JKerouac - What a card! »
iReporter JKerouac of San Diego has a very unusual holiday tradition, indeed. Every year, he gets together with his family and they re-create a famous photograph or piece of art to send out to loved ones for their Christmas card. In previous years, they have re-created the famous Beatles “Abbey Road” album cover and the unforgettable image of an American flag being raised at Iwo Jima. This year, they went for a classic painting by Norman Rockwell. JKerouac’s creativity doesn’t end there. He came up with a great idea for the Sea World San Diego public relations department’s holiday card, portraying members of the department swimming with killer whales Shamu and Baby Shamu. He even has a few tips for those who would like to add a dash of creativity to their card next year. “Try a personal touch. Photograph a scene from your bedroom window, include a favorite quote that keeps you motivated throughout the year, visually interpret what the year has meant to you.” CNN.com Live’s Reggie Aqui interviewed JKerouac about where he came up with these great ideas. Check out the interview here! And if you have any creative, offbeat photos or videos, share them with us!

Shouldn't we call this a "Coronation"? I'll be so glad when all this crap is over and done with. I'm waiting with bated breath for my "Instant Wealth and World Peace" as promised by the Obama Masses.
