great
I actually saved the essay that I wrote for VCU as an example of when they say write about anything, it means write about anything! (and I was accepted. The interviewer told me she had a refreshing surprise when she read this...)
Concerning Weathermen
I wonder, as I take a break from reading Lord of the Rings, whats it like being a weatherman? Lets ponder for a second. Can you think of another profession where you get to dress like a mafia don, play with incredibly expensive equipment, even say neat words like cumulonimbus, and yet, have almost no accountability for what you say? Weathermen have it good, and they do a fantastic job of keeping the details of their operation in the dark. However, there is a downside. They pour their hearts and souls into their work, yet the topic of their toil never emerges amongst laymen unless there is nothing else to talk about. I wonder if there is a National Weathermens Convention an event where fellow climate brethren journey from all walks of the land, gather in a luxurious hotel, and discuss the weather intentionally. If there is, by gale-force, Im going to go one day! Ill stand and give our valiant meteorological soothsayers an intense round of applause. O wise weatherman, bravo for warning your flock of the approach of the angry neon green radar splotches, we heed. Duly shall our umbrellas cast asunder thy watery projectiles!
Thank you.
Incredibly risky. But I knew it would at least turn heads.
