I'm giving away $50 in Amazon GC's.

I need How-To articles. Original ones. So... I'm having a little giveaway. The best original how-to article on any subject that's emailed to me will win $50 in Amazon GC's. Emailing it to me gives me permission to use it on my site, with you listed as the author. Examples might be: How to tie a tie. How to remortgage your home. How to overclock your system. What do you guys think about this? Maybe run this till August 31? Be creative and do try to think about such things as spelling and grammar. (Which is why I'm NOT writing this stuff.) Thanks! Maggie P.S. No how-to articles on how to pick your nose or anything. lol [This message has been edited by MaggieOK (edited 08-12-2000).] __________________ How about "How to Prevent Totalitarian Government?" :0) __________________ Hehe, nice idea although I don't think I'm qualified to write any "How to's" except maybe for one: "How to be a loser" Yeah, maybe I'll write that one, yeah... __________________ Okay, like NO ONE has submitted one yet. I guess I'll have to keep my $50. __________________ How to drink lots of beer. __________________ There ya go, Maggie! I sent you one!! __________________ I could post how to perform a cardiocentesis with a straw, a ballon, and a plastic bag! ------------------ Ço£o§§ü§ - yeah you can read into it... __________________ I'll be happy to send you a how-to article on how to make money writing emails from the privacy of your own home! Just send me $5 and I'll send you an email telling you how! (sigh) Anyway, 9 or 10 years ago, in college, I was forbidden from giving a how-to speech in my required communications class on how to commit various acts of phone fraud. In fact the school was so desperate to keep me from giving the speech, that they gave me an A for _not_ giving it. They wouldn't even let me present it to just the instructor. __________________ Cool, You just gave us great ideas on how to get A's in class. I think I will present how to plant, nurture, harvest, and smoke pot in my Biology class. They want the development cycle of any living organism. I'll even bring samples in. ------------------ §=-Sp34dFr34k-=§ __________________ Naw... actually, I don't do that stuff (smoking). I despise it. My guide titled "The easiest way to earn Free Amazon.com gift certificates" will be in the mail soon, Maggie. ------------------ §=-Sp34dFr34k-=§ __________________ The pathetic thing... only two people have sent in their articles. UGH. Can't even pay people to do it. I also added a thingie where you WILL get $5 in Flooz if your article is chosen to be included in the site. And maybe the $50 too... but it's still not helping get submissions. __________________ patience Maggie, patience. Remember, you're actually asking people to do something to earn the $50. LOL. that takes effort. Give it a little time. __________________ Give me until tomorrow (when I'm back in the office) and I'll write you a passel (sp?). Patience, grasshopper. __________________ hmm How-to is soo vague. there are so many how-to sites with good essays that it is hard to tell if it is original. haha I don't know want to do a how-to on. maybe effective way to search the internet =P __________________ Hey I'll do one...
