Creative Writing: The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway
According to the Guinness World Records the longest continuous bridge over water in the world is in the U.S. in the state of Louisiana. It is called The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway and is about 24 miles long, connecting the towns of Metairie and Mandeville.

The hardest thing to get used to when I moved to Latvia was that here in Riga there are no diners. I was a big fan of diner food. It was always delicious, plenty of it and I could get to take some home. Those who live in the state of New Jersey in the U.S. have no problems whatsoever because this state has the most diners of any state in the U.S. It also is known for having the longest boardwalk in the world in Atlantic City.

    Creative Writing: The Saga Of Old Geo

    The saga of old Geo. Ochenski continues. As Geo. sat on his rock, watching the Cadillac, getting smaller and smaller, until it was just a dot on the horizon before it disappeared over the hilltop. He sat there for some time, with his head in his hands. Contemplating, about what the elderly gentleman had said. As wheels of the mind began to turn the gears of thought, 'old Geo could almost hear them groan' from lack of usage. Suddenly the old 25 watt incandescent light bulb, lite up. Somewhere in the dark shadowy corners of his mind, stirred an almost unheard of phenomenal, reasoning was taking place. In panic Geo almost shelved it in disbelief. Slowly, oh so very slowly it came to the front of his mind. But, in the dim light of the 25 watt bulb, Geo was unable to understand it. Geo shook his head, in an effort to clear it. But, as with most things, Geo tried to do, it ended in failure. In shaking his head, Geo had accidentally turned on, the other 25 watt bulb on the right side of his brain, which he almost never used. As the light became brighter, Geo was slowly able to make out the printing in bold red, black and blue crayon, the words on the jello (sic) paper he was holding. It said, in bold…

    A Bridge to Wisemans Cove - Short Essay

    In “A Bridge to Wiseman’s Cove” by James Moloney, the two scenes that are most significant in the book is when Carl and Harley leaves home to live with Aunt Beryl and when they stop by The Missing Persons Bureau. These scenes are significant, as they are needed for the story to progress into what happens in the end. It is important that Harley and Carl leave because everything happens in Wiseman’s Cove, everything that is good and bad. It is also important that they stop by the Missing Persons Bureau because it explains why Kerry (mother of Carl and Harley) never came back and also explains the mysterious person in the prelude. For these reasons, these two scenes are the most significant scenes in the book.…

    Creative Writing: Mallard Creek

    I come from Charlotte, North Carolina, one of the most up and coming cities in America. My town is a beautiful, flourishing area with a lot to offer to a variety of people. With such diversification, we have not integrated our neighborhoods, schools, or the social scene nearly enough. Communities can become racially prevalent leading to separations in culture and heritage. I can see this in the high schools throughout the area during our football games or competitions which is depriving to everyone involved. Leaving people unaware of their surroundings creates a bubble of ignorance. Mallard creek provides so much culture as it is is zoned for so many areas, however, other schools are not provided the opportunity I am. As the severance continues,…

    Yesterday Glenn and I experienced Loon Lake here in Northern California, and man was it a great experience! Loon lake is located in Northern California and is adjacent to the legendary Rubicon Trail. Our day started with meeting at In N Out in Auburn CA at 4:30 a.m.....well I was there at 4:30; Glenn showed up around 4:50 but I can say it was fashionably late, at least as fashionable as a person can be that early in the morning. During my twenty minute wait, surprisingly I wasn't alone at this In N out. There were about three vehicles I spotted while sitting on the trunk of my Toyota Solara drinking my morning coffee as I thought to myself...what good reason could someone have for being at a random In N out at such a random time? Keep in mind…

    Creative Writing: America Great Again

    How could he just treat us all like we were cattle as if it was nothing? The speedometer crept up to 60 miles per hour. Didn’t he care that people everywhere were starving? How could he do this? When he was elected he promised that he would Make America Great Again. 70 miles per hour. I had to get to the rally. We needed change, we could be that change. 80 miles per hour. My thoughts were interrupted as my eyes caught the reflecting glow of red and blue lights paint the night sky behind me. Crap. I pulled over and turned off the car, ready to feed the officer behind me a great line about how my grandmother was on her death bed and wanted me and only me to be at her side. My eyes shifted and glanced to the side mirror, the officer straightened out his already tucked in uniform and smoothed his hands over his hair as he made his way from his cruiser. Great, I thought. I wonder how many reprimands this stiff is gonna write me up for. My record already had 14 points on it for picketing, 6 more and I’d be in real trouble. He knocked on the window…
