I decided to have a sonnet writing contest in the tech group I manage, requiring a $1 or equivalent entry fee for each sonnet submitted. The prize is the pot of all the entry fees, plus a diorama submitted by NY staff of a certain tech giant company in a diorama contest I ran last year amongst the various tech companies with which we spend gazillions of dollars. (The theme of that contest, which had many, many rules, was the Mamas & Papas. See here for a few images from that contest.)
With some prodding my folks ground out 20 sonnets in a couple of days. The site I'm posting them to (which will come down in a week) has become the #11 site via google for the surname of our tech-giant rep of the prize-pot diorama. (Oh, yeah, one of the rules of the contest was the inclusion of his 4 syllable Armenian surname.) It's a little odd.
