Why? Because God is good and He loves us. I'll take wet t-shirt contests and beer as proof.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

The ice bucket challenge is not silly IF you also give money to ALS research.
You look at things a little different than me. If I am interested in giving money for a cause, I will give it. Ice water dumped on somebody or the other will not sway me. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

My wife's father died of it. He went from upright, walking, etc. to totally non-functional in less than two months. OBTW, there used to be a bar maybe two miles ourside the main gate of NAS Pensacola that had wet t-shirt contests and they always made sure the water was a bit chilly

I expect it's related to goose bumps. Nipples are bumps, right?

Ice water dumped on somebody or the other will not sway me. miles They are donating for a cause, the ice water is an excuse to get people to donate. If it gets them on social media then so be it, but the intent of this thing was to get people who normally wouldn't donate a dime to put up a bit of cash. I am all for this type of thing, it appeals to younger people, and opens their eyes to helping different causes that are worthwhile. YMMV

The nerd response is Nips shrinking are the bodies defense mechanism to cold..they, like any skin, shrink as an effort to "close up" and retain heat..
The true response is who cares!! They look awesome!

You're probably right. A couple of beers can surely distort the time/space continuum(sp)

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by the blood of patriots and tyrants.
If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.

In 93 the club outside of eglin that had those contests was along side fudpuckers just over the first bridge on the right. For the life of me I cannot remember the name! As for nips that'll cut glass, it's gotta be about the goose bump type reaction?
