Anybody from Burleson?- morbid billboard

[jusb]

Today I was working in Burleson and saw a billboard on I-35 southbound at Renfro.
It read "On April 27(I Think) 2006, 31 students from Burleson High School will die in drunk driving accidents" and next to it was a drawing of the grim reaper and "2006" underneath. And below that was something I wasn't close enough to read.
Has anyone seen it or know the story?

I found it very morbid and bizarre.

1. now that i think about it..

I bet some church or school is putting on a play or something.

2. After living in Southern Tarrant...

...for many years, I find Burleson to be morbid in and of itself. When I saw it last, October '05, it has more concrete but still just as morbid. Simple folks, full of Bush and their bibles.

3. hard to believe...

... Burleson (Johnson County part)is actually represented by a Democrat. Though I doubt he won Johnson County.

4. It sounds a lot like the "Every 15 minutes" program

that is aimed at discouraging teen drinking.

The outline is:

-One student "dies" every fifteen minutes and dresses up as the Grim Reaper. The student cannot speak the rest of the day.

-At the end of the day there is an Assembly with some skits and testimony by a drunk driver survivor or family member of a drunk driving victim.

-For some reason the assembly has a way of making many students cry.

I do not see anything too creepy about it. Though I do question its effectiveness. Of course if it stops one student from getting behind the wheel plastered it is worth it.
