Ice Bucket Challenge

I don't know if this is going viral on the other side of the pond, but in Canada and the US, thousands have been dumping buckets of ice on their heads in the past week for a good cause. The idea is that the "challengee" must either do the challenge or make a donation in support of ALS research. Many do both. The challengee then becomes the challenger, nominating a friend or three to do likewise. A video shared on social media is a part of the process.

R was challenged by a friend and she in turn challenged me. She also did the videotaping and selection of a freeze frame for my Blip.

I can hardly think of a more deserving cause. And in a strange way, after a horrible day, it felt surprisingly good.
