Firetrucks too heavy for old bridge

The state of Georgia has given Rockdale County government less than two weeks to solve the problem of the Yellow River Bridge being unsafe for heavy vehicles. As a result, firetrucks will not be allowed to drive across the bridge on Irwin Bridge Road. This major corridor to North Rockdale will have fire service delayed while firetrucks are rerouted to other longer routes.

Hero? By:Lindsay

Hero?

Have you ever thought about your hero? A hero is someone that you look up to because of qualities and achievements. A hero can be a female or a male although a female is called a heroine.Colin Powell is my hero. He is my hero because he's done many things in his life that are amazing but one thing I admire the most is that he's the type of man that is willling to give up anything and do anything to reach his goal. I would love to be able to do that. Another thing about Colin Powell is that when he was a small boy he lived in New York City and was very poor and now he is at the Presidents right hand as Secretary of State. I certainly could not do that. Colin Powell did many things but I think it's amazing knowing the way he was when he was younger and where he is now.

War against Iraq by Lindsay

It's scary but we shouldn't mess with other people's business about the case against Iraq. Here are some reasons we should not go to war. The reason we should not go to war with Iraq is because we are not in any immediate danger. We have no proof that Iraq has an Atomic bomb. We are too busy with the war on terrorism to be in another war against someone half-way around the world. Whether or not you think we should or shouldn't go to war against Iraq, that is your opinion.

Lindsay s' Thoughts

Hi, this is Lindsay
We are writing down our thoughts on the Newsquest writing group the only thing I have to say is that this is a wonderful group. The only downside is that we have diffucult homework some of us need a challenge so we don't become . Also you get to think outside the box. We also get new brain wrinkles. Those are my only thoughts.

gotta go ,Lindsay

P.S. Another thing I enjoy is I can share my writing with other people and have them respond and say what they think.

Hi I'm Lindsay,Could you imagine stepping outside and it was raining cats and dogs. That's how the people in the following states felt ... Louisianna, Alabama and Mississippi. I would hate to be a citizen of those destructed states. How would you feel if your house was swept away by that jeopardous storm ? There is another story that took place in Rockdale County,Georgia which is where I live. There was a behanded man found in the woods about four miles from my house. Talk about scary. They found his hands about a mile where the body was found. The body was brought in from Dekalb. They have convicted the killer.

Well gotta go
