This blog was part military, is now civilian and part whatever else happens to catch my interest. For the time being, it will remain locked until I feel otherwise. Friend me if you want, comment if you do, don't expect me to do it back if I don't feel like seeing your stuff on my f-page. If I don't friend you in return, feel free to stay for the public posts.

I'll take seconds, please. 

The controversy with this video is that people think the graphic nature of it isn't enough to wake people up to the sheer stupidity of not only texting while driving, but just doing other things instead of focusing your eyes on the road.  Because it's human nature for people to see something like that and to think "Well, that will never happen to me because I don't (insert activity here) while driving or I don't do it all the time or I have done that numerous times and have never been in an accident."  But just because you aren't the one texting doesn't mean you can't be involved in an accident caused by someone doing it either, which is what I think people are also missing.  And teenagers above anyone else are prone to thinking their invincible.  Talking about it and finger wagging is one thing, but showing the effects of your actions is another and does leave a lasting impression. 

So what do you think?  Is it pointless making a video like this and having people watch it?
