PAUL BUNYAN by Jaime Mata https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3 Made with Padlet en-us 2019-04-20 14:01:07 UTC 2019-04-26 17:23:37 UTC hello@padlet.com “Whoooooooshh” is the noise that the snow made every single morning here in Alaska. Every single morning I wake up with an aching back and legs because of all that hard labor work I used to do back in the day callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856252 SOUND: wind blowing]]> 2019-04-20 14:08:54 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856252 Making the foundation of the United States sure was hard! callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856392 2019-04-20 14:11:09 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856392 I bet you are all wondering what I am doing here in Alaska. Well I will tell you...why I came all the way up north. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856454 2019-04-20 14:12:27 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856454 I was born in a small town called Bangor, Maine. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856618 2019-04-20 14:15:29 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856618 Apparently I was hauled over here by 5-10 giant birds. I was standing at about 5 feet tall at my first week of birth. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856699 Sound: tweeting]]> 2019-04-20 14:17:06 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856699 I did not have any real parents. Most people say I was a giant miracle callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856859 2019-04-20 14:19:57 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856859 The whole town loved and cared about me they knitted my clothes and made me giant meals. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856965 2019-04-20 14:21:48 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352856965 However once I started to get older I realized how many resources I was depleting. I would make other people suffer just so I could eat in my town. My people did not deserve this callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857062 2019-04-20 14:23:41 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857062 That is when I decided to go to Minnesota so I can start my own civilization callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857239 2019-04-20 14:26:27 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857239 However before I left the people of my town offered me the best gift I could ever ask for. They offered me a giant double header ax. I took it without a hesitation but one thing I am yet to understand is why of all things would they give me an ax! That is so dangerous for a young man. However at the time I did not think much of it. I somehow knew that ax would have a great meaning in my life. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857282 2019-04-20 14:27:32 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857282 So as I started to Minnesota I chopped every single thing I saw in sight no matter what it was. I destroyed towns on top on towns with my ax. I was an out of control kid! callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857347 2019-04-20 14:28:50 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857347 Finally on my way to Minnesota I was stopped by some nice men who also owned axes. They called themselves lumberjacks. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857459 2019-04-20 14:31:07 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857459 They dressed in flannel button up shirts and they had hair from head to toe callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857565 2019-04-20 14:33:06 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857565 They stopped and talked to me with a strict tone. They said “Are you the man who has been destroying all of the of the middle of the US of A”. I responded umm yes I am just testing out my new ax. The men were very furious with me and they threatened to take away my new ax and burn it if it did not use it properly. . callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857673 2019-04-20 14:35:12 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857673 So from then on these kind Lumberjacks taught me the business of lumber.And before you know it I was cutting down all the trees of the Northwest side of the United States callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857943 2019-04-20 14:40:50 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352857943 I became a celebrity across the country. It fueled my energy. As I grew older I became more experienced with helping out people. I felt like I finally found my calling. Everything was going amazing. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352860955 2019-04-20 15:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352860955 The only problem was that I had nobody to share my triumphing moments with along with that feel good feeling of helping others. I continued to work through my loneliness callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861054 2019-04-20 15:26:08 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861054 One very cold day I set out to clear the Southwest when I heard a noise of what sounded like a “mooooooooo”. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861127 Sound: MOOOOOO]]> 2019-04-20 15:27:07 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861127 I looked all around until in the corner of my eye I saw a blue ox. He was small. I figured he must have turned blue because of the extreme cold. He was literally frozen solid callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861221 2019-04-20 15:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861221 In all honesty my first thought was wow. That looks like some good protein. My first intention was to eat him. I put tied up on top of the fire held up by 2 sticks callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861513 2019-04-20 15:31:15 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861513 I tied up on top of the fire held up by 2 sticks.However my knot must have not been tight enough because he fell right onto the fire! callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861607 2019-04-20 15:32:36 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861607 I thought he was dead meat but instead he sprang up and gave me a big ole ox kiss. I was so amused by him I decided to take him with me to be my companion callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861890 2019-04-20 15:35:29 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352861890 I fed him almost as much as I fed myself and before you know it he was huge! callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862327 2019-04-20 15:40:59 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862327 Together we did some pretty dumb stuff but we also did some pretty amazing things too. Like that one time we helped those real nice loggers by unjamming the river, and that one time we both made the whole Mississippi river. I am telling you we were some team callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862475 2019-04-20 15:43:28 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862475 We even made a little bit of the rocky mountains that one time we were rough housing. Man those were the days. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862560 2019-04-20 15:44:54 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862560 We eventually did so much we overslept on for 3 months! callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862651 Sound: Snoring]]> 2019-04-20 15:46:45 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862651 And then when we woke up and there were so many new contraptions! It was like I slept for 10 years! callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862780 2019-04-20 15:49:07 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862780 I was so scared. Babe and I went into the city and to my surprise everyone looked very scared of me. . I do not know if it was my enormous height, the blue ox, or the bugs and snakes that were crawled onto my beard during my sleep but everyone was terrified. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862846 2019-04-20 15:50:15 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862846 I tried to explain who I was but nobody seemed to remember. We were driven out of every city we came across. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862952 2019-04-20 15:51:54 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352862952 Babe and I, the people who made the foundation of the United States have been forgotten. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352863053 Sound: Upsetting music]]> 2019-04-20 15:53:25 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352863053 A couple weeks later we decided to go up North to Alaska and start a new legacy. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352863612 2019-04-20 16:02:52 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352863612 Here Blue was lucky enough to find himself an ox of his own. Together they started a family callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352863670 2019-04-20 16:03:43 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352863670 As for me, I am still trying to help people to the best of my abilities. I am mining oil, building houses, helping the elderly get around, I am doing everything I can to help people in need. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352863931 2019-04-20 16:08:06 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352863931 Day by day I look at my ax hung up in the wall in the living room of my home. I just reminisce of the times Blue and I had. callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864043 2019-04-20 16:09:49 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864043 Each day I get more and more tempted of picking that up and going out to clear the forests callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864153 2019-04-20 16:11:18 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864153 Unfortunately, I hear people are running out of trees to cut. I feel like someone should go out and replant those trees… I feel like the person responsible for cutting them down should be responsible for that … “BLUE, we are going out!” callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864186 2019-04-20 16:11:49 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864186 CREDITS callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864539 Music: Paul Bunyan theme song]]> 2019-04-20 16:18:23 UTC https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864539 Paul Bunyan: Opening Scene callmejaime11 https://padlet.com/callmejaime11/afi4bg0lv1z3/wish/352864965 By a fire in Alaska
