I have a spare ticket to see the Dalai Lama on Sept. 20th when he comes down to UT. So far some 5 or 6 people have asked me for the ticket, but I remain lazy and aloof. Since I'm in a whimsical state of mind and really have nothing better to do, I am declaring the first and only "See the Dalia Lama Essay Contest" with the reward being a ticket. Because lord forbid that I do anything as simple as "reach a decision" I am making this needlessly complex but fun for me.
Here's the rules:
The essay must involve at least two of the following elements which I am randomly selecting from Google:
1. Rhode Island
2. The Finnish Language
3. Giant Squid
4. Electrical Circuits
5. Mongols and/or Huns
6. Elephants
I don't care how long it is so long as it's funny. Basically if it would entertain me while I am eating my cereal in the wee hours of the morning, then it has found a place in my heart. Bonus points for pictures. I mean, a shitton of bonus points. Pictures a thousand words so on and so forth. All pictures is no good though.
SECRET HINT: I AM ACTUALLY JUST GOING TO BE RANDOMLY SELECTING ONE OF THE ESSAYS TO WIN, BUT I AM TOTALLY WEIGHING THE DICE IN FAVOR OF PICTURES AND AWESOME
SECRET HINT TWO: I LURV COUNT CHOCULA
LET THE FESTIVITIES BEGIN
P.S. I forgot some things apparently, the essay doesn't count unless it's posted because it's easier to scroll down a mouse-wheel than find files while eating cereal. Also I suppose the deadline is Sept. 16 because why not.
P.P.S. MS-Paint or Photoshop are acceptable alternatives to an essay but they have to have at least four out of the list.

yo
So count chocula was on his way to finnishing school in rhode island, when all of a sudden a giant squid jumped out of the ocean and tried to eat him. When he finally fought it off he pulled out his fluyte/dagger and did his thing on it, calling on the power of the elephant (the ancient beast from the middle east with teh power to move you) alls was well, when the squid suddenly struck back. ITs ok tho cuz the elephant megazord thing killed it because it hated JEWS and the squid was JEWISH. Jews suck. So the squid died and chocula and manny the elephant megazord talked for hours about how and why jews suck, when manny sneezed!! this sneeze wasnt like magical elephant megazord snot or shit like that, fuck no, this was the Mongols. Apparently on his last trip to fagland, manny snorted some come with some mongols hiding from the huns in it... they was livin in his nose fo 4 years, surviving off of the juices which chocula provided... (not going into that sexual robotic megazord sex, thoough more like masterbation since the zord is a robot... a robot with heart) and then yeah the jews sucked some more. So the mongols popped out and where so happy that the count was like "you guys are badasses, lets u get hooked up wit my cereal yo's" theys was like "word?" the count replied "Word" and it was on, the cereal eating match which the count intended on all along was a go, the mongols hadnt listened that well since the count said "he who dont eat the fastest gets turned jewish and then forced to breast feed a vacuum cleaner for 70 hours" and yeah then rhode island showed up, the count killed his friend manny and all the mongols, ended up saving the jewish religion, then killed all the christians cuz he didnt like the cover on his bible he found while rummaging through the table of his hotel in rohde island right before having sex with 23492340324 prostitutes, train of the century...-ART, dude i really wanna go to the lama guy. peace and ive been drinking MIKE MAC

JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME I POST THIS REPLY
Notice how the Mongols are attacking each other while slyly, a GIANT SQUID lurks in the background and hopes to profit from the confusion.
NOTICE HOW TINY ELEPHANTS DO THE SAME THING TO THE HUNS
IS IT CONSPIRACY
ARE ELEPHANTS AND SQUIDS REALLY - BEST FRIENDS!?
