Wiicked4u offers an inside look at this horrible disease.

Hi there. Wiicked4u here, ready to tell my story. I am a recovering anorectic (note: I will differentiate between anorectic and anorexic. Anorectic is a noun, while anorexic is an adjective). I am neither proud nor ashamed, I just am. I'm writing this article to show you what anorexia is and is not, and what it does and does not do.

Let's just start with the major one. Anorexia does not make you popular and it does not make you "hot." It makes you miserable, unattractive, and, really, a pain to be around. When I was sick, I stopped eating with my friends. It was too much of a hassle. I sat in the library, catching up on the homework I was too tired to do at night. No guy wanted me. I had the body of a 10 year old boy. And most of all, I didn't care. All I cared about was how to skip the next meal, fake the next weigh-in, lose the next pound.

Mokey6 reports on a terrible accident.

Hello this is mokey6, reporting a tragic event in Minneapolis. This horrible event took place August 1, 2007. It is probably going to be a once in a life time thing, many people say.

I first found out when I was surfing the channels for something to watch. As a went by channel 40, I quickly flipped past it, just because it was a habit. See, I was looking through the channels for around 10 minutes, and was just pressing the up button on the remote out of boredom. So at first, I didn't react to what I saw. But then. I nearly screamed.

I quickly flipped back to 40, (because by then, I had gotten to 44), and gasped. On the channel 40, (which for me, is a news channel), was a picture of a fallen bridge, that had broken in many places right into the Mississippi river.
