Ideas Man

         
            I think there should be a Phil Spector cam. It'd be a paid subscription. Not too expensive, just a few bucks a month. And once a month or so Phil would give a lecture on a topic of his choosing. I'd pay money for that. I'm sure the lecture would be interesting.
            I also think we should have The Religous Olympics. It would be a faith-based event that tested the participants' religious convictions.
            There'd be cliff diving for the novice and assorted knife games, the old hand on table game where you spread you fingers out on a table and somebody with a knife goes back and forth between the fingers as fast as they can. And knife throwing where the participant of one religion stands back to board while a knife thrower from another religion test his accuracy.
            Another event would be the obstacle course where participants would have to navigate the intersection of say, Hollywood and Highland on a Friday night. They'd be given deductions for failed good deeds, or furrowed eyebrows, or general bad attitudes due to a lack of patience.
            It would be a timed event, the better the time, the better the score. There would be an old lady crossing the street with a bag of groceries and cane that would need help. A tourist asking for directions to Santa Monica and not fully understanding the directions the first time you give them. Countless panhandlers asking for spare change, and of course, beautiful women in mini skirts at every turn. There'd be a two-point deduction for ogling the women in mini skirts. Only one point for a quick glance.
