Why My Arms Have Lines
Submitted by trin77 on Fri, 01/27/2012 - 1:58pmI walk on the warm beach as the sand slips in between my toes. The cool breeze sweeps my face and I glance about as I get closer and closer to the vast water that surrounds the small island. The sky burns with bright reds and pinks as the four large planets paint beauty upon the large landscape. The water tickles my toes as the tide rolls up on shore.
My muscles are weak as i have just searched the small island for any other survivors. The trip was long and tiring. My eyes brim with tears screaming to fall down my face, as i know that i am the very last one standing.
I sit down on the cool sand as the water brushes my ankles. I feel a single tear stream down my cheek. I lay back and allow my eyes to close.
I stand up as I see my mother walking on the beach in the distance. This is strange. My mind races with thoughts of explanations of why she would be here, since she wasn't on the ship with the rest of the crew.

- Part One -
Once upon a time, there was a normal man who lived in a big city with shops and skyscrapers and cars. He had a normal job, a normal house, and normal friends ( except for a guy name Flippy, who liked to lick strange surfaces ). He had a relatively normal life, but not for long.
He was walking along the street to his relatively normal job on a relatively normal day that was about to get a lot less normal. He spyed a piece of chocolate that was lying on the side of the road. Not thinking, he picked it up and popped it into his mouth. He suddeny felt an odd sensation all around him. He started to run to the end of the street, and when he got there, he leaped up in the air and began to soar through the skies.
He immediately decided that he would use his newfound powers for the good of society. He flew around the city and made it a better place. He rescued puppies, roundhouse-kicked criminals, and won the hearts of the people. But that doesn't mean that there was no more crime in the city.
One day he was flying around like a winged iguana when he saw an old woman getting mugged. He flew down to the street. He punched the mugger right in the chest, threw him in jail, and gave the woman her purse back.
"Thank you, sir," the old lady said. "What is your name?"
The man had never thought of that. What should his superhero name be?
"Call me... Bob!"
"Thank you Bob!" The old woman gave him a friendly punch in the arm and ran down the street with her arms in the air.
Where I would visit
Submitted by emunukka on Tue, 01/24/2012 - 1:26pmIf I was to visit anywhere I would go to universal studios amusement park at the Harry Potter park because A: Harry Potter is AWESOME and B: I'm a nerd.also becuse i would love to be able to walk in the town of hogsmeed. If I had to pick a second place it would be the Disney animation studios and convince them to make a BOLT sequel or at least a BOLT T.V show with the storyline taking place after the movie in their new life after they quit. maby if had to think of a third would be to ask Disney to add a percy jackson part of their park ( because the book publisher is Disney Hyperion) and viset camp half-blood. maby visit the hephaestus caben or the poseidon caben. the caben would make an Omega shape in some feild it would would have a caben for each Greek god.

my town
Submitted by suzukikid741 on Tue, 01/24/2012 - 10:06amI dislike the city i live in. Half the people here annoy me and aren't very smart. If i could move anywhere out of Rutland city i would probably move somewhere warm. Somewhere like Florida. I don't like the town i live in because the people here suck, and i just hate it.
One thing I don't like about the people here is half of them are lazy and don't want to work, they just want to suck off the system. They want to sit around all day either selling drugs or doing nothing, feeling bad for them selfs. Yes I understand some people do need welfare because they have a disability. There are very few people in this town that I have respect for. 50% of the people are hard workers and 50% of the people are on welfare who don't need it.
One other thing I'd like to talk about is recreational activities. I race motocross and there are no tracks around here. But not enough people around here race so the town obviously won't build us racers a local track. I would like to get out of this town as soon as possible. There are a lot of things that could be fixed in this town. This town doesn't have much Money so it's kind of hard to do more recreational activities. Maybe if those who don't need that "extra help" or welfare, the city would have more time to fix things and have more to do.

The entire waterfront opposite Gateway National Park at Sandy Hook is a paradise of fine dining, including Windandsea.
In Sea Bright the famous McLoone's Riverside with its spectacular views and gourmet menu is a 'don't miss' experience. Its sister restaurant McLoone's Pier House in is equally delightful for dinner or banquets on the beach in Long Branch.
In Asbury Park, Carmine's Little Italy and Bistro Ole join the now renowned Moonstruck. Sea Girt champions Rod's Irish Pub and Scarborough Fair.
All up and down the Jersey Shore fabulous food abounds.
