Hi all,
Sorry for the long wait for those of you who participated in my last contest. As always, I've got to balance out my work load, and in some cases, it is fair to say that my work takes priority over poetry soup. Anyways, I will be more punctual with this contest, which is also the second of my 'interesting contest' (occurring in every third contest). I will also be introducing 3 advanced topics over the 7 common topics. Please continue reading for more details.

1. include your name

3. any over-inappropriate content (this rule applys for all of my contests, but especially for my interesting contests).
