Plagiarisum

I believe we need to cite our sources due to the fact that you should never give someone credit if you are using their words. They put a lot of thought and time into what they want to say so they should get credit for that. It sounds to me like it would be the same thing as a copyright infringment, and for that you can be taken to court and sued. I think if someone were to use something I said without giving me credit I would be very upset. When I write something it is my thoughts and if someone has the same ideas but like the way I said it then I should receive credit for it.
As for in the real world unless it is put down on paper by you I think it may be hard to prove plagiarism. It seems the rules that should apply to everyone in every aspect of life, but it don't seem to work that way. I guess by using pictures of you coul be considered one type of plagiarism, That you can prove is you and if there is no wavier to put up the pictures then the person doing so could be sued by you. I think a lot of plagiarism occurs on such sites as You Tube and Wikipedia. These sites do not give proper credit to the person or person's saying what they are using.

On a personal note I would just like to say I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas, and that you are enjoying your holiday. This is a time to let everyone just how important they are to you and that you are glad they are in your life. Life is short and you never know when someone you love will be taken away from you. Make sure you tell everyone you love them everyday so that if something were to happen to them they would go knowing that you love them. Have a blessed New Year and may 2010 be an awesome year for you!!!!
