I saw it. That's an epic way to do it. I did it this evening. Also there's a MOC by Moko.

Maybe it's because I'm Australian but I don't get it. What was the significance of that?

This is a fundraiser for ALS research. It was started by a few people, and took off like wildfire. If you get challenged, you have 24 hours to donate to ALS AND/OR do the ice bucket challenge, which is dump a bucket of ice water over your head and put it online. Oh and then you challenge people to do it.

See here for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_Bucket_Challenge

Why is this significant? Because Josh is an admin here at CC. He's a great guy, full of humor and fun. I am guessing that is why he went for the front end loader bucket and not a bucket bucket. Josh rocks.

There are many examples around of Josh's awesomeness...there are just too many for me to link and mention. Seriously...Josh rocks.

Oh, I get the fundraising (which is great) and Josh part. Just the premise of the challenge side seems a bit lame.

Anyway, it's always good to put a face and voice to those behind the scenes. It turns members into people :)
