Are You Honest?
This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving
an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.
The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which
you will have to make a decision. Remember that your answer needs to be
honest, yet spontaneous.
Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.
THE SITUATION:
You are in Florida , Miami to be specific. There is chaos all around you
caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical
proportions. You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and
you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly
hopeless. You're trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and
people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water. Nature is
unleashing all of its destructive furor.
THE TEST:
Suddenly you see a woman in the water. She is fighting for her life,
trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer. Somehow
the woman looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is. It's Hillary
Clinton! At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to
take her under forever.
You have two options:
You can save the life of Hillary Clinton, or - - - you can shoot a
dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the
world's most powerful and brilliant women.
THE QUESTION:
Here's the question, and please give an honest answer....
Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the
classic simplicity of black and white?
Mr. Hankey the Damn Yankee took the black & White!

Do I have a point-and-shoot camera or a SLR? It DOES make a difference ...

Mr. Hankey
You have gotten yourself into another situation. If only you had stayed out of Fla. You could have taken a photo of Hillary and imposed it onto a hurricane photo.
Oh! and you missed the shades of fear that only comes in color by using the black and white.
Anyway it’s all opinion, but you probably missed a winning shot like a falling tree or twisting power pole just because you were following Hillary around.
But it is your call and I say Color.

Hankey Pankey, You are at it again.
I would drop the camera and save Hillary, Barak, and John (Mc Cain). The vote is still out on Ralph and GWB. I would get the best film, camera, etc and take a Pulizer photo of Cheney going down for the third time.
How's that for honesty?

HillaryClinton was visiting an elementary school. When she
stepped into one of the classrooms, the young students
were in the middle of a discussion related to words and
their meanings. The teacher asked the President it she
would like to lead the class in the discussion of the word
"tragedy."
Our illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a
tragedy.
One little boy stood up and said, "If my best friend, who
lives next door, was playing in the street and a car came
along and ran over him, that would be a tragedy."
"No," said Clinton, "that would be an accident."
A little girl raised her hand. "If a school bus carrying fifty
children drove off a cliff, killing everyone involved, that
would be a tragedy."
"I'm afraid not," explained the president. "That's what we
would call a great loss."
The room went silent. No other children volunteered.
Clinton searched the room. "Isn't there someone here
who can give me an example of a tragedy?"
Finally, in the back of the room, a small boy raised his
hand. In a quiet voice, he said, "If Air Force One,
carrying Mr. & Mrs. Clinton, was struck by a missile and
blown up to smithereens, that would be a tragedy!"
"Fantastic," exclaimed Clinton. "That's right! And can you
tell me WHY that would be a tragedy?"
"Well," said the boy, "because it wouldn't be an accident,
and it certainly would be no great loss!"
And who says our childeren don't know nuttin!

President Clinton looks up from his desk in the Oval
Office to see one of his aides nervously approach him.
"What is it?" yells the President.
"It's this abortion bill, Mr. President. What do you want to
do about it?" the aide asks.
"Just go ahead and pay it," responds the President.

I'll be honest, if you were saving Hillary, Obama or McCain I'd throw all of you a life preserver, one that was tied to a pile of cinder blocks......
