CAUTION: Grandma behind the wheel

You know you live a sad life when you have to wait in the Bus Circle until 5 p.m. for your parents to pick you up while all your friends simply zip off in their own cars to go home, to Chipotle and everywhere else it is that teens go. You also know you have a sad life when you don’t know squat about being behind the wheel (...

Relationships have never been of interest to me. On my list of priorities, I'd say they're just below scrubbing the toilet with a toothbrush.

The hype these days is The Phone. The iPhone 4, 5, 6, 7, whatever. However, considering the fact that they cost an arm and a leg, I do not see anyone lending me one to tinker with anytime soon. So I opted for the iPod Touch — the wannabe iPhone. Let me take it one app at a time. Cro-Mag According to Apple, the line of "i" produ...
