He was born in Refugio, Texas; on January 31, 1947 when he was growing up he had 5 other siblings.

If you like sport books this is a very good book because it’s about his accomplishments in the MLB.  http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/r/ryanno01.shtml
 

Romeo and Juliet

In Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare it seemed like it was a tragedy more than a comedy. It seemed like a tragedy because there was a lot of drama and the two families disliked each other. When people say it’s a comedy I don’t get where they got that from because nothing seems funny in the play except some words. There are a lot of deaths in Romeo and Juliet including Romeo and Juliet and Paris and Lady Capulet and Tybalt and Mercutio. Romeo and Juliet are in love and there love last through the whole play.

                If you like dramas this is a good play to read for you because there is love and tragedies. In the end Juliet gets sleeping poison so she fakes her death so she doesn’t have to marry Paris. Romeo finds out she is dead and decides to kill himself with poison and burry himself with Juliet. But when he goes to do that he runs into Paris and they get into a fight and Romeo kills Paris.
