Night Train Misses Drunken Teen
A drunk French teenager narrowly escaped death last week after falling asleep on a railway track and slumbering undisturbed as a high-speed train speed over him. The 19-year old, whose name was not released, remained fast asleep face down on a stretch of track near Saint Nolff in southern Brittany, as the Quimper to Paris train raced over, [...]
Is Guinness Helping or Hurting Humanity
The alcohol is fine. We love Guinness stout.

It’s My Party and I’ll Cry Thanks to Facebook

The spot ends with,"Not what you expected?... Being a teenage parent might not be either." I think this would have a bit more credibility if it didn't take place on a school yard [...]
Texting made easy for Tots, Teens, and Troglodytes
Texting is something that I have come to rather late in life. I like the convenience, speed, and brevity of it. I don't quite understand why teenagers and twentysomethings have to do it constantly along with IM, My Space, and Facebook. I don't want to be in CONSTANT contact with anybody. What ever happened to going off the grid? A couple [...]
