroo for now, then! ^ ^
