Newsflash: Texting while Driving BAD!

As a rabid opponent of using a cellphone while driving, I am not surprised to hear the results of a new study
(http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/03/28/adults-worse-than-teens-about-texting-behind-wheel/2026331/)
declaring that nearly half of all those surveyed do text and drive, despite the fact that almost all of the people surveyed know it is dangerous.

They needed a study for this?

Upside to high price of gas

Most of my friends live in Los Angeles while I reside in the next county over. And none of these people are poor like I am. So, when one of them invites me to a social affair, I have to factor in the cost of the drive. But now when I do go to an event, nobody expects me to bring anything. With the crazy cost of gas, driving there is the gift!
