Anyone up for a filmmaking contest?

Really great math teacher, Mrs. Ballard wonders if there are Mann Show 2008 members willing to represent J.L. Mann in this video contest.

The contest aims to convince South Carolina high school students of the importance of healthy living by getting them to make pro-health television commercials. You know the deal: teens eat all this awful "food" and never exercise...and so there's this national obesity epidemic and growing rates of chronic disease. I mean, some people think it's even more serious than global warming!

Just imagine: the most unhealthy teenagers in America—video geeks—will be making films to teach the rest of us how to be, well, healthy.

So...anybody want to do this?

Am I the only one who finds it ironic that for the last four blog entries the only persons who commented were Shannon who isn't in high school anymore, and Brennan, who just tied a compilation of short stories about what she does now, to the blog theme.
I think mannshow-ians need to step it up.

Luke and I are doing a video contest. The winner gets a cool phone. (Luke needs a phone!)

Yeah...I think we need freshmen to post on here. Make them do it...for a quiz grade.

I agree that we need to get more people to look at the blog, but people shouldn't have to comment if they don't want to.
