Free Write 5-9
This is the last free write of the class. I feel as though this is something that has benefited me as a writer and has allowed me to express my feelings towards differnt ideas by writing. I believe this has helped me become a more effective writer on the fly which in certain situations in life can be beneficial. I am currently planting my elderberries and am loving the rain due to the fact that they are sensitive the first couple weeks after being transplanted so this is a very good day for me. I feel as though I am a very lucky person to be in the position I am in. I have talked about my elderberry thing in the past and am still working on that but currently am working on another deal that will build and distribute a new ambulance piece. This piece came to my mind sitting in class one day and I did the research through pattent offices and a patent lawyer and they say their is nothing out their like it. I also went to ambulance manufactueres to try and find the product and they dont have it either. It is a suspension system unit that goes underneath the cot between the floor and the cot that when the ambulance is moving becomes an air ride individual cell inside the ambulance. This will be very affective in transporting long distances or for broken bones and neck and back injuries. The number one complaint of people who ride in ambulances is that they feel every bump in the road and it shakes them to their core. I feel for these people becasue most of them are going through a tramatic experience and need to be allowed some sort of comfort. The product will be developed in the next three or four months hopefully ready to be unvailed at the Las Vegas EMS convention the first part of September. I and my partner are really hoping this does what it could and we can becoem leaders in ambulance parts manufacturing.

Free Write 4-4
I did not sleep very well last night. I got a call from my grandpa who is very involved with me starting my new company. He is a very successful business man himself but has never played at the level I am about to get into. I am his only grandchild besides two step granddaughters so I get a lot of attention. He started with asking me my goals and what each individual brings to the table in the current deal I am working. I had to think about it and I came up with a list that closely resembled what he has done. He then asked what each of the individuals wants that are getting into this deal. I answered with a somewhat different approach then he had but I ended up going with his. Once I found out these details the whole thing started to play out. I realized that what each person wanted and what I wanted fell into place with with the strengths and weaknesses of what each individual possess. I then got to look at percentage of each company and what they would want in return. I found that I would get to get a piece of everything with the percentage scale I set up. The lady wants a $200,000 share bought to enter into her company which would give us 20%.

Today is a crappy day outside. The weather is just nasty. It is sleeting and raining and about 34 degrees. I love having the rain but could it not wait 4 or 5 days before it comes again. I am really looking forward to spring and the warm weather. This spring will be a busy one for me but I am looking forward to the challenge that is will put upon me. The Cardinals started their season last night and they looked alright but got the loss to a good Arizona team. I hope that Wainwright can get is stuff together and be the pitcher he was 3 years ago before Tommy john surgery. Last weekend was Easter and I had to visit with lots of family. Now I like to do this but after a whole day with some of the family that you font want to be around your ready to be back to normal and I was. I fortunately got to watch the college basketball games to pass some of the time and ignore some of the endless chatter that was going on around me. The injury that Kevin
Ware suffered was terrible. He broke his leg in a way that I have never seen before and had to be taken by ambulance to the Methodist hospital there in Indianapolis. There was some good news today though, he had a successful surgery and will be able to leave the hospital today. He also should be able to play basketball again at some point in the future. This weekend is the final four along with the division II and III championships in Atlanta. My grandpa and I are planning on flying down on Saturday and watching the Drury game because admission is free for whoever shows up and he is a graduate of there. It should be an interesting game because everything that I have heard is the other team is very good and Drury is the underdog. I hope that they get the win so the trip will be worthwhile.
