somthing's wrong-cant get color-i will put*

Mr. Maxwell said he would give 5 points to who ever grades my essay since I wasn't in class on Thursday. I would also appreciate it =D

Everybody is a sucker. Everyone gets tricked or played at least once in their life. Whether its *threw the Internet or just walking down the street, its going to happen. People are not the only ones who get suckered, animals do too. People always play tricks on their pets. I do it to my dog all the time.

One example of something being suckered is my dog. Whenever she wants to play with a ball or a toy of hers, I always trick her in one way or another. *The most common one thing i do is the fake throw bit, she always falls for it. Another trick I play on her is telling her that my mom or dad has her toy. Once I say that she will run off to whoever i say and wait for them to give her the toy. The final thing I do to mess with her is saying the word walk or squirrel when she is eating something she is not supposed to. Saying those two words work because she loves to go for walks and knows what it means. When I say squirrel, she thinks there is one outside and runs to a window to bark at it. Tricking my dog is fun for me and her, but its the opposite for a human to human suckering.

Another example of something being suckered is people. It happens everyday to millions of people. With the Internet being as popular as it is, it is a main source of trickery. You can receive an email saying if you do what is says, you will get money or something else. You can also be tricked when buying stuff online, specially from eBay. I have seen a picture of a purchase of a PSP box. The buyer thought he was buying the actual device, and bid over three hundred dollars for it, and won. So he just spent three hundred plus dollars for a box. This shows that you have to be careful and know what your doing on the Internet, but these kind of things can also happen on the streets.

The final example of something being tricked is a person just walking around. Anyone can be suckered while walking down the street, hanging with friends or even just sitting at home. It happened to me while I was getting gas. A guy comes up to me asking for money saying hes needs food for his kids. So I give him a couple bucks and then I see him walk in, then walk out with cigarettes. The same kind of thing happened to my girl friend. She went to the movies with a couple of friends, and a guy came up to her saying he had no money for food. So she gave him a few bucks, and when she sits down in the theater, she sees the same guy. After the movie was over, and she walks outside, she sees the guy again, but this time he is smoking a cigarette.

*People and animals alike can be suckered in their everyday lives. No matter what you are doing, someone is going to try and sucker you into doing something for them. Whether is buying them something or giving them money, its going to happen. It is impossible to avoid. It is a way of life for some people, and has been for a long time. The art of suckering is one that will be around forever.
