Hurricanes in USA
Contest Directions: Unless you live (like I do) in dimly lit apartment totally isolated from the outside world, you have seen the TV weather reports (on EVERY DAMN CHANNEL) with warnings of Hurricane Ernesto approaching US, reaching Category 3, and thinking about making a stop in hurricanes' all time favorite 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 times and still keep their jobs. So if weathermen tell you Hurricane Ernesto will visit the US with predicted destructions of twice the Hiroshima blast, you can go straight to "predicted" eye of the hurricane which will be the damn 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 damn comics this planet ever produced. Every day 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 usual vacation pictures people are taking (Hey, I've been HERE, and here, and HERE, look!) Either hurricane itself, or destruction from the hurricane has to be included in your entry picture to quality. Make the pictures postcards-like and write the 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 to 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.

This contest is fueled by the following news:
Ernesto, a Hurricane gaining strength in the central Caribbean, is heading towards Jamaica on Saturday. Ernesto threatens to enter into the Gulf of Mexico, being the first hurricane of the 2006 season that could become a Category 3 hurricane. Ernesto might become a Category 3 hurricane by Thursday. It may be headed for New Orleans. Hurricane Katrina, another Category 3 hurricane, struck New Orleans nearly one year ago. John Cangialosi, who is a meterologist with the National Hurricane Center, said it does look like Ernesto will hit the United States somewhere. The storm's winds are expected to reach 60 miles per hour by late Saturday.
