I was looking for a writing challenge, but I found an advertisement for a taxi service in London! Interesting place to advertise, and I have to admit that I will remember the Croydon name should I ever find myself in London....

So how does one win this challenge? Is this a writing challenge at all? Is this a pay to win challenge, like booking a taxi will bring about victory? Would riding in one of these taxis be like playing the classic arcade game Crazy Taxi? Because if I am going to consider these services in my next (first) trip to London, I am hoping for some Offspring and Bad Religion blasting out of the the Croydon taxi speakers..... that would be radically radical!

Now I need to go play some Crazy Taxi while I wait to see who wins this challenge..... personally I think batmaninwuhan deserves it :-)

dear earthlings!, our lasers are pointed not at you but at your nickel-iron m9lten core, which is about 15 thousand kilometers deep. We intended to extract this metal for ourselves . the lasers will vaporize all that will come in its way, skicing the planet ever so gently in two. Be not alarmed by the oozing of massive amounts of magma that will come out. We are doing this with great care and precise planning to avert any danger to our staff. All of croydon will benefit from this overflow of cheap, molten readily available metal, for which to cast our hopes at launching the great fleet of taxis we have envisioned. All (within the london area) will know of our nickel, is it rolls along streets. As we drill, we invite our frinds to peer down at the glowing, gasseus core, just watch your step, be sure to avoid any outbursts of discrage, as temperature may rise to 5000°C. But with reasonable precautions, there is absutely no reason why we can't mine the core OR the mantel, while still enjoying a flourishing cultured life upon the crust. For those of you who wish to book rides between crumbling tectonic plates, we guarentee that our taxi services are second to none when it comes to safety, speed and confort, as befitting the basic rights of all who call Croydon their home.
