Safe Driving For Prom Night

Prom night can easily be ruined by a few drinks, a distracted driver or someone texting while driving. Mothers Against Drunk Driving have reported that nearly half of all prom season car wrecks that involve 15-20 year-olds involve alcohol. Parents and schools are urging teenagers to make wise decisions; not just on prom night, but anytime they enter a vehicle.

Many schools already promote awareness for drunk driving by placing a totaled car on the campus in hopes that students will what could happen. In Georgia, one school and police department teamed up to act out a mock crash on the day before prom. Students watched as a driver was arrested and as paramedics placed a fatally injured teen in a body bag. Their hopes are that the students will begin to see the seriousness of their actions and how being distracted while driving or drinking and driving can cost lives.

You all are aware that Favre could not have possibly been as much of a nsiciasrstic ass prior to his years in Green Bay, right? Packer fans created that monster and have only themselves to blame for it.And they are doing it again with Rodgers. Fuck it I say. If keeping Rodgers under the Land Baron's shadow keeps him humble and prevents the rest of the league from enduring Favre 2.0, may I say, Long Live the Mighty Cumslinger.Because I just can't tolerate the idea of doing this all again.

Doug, A really good invrteiew about the what and the why of preaching. One of the highlights of the invrteiew for me was when Dr. Merida asked, Would the author be offended by the way I used the text? If the author would have been offended, it stands to reason we have also offended the Holy Spirit. Thanks for making content like this available. I hope a lot of pastors listen. Sincerely,Brent
