Kiddies & Cars
Posted By Bill Frost on July 31, 2009, 8:56 AM
Those reports that the family of 7-year-old Preston Scarbrough weren't going to do any media about the boy taking to family car for a spin in Plain City, Utah last Sunday because he "didn't want to go to church," reasoning that it would just look like he was being rewarded for creating a YouTube sensation? Pure bullshit, apparently. --- Here's the Scarbrough clan on the Today show, rewarding the oh-so-cute rapscallion for endangering lives and avoiding Jesus. Internet fame wins again! Lesson learned: Take a joyride and get your 15 minutes, kiddies!
