Journal Entery May 4, 1904

Today when I woke up I could tell that it was going to be a glorious day. I woke up and put on my morning cloths and then went downstairs for a large breakfast that our maid had prepared. I had a big day planned. After breakfast I went out with some of my gentlemen friends to play a round of golf. Naturally I had to change in to my golfing entire. I had a splendid time with my friends and enjoyed lunch at the club. After lunch I returned home and was extremely pleased to find my young son talking about his future in business. It pleased me greatly to hear that my son was looking forward to a future as a successful business man. As if this wasn't good enough, today my 16 year old daughter Eave, informed me that she was getting married to a very successful business man. He was new money, his family name was not good but he had lots of money and this would help our family. I now had to go and change into my evening cloths and get ready for dinner. Our servants were preparing a great meal with only the finest of foods from across the world, as we are having guests. Dinner was excellent and I had a splendid time informing all of my friends of my daughter’s wedding plans. After our guests had left, my wife and I proceeded to change into our night cloths, said our good nights and headed off to bed. I’m sure I will sleep well tonight after such a splendid day.

The Airplane

The airplane is the machine that allows humans to fly. The invention of this amazing machine has been attributed to the Wright brothers. The Wright brothers achieved the first controlled and powered human flight on December 17 1903. This essentially was the birth of the airplane. The airplanes that we see in our skies today are essentially an extremely high tech version of the Wright brother’s flying machine. The new planes still have the same wing concept, and a newer more advanced version of the Wright brother’s three access controls. I feel that the airplane is an excellent invention that revolutionized the way that humans travel. Today the airplane is one of the most, if not the most efficient and fastest way for humans to travel long distances. The airplane allows humans to travel long distances in a fraction of the time it took before. This is because the airplane can travel much faster than any car or boat. As well it doesn’t to travel around obstacles like other vehicles thus it can travel in a straight line to its destination. Many of the same qualities that make the airplane an excellent travailing machine contribute to making it an excellent combat machine. The plane allows armies to carry a vast amount of weapons over a long distance and attack a target easily and accurately. This is why I believe that the invention of the airplane is one of our greatest advancements in travel and battle.
