Subject: Ice Bucket Challenge

So, have you been challenged yet? I think this will be remembered as one of the big highlights of 2014 and the start of a new trend: a meme to support a cause.

just because of a silly challenge supermarkets have run out of ice? They could've used the ice for something better. ::)

How about calling it the Hot Water Challenge.
Or maybe a "Mud Wrestling Challenge" ;)

I hate all these Facebook challenges. They can cause death or serious injouries. I know at least one person who lives in my town who nearly killed himself by jumping into dead water.

Teenage boys setting themselves on fire is the worst one. I can't believe people have gotten that stupid! >:(
The ice bucket challenge for a cause isn't bad, at least it's something for a good reason, but I don't see how it helps the cause. I have a friend who did the challenge though, his nephews dumped water on him. I'd volunteer actually due to how hot it gets. ;)
What do you mean by dead water BTW?

That's the whole purpose of the Ice Bucket Challenge, it's supposed to be cold. You either take it or donate money.

We only have one very small ice cube tray and many people seem to almost fill a bucket with ice.
I was cheap skate though and just used a few shallow containers then made Elizabeth smash the ice into smaller chunks

A Belarus boy may be fined for daring President Alexander Lukashenko to an ice bucket challenge, reports say.
Dmitry Dayneko uploaded a video of himself doing the popular online challenge and nominating the country's long-serving president to follow suit.
But he was soon called in to the local youth affairs office and his school in Berezino and told off, the Belarusian service of Radio Liberty reports.
Police said everyone in the video would be fined unless they took it down.
Dimitry says he was told he'd "done something against Lukashenko". But he says: "It was just a stunt. It's just a game. We just wanted to start things off, to see what happens, maybe we'd be lucky."
Belarus' government keeps a wary eye out for any signs of opposition, and Dmitry says the officials mentioned "getting a call from the capital". His parents weren't impressed either, it seems. "They said I was stupid, that I shouldn't have challenged Lukashenko. That's all," he says.
Millions of people have joined in the ice bucket challenge, in which they pour water - often with ice cubes - over themselves and challenge others to do the same, usually to raise money for the treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
