Contest Directions: Unless you live (like I do) in a dimly lit apartment totally isolated
from the outside world, you have seen the TV weather reports with warnings of Hurricane Ernesto approaching the US,
reaching Category 3, and thinking about making a stop in hurricanes'
all time favorite place New Orleans. Before you start panicking and packing
your suitcases however, I wish to remind you that weathermen are the
only creatures on earth that are wrong 80% of the time and still keep
their jobs. So if weathermen tell you Hurricane Ernesto will visit the US
with a predicted destruction of twice the Hiroshima blast, you can go
straight to the "predicted" eye of the hurricane which will be the
safest place on earth. Hurricanes like to watch weather forecasts the
same way we watch late-night shows, and they see weathermen as the
best comics this planet ever produced. Every day the weather forecast
is like David Letterman's Top 10 List. Hurricanes don't want their
comic idols to get fired however, so every once in a while (yes,
those are the 20% we talked about) they give them a break and go to the
places predicted by weathermen. This time Hurricane Ernesto is
"supposed" to visit several states/places in the US - sort of a
vacation trip for a foreign hurricane. In this contest you are
asked to show what places in the US Esnesto may visit by showing
"vacation photos" of Esnesto at the US places/states it visits -
similar to the usual vacation pictures people are taking (Hey, I've been
HERE, and here, and HERE, look!) Either the hurricane itself, or the destruction from the hurricane has to be included in your entry picture to qualify. Make the pictures postcards-like and
write Ernesto's impression of these places on the postcards. If
you want to go even further you may address the Ernesto' postcard
messages to any famous person... or another hurricane.
E.g.
"Hey, Katrina, Greetings from Florida! Just a short stop here, as I hate their giant insects. If you ever stop here again, don't make eye contact on people - this is asking to be mugged.
~ Ernesto"
P.S. If you run short of ideas, think of trailer parks. Hurricanes and
trailer parks are naturally attracted to each other, sort of like
Paris Hilton and STDs.
