No laughing matter

It might be a good idea to tell the youth in your life that at this point in time, joking about guns or violence at school is in fact no joke.

Since the Park High shootings in Florida last month, Louisiana State Police and the FBI have investigated about 106 threats of violence in or near schools, the Associated Press has reported. This includes college campuses as well.

Live interrupted

BEAUTY FOR ASHES

This morning I was on my way to work at a quiet coffee shop because my soul needed coffee, earbuds, and a change of pace. On my way there, I passed a truck in traffic from which the wheels had quite literally fallen off. Just driving along and the axle broke and the wheels fell off, and I thought, “Geez, that’s kind of how I feel.”

YOLO: You only live once

VILLAGE IDIOT

Kids say it all the time: YOLO. You Only Live Once.

It’s the excuse they use when they want to do something silly, stupid or dangerous.

“Let’s see how fast Mom’s car will go — YOLO!”

“Let’s eat worms — YOLO!”

“Let’s put cherry bombs in our pants — YOLO!”

You can imagine how those all turned out. Not that I didn’t do stupid stuff when I was a kid, it’s just that I don’t ever remember saying YOLO. I think we usually just said, “Watch this!” before each trip to the emergency room.
