The Price of Fame?
One day in the future people will look back at us and just shake their heads. Everyday too many young people are dying senseless and unnecessary deaths through escalating random violence on our streets, war, cars, drugs, alcohol and taking risks because they believe they are invincible. On the weekend another young man died not because of an act of violence, a drug overdose or reckless driving but to get his picture up on the internet. Planking?? I don't understand it at all and to take the risks that some people are just to have your picture on the internet is just beyond my brain. Young people and probably some not so young risk their lives doing all sorts of stupid and dangerous things just to get their 2 minutes of fame somewhere on the internet and I don't understand that but Planking??? This is just a whole new level of senseless risk taking!!!! Can someone explain it to me please?

I thought I misheard that on the radio this morning, I have no idea what'planking' is...and actually, I dont think I need to.
I know young men think they are invincable, but they need to know how precious and worthwhile they are to the world too.........
No clue, but I worry about this sort of stuff a lot, having worked juvenile probation for 5 years prior to staying home w/ my boys.
