Planking: A Co-ed Sport?
Planking is the "new craze that has some stiffening their bodies and others scratching their heads."
The goal of planking? Simple! It consists of lying face down in an unusual or incongruous location, taking a photo, and posting it on Facebook! The proper positioning includes:
As witnessed by this following cameraman, planking for women can result in injury and it is a disrespect of the sport.
So what's next? GET OUT AND PLANK! Its time for men, including the readers of boytalk to get out and claim this sport once again. Two of our followers have already started this endeavor.
We would love to hear from you! Post links your best planking locations and poses in the comments section below!
***WARNING*** Planking is not for everyone, including women, ladies, and females. Please do not plank while driving or operating heavy machinery (light machinery is okay). Happy Planking!

Reaching out to Mormons: Knocking on THEIR doors for a change
My fellow boytalkers,
One thing we will be talking about frequently will be how to practically reach out to different groups. This edition will be dealing with Mormons. Nobody really knows what the Mormons believe, including the Mormons themselves. We do know that they are very friendly, and, strangely enough, though they are mostly a white religious group, occasionally they will have a basketball player that can score 80 points in ten minutes. While the most effective way to talk to a Mormon is to answer your door, how can we reach out to Mormons that don't live near us? Well, since Mormons do not know what the internet is, the only way to reach a Mormon that is far away is through writing letters.
After the jump is a letter that was actually written to a REAL Mormon.

5. Jumpin' Catfish!

Steroids for Hemorrhoids?
What makes this blog what it is? We tackle issues like no other blog. We get to the bottom of things, quite literally in this happenstance.
So, to answer the question: no, just deal with it.

If the NFL cancels the upcoming season...
Here's boytalk's 5-step plan to cope with the potential loss of the 2011-2012 pro football season.
5. Find a nice solitary location and have a nice, long cry.
4. Realize how many hours a day you'll save by not having to manage 14 fantasy football teams.
3. (If you're a Redskins fan) Your tears of sorrow will turn to tears of joy as you think of the prospect of the Deadskins losing 0 games this season as opposed to the inevitable 11-13.
2. Watch more Hockey.
1. Watch College Football. It's better than the NFL anyway.
