I was somewhat amused by the news stories about the Planking death. Not the death itself, but the way everything was followed the patterns of comments that are usually used for some new lethal drug craze.

Friend: It was just a bit of fun, we didn't thnk anyone would get hurt...
Cops: These young people are just out for some fun, but please, think about the consequences...
etc. etc.

Planking itself is fine, IMHO, but 7th floor balconies are not the place for it. Of course, as soon as this hit the news, twits were planking on 45th floor balconies and such.

Of course, sensible people like dwellars would only plank across, say, a white generation three Subaru outback limited edition model. Nice.
