The Summer Reading Program is good, but I'm not winning a lot of prizes because my local library doesn't have any of the books I want to read...It's devastating.

Ya, DOGObooks has a borrow or buy ebook option and it goes through a thing called Overwatch

I've never tried that before, how does it work?

Aw, that stinks! If you can’t find any books at ur local library maybe you can look into ebooks! That’s how I usually find newer books that my library doesn’t have. Good luck finding books!

That bites. I hope you find some good ones soon!

I hear a lot of DOGO kids here go to a lot of Summer Camps over the entire summer. You guys in the States are soooooooo lucky!

I live in Alberta Canada. Like we have camps but not the all-summer-long ones

What do you think about the "States"? What are they like? (I live in them but the only people I know who don't live in America grew up in America.)

I live in the States and i have never gone to an overnight camp

Oh, yeah. Where are you from? I live in the USA.

I go to Edinboro in Erie every summer. It's only for a week though.

You don't go to any Summer Camps where you live?

You're not in the states? Well I'm not either. I'm just doing the camp on vacation to the US.

Reply if you have moved up at least three DOGO point places in the last week!

Yes I actually moved from rank 31 to rank 27 overnight!

Okay here is a riddle... Imagine you are in a room with no doors or windows, no weak points in the walls, ceiling, or floor, nothing. All you have is a flowerpot. How do you get out?

@bean_boy was right! You stop imagining!

there could be a escape hole under the flower pot

what they said. just stop imagining

Wp stop imagining XD break the wall with imagined super strength.

Um... It was built around you?

Easy just stop imagining!

LOL I reread it and got it (what you are saying)

Do you break the pot and use it as a shovel to get out the wall? (Just guessing...)

Im guessing in the flowerpot is some plant that will help u get out or somethin? I give up!! Whats the answer?

Hey guys, you know that whole Yanny vs. Laurel thing? Which do you hear? I can hear both.

I hear 100% yanny! Which is crazy cuz isnt it actually Laurel?

Yeah it is. Some girl looked up the meaning of Laurel on this site and it said it out loud to her, except she heard Yanny, so she compared with her classmates and they all heard different things, and then it became this big phenomenon.

Wow I didn't know that was what happened to start the "Yanny v.s. Laurel" battle! That's so interesting! I wonder how she feels now...

SAME!! I can kind of warp my brain to hear either, or both. That sounds confusing, I know, but I'm not alone on that thought! :)))

I find that more guys hear Laurel and more gals hear Yanny.

~_~ it means if you hear laurel your ears are older if you hear yanny than you ears are younger.

Really????? I think I have hearing problems.... better go check my ears....

Supposedly... but I heard Laurel my first time and my dad heard Yanny... so I don't believe that hypothesis.

It's SO weird! I can hear both and Laurel is like this deep man voice, and Yanny is this annoying voice like someone pinching their nose and talking.

I hear: ¨Yanny ... ... ... Yanny.¨ My dad hears: ¨Yanny ------------ Yanny.¨ My mom hears: ¨... Laurel ...¨

I hear 100% Yanny! No matter how much I try to convince myself its definetly Laurel, all I hear is Yanny!

I heard only Yanny at first and then I watched the video and plugged in headphones. After I put earbuds into the jack I heard Lauren and Yanny. (Actually, I hear Yammy)
