One of the benefits I’ve found with home schooling is that science is sometimes left up to me to determine the topic of my day (rarely, but on occasion). Today I decided I wanted to study the stars, the galaxy outside our universe and my source was an unusual but effective video that just happens [...]
I was helping out Cleve Tidwell today. What I thought was an honor is that he entrusted me with his keys to get stuff out of his car, and his camera to take pictures. I felt it to be a real honor. Cleve Tidwell is running for US Senator from Colorado. He’s a conservative kind [...]

First Tweets – 140 Characters to Twitter Bliss
Conversations with those who aren’t interested in the blog-o-sphere, twitter, tweets and peeps may not be interested in why we twitters, tweet our peeps. But, if you’re interested, here’s the scoop.
What [...]
My name is Kenton Verhoeff and I live in Lamar, Colorado. I am seriously thinking about running for mayor, because I believe I have an ability to understand those things that are wrong, and a responsibility to help refocus the direction of my community, my state and my government for the future.
I like Nelva Heath, [...]
Amy Wang has the best story. I’ll have comments at the end of all the stories so everyone knows what I think of them I’ll try and let everyone know when the book will be out.
I’m not a bird!
Occasionally, I learn a new something online. Yesterday I learned about twitter. I’m trying to figure out how to have a twitter account and I plan to have one very soon, but… Mom said I have to learn to write whatever I want to say in 140 characters.
That’s like eating birdfood. Count [...]
I keep hearing about game cheats, and I found a way to add some. It’s easy, you just go to this link – game cheats – and find a listing for game cheats. Wii solutions are on the way!
Are you sore from your last Wii session? I’d bet you’re playing too long with no breaks [...]
“From doing chores in the kitchen (Mom makes me cook dinner or wash dishes occasionally to remind me that it’s part of life), to writing my book Unikra and editing with ACE Writers, my life somehow seems fairly normal. At least I think it’s like any other 13 year old.” Says Kenton Verhoeff, Colorado’s 13 [...]
Didn’t have a specific winner as such. I’ve read all the articles and decided to go ahead and publish all in the collection. They’re all really good writing. I’m still editing and working on the book.
I haven’t decided on a cover yet. Or a name for the book.
I’m changing my internet name to Tok Smith, so if you see Tok Smith instead of Kenton Verhoeff, it’s the same person.
A seminar or conference offer opportunities to learn and make money. If you’ve never attended a conference, you don’t know what you’re missing. Learning at a multiple level event offers many specific ways to get an education and make money.
Networking with other professionals
Sometimes people leave out kids when they have an event that might include the [...]
Amache???????? ????? ?????????????? was the scene of our latest Eagle Scout Project for Riley Widener, a student at Granada High School in Granada, Colorado. You can see more about this event at The Lamar, CO USA site.
Mom has several writer buddies on the Internet who share tales of woe, plots, and characters with her when she’s writing. I’ve been introduced to some of them, via the web… And they’re all a bunch of nuts, but I love them! Recently, mom and this one writer got together and started showing off characters [...]
There once was a kid from Lamar
I know he will travel far
He is bright and cheery
He is never dreary
and his sister is a movie star!
This kid has his life in control
His Mother and God’s Soul
He is awesome in fiction
He lacks contradiction
Helping mankind is his goal.
Now realize he is only a teen
but bright as I have ever [...]
Several weeks ago, we thought we had a mouse. So, Mom set the customary traps to catch the customary mouse. Ahem…
A few days and a jar of peanut butter later we realized this couldn’t possibly be any normal mouse. He, she, or it wasn’t setting off the traps. Then we caught two of the little [...]
Some people will do anything to get their name in lights. My mom!!! OMG of all people in the world to pull this. My mom allowed herself to be interviewed by a SQUIRREL. Not even a real squirrel, this critter is a character in one of Lea Schizas books. Some character Lea dreamed up with [...]
My brother and I play this game whenever we get bored. Although we don’t have the tee shirts we saw on the movie, we walk along saying the same thing as if we did.
He usually starts with, “Dude, what does mine say?”
I respond, “Sweet, what does mine say?”
People start paying attention to us. No matter [...]
I visited the site of a friend and he mentioned that he sells ads on his website. I posted a link about selling ads on my site, and almost immediately had a few people sign up for ads. It’s cool. I post a link to your website for $10.00 a month, with a banner button [...]
