We've not had any good fun contest in some time. This one like all here at misconstrued will promote creative thinking. For the First Year, its the 3rd annual letter writing Campaign.
Letter Campaign?
Yes, the objective is to write a large company or organization with an off the wall idea, and then wait for their response. Send the letter via snail mail.. for best results. Prepare your letters, and This Thursday and Next we shall display the great letters being sent out! The winner will be determined by the best response back from a company.
There is a whole book of these things too... Letters from a Nut, if you're confused refrence it.

Dear Sir,
Hello, my name is Jeremy. I have noticed for the last few years your team has been at the bottom of the standings. I feel what you need is a dynamic element to add a twist to your lineup. My proposal, a professional fouler on your team. I know this may be a new term to you, but let me explain.
I was raised in the foothills of Tennessee. We played basketball on the farm quiet a bit. Getting a black eye or a busted mouth or even knocked unconscious was just part of the game. True, this would lay people out of the game for a while. I'm no the biggest guy, so I had to learn to perform "significant fouls" but always make them look like accidents. (This is the only way I could prevent getting beat-up). I believe these skills I have refined would be well suited for your team. By performing "significant fouls" for your team, I could "takeout" key players of the opposing team (at least for a few minutes). I believe my skill of performing these "significant fouls" while creating the appearance of a non-intentional foul could be quiet useful to the Hawks.
Such Methods are already used in other sports. Adding this dynamic element, could take the Hawks from the bottom of the standings to the top! I am willing to form a contract at the low end of the contract spectrum. Therefore, I believe the best explanation of what I will bring the team is an amazing bargain for my dynamic unique talent.
Please contact me ASAP so I can plan for the next seasons games. I wear a size 11 shoe, have a 34 waist, and usually wear a medium jersey. (Although an NBA medium may be different). I figure you will need this information when getting my jersey for next season. I am willing to go by a made up name to if you think it will be more NBA like... maybe Massacre Myers or Jerm Warfare. I also am willing to support any endorsements you would like to take advantage of.
Look forward to working with you.
Sincerely,
"Jerm Warfare"

You have an employee, whose name I will leave anonymous, who I think would be ideal to send to Mars as one of the first inhabitants. I know this would be a huge undertaking but he is a little out there already so it might be easier than you think. I know you may need him here on earth but he is quite allergic to the planet and would probably work much better from Mars. I'd appreciate your consideration and would like to make Food City available for some of the needed sponsorship funds since the expedition will have worldwide media involved.
Sincerely,
Stephanie Erdeljac
