ideas happen?

Basically, at this website, people can submit ideas for what they could do with $25,000. They will be awarding 12 people with $25,000 to go toward making their ideas happen.

I'm intrigued with this idea, and whether any of us would ever have a chance to get one of our great ideas to fruition. I'd love to see what kind of ideas you kids would have...

I think I'm going to pitch the idea that I (and Brendan and Phil) have been toying with for years, to open an independent movie theatre in the area between Los Angeles County and Orange County, where we show indie, classic, and foreign movies. Right now, I have to drive 30 miles to see lesser-released movies, and I know that since our area is so full of college students (Whittier, Biola, Fullerton, and more), there are plenty of people who would be interested in something like this.

I'll probably never win, but at least I can say I did SOMETHING towards my dream. It's the only thing I've ever felt slightly passionate about doing.

oooh! Yeah, go for it. You're more eloquent than I am, so I'm sure you'll do a great job of it. And hey, never say never....
