The ALS Ice Bucket Challange

So my wonderful wife named me. 

I am not often into doing the latest social media chain letter type challenges. I cringe when people post the results of their buzz feed quizzes. Who cares what some quiz told you was your best feature, or what house you would belong to in Hogwarts.

I have to respect the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge though. Not only is it generating awareness of the disease, its also generating funds. At the time of writing it just passed over 50 million dollars. Quite the feat.

Since I ran the Cheesehead half marathon this morning, the time between getting home and hopping in the shower was the perfect opportunity. I'm glad my wife was there to help the kids with the bucket, so I did not suffer the same fate as her with all the water going down her back.

I challenged Will Smith from Tested.com (not the actor), Stephanie Rosenow, our newly departed summer intern at PHC, and PHC's general manager, Russ Salzer. We will see if I get results.
