Really? Free?
Yeah, free. But it would be very cool if you would donate to the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. This is the charity that the Waltz Across Texas and Texas Two Step benefited. TSRHC relies completely on donations: they never charge the patients or families. Go here: http://www.tsrhc.org/how_to_help.cfm.
Dates
Begins:
Now.
Ends:
When I get tired of it. I figure sometime after Spring 2007 (so everyone has some riding time) and some time before the end of summer 2007 (when I'll be busy for a couple of weeks). If it goes really well, I may extend it. If no one is interested, I may end it early. It's not like you have a lot invested in this.
Rules
- Find an intersection where the names of the roads/streets (excluding Road, Avenue, Street, Boulevard,. etc.) make the name of a person (not a character) in the Internet Movie Database. Names together must match name in IMDB - same spelling, etc.
- Ride your motorcycle (why do I even have to say this?) to that intersection and take a picture of the signs. Try to get all signs in one picture, but if multiple photos are required, that's ok. Signs must be readable.
- I did say intersection. So don't send me one sign that says "Elvis", "Cher", "Madonna", or "Pink".
- Send me an e-mail at cindi.knox at my gmail account with:
- A link to the IMDB page for the person.
- A link to a web-based map site (mapquest, google maps, mapsonus, etc.) that shows the intersection. (If no online maps show the intersection, a latitude and longitude are acceptable, but will be more scrupulously verified).
- A link to the photo or an attached photo (linked is preferable, please keep attachment sizes as small as possible and under 250K).
- No, you may not mail the entries to me. I have enough stacks of paper already.
- The first person to submit a valid entry for the name will receive five (5) points. Subsequent entries by others for the same name will receive one (1) point.
- I will post standings so you can have bragging rights.
- Some of the photos will be posted here.
- Do not cheat to get to the top of the list here. You will invite scorn and ridicule, not to mention being banned from many rallies for a really stupid reason.
Safety
- If you are old enough to ride a motorcycle, you are old enough to behave like an adult.
- Obey traffic laws
- Ride safe and aware
- Do not pull some stupid stunt to get to the top of the list here. You will invite scorn and ridicule.
Prizes
For free, you want prizes too? Tell you what: If you really want prizes, let me know and I'll give you a paypal address. Kick in what you will toward a prize fund (no more than $5 per rider please) and I'll buy some prizes.
