Driver Follows His GPS Off Bridge, Wife Killed
My wife frequently tells me I depend on my GPS more often than I should, and she may have a point. (Not that I’d ever admit it to her face). I do use it quite a bit, and I even use it around town when I mostly know where I’m... Read more

You Can Now Buy A Back To The Future Hoverboard
The Back to the Future movies are some of my favourite films of all time, and I especially love the second installment of the trilogy. It served to introduce us to some amazing technology from the future, including Marty McFly’s Nike Power Laces and of course it gave us the... Read more

Police Departments Creating Safe Craigslist Zones
I love Craigslist; I really do. I’ve gotten some awesome things for some dirt-cheap prices – but sometimes, I’ve been a little afraid when it came time to meet someone. I’ve gone to some pretty seedy apartment complexes to pick up Blu-Ray players and you name it, but recent... Read more

Man Creates Flying Speeder Bike From Star Wars
Growing up, I loved playing with toys (Who didn’t?). Besides Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, my other favorites belonged to the Star Wars universe. I can’t even tell you how many action figures I had from a galaxy far, far away. I had several versions of Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Han Solo,... Read more
Teen Killed By Train While Wearing Headphones
It’s no secret to anyone who knows me that I love music, and the louder it is the better it sounds to me. (Maybe that’s because I’ve slowly gone partly deaf from all the concerts I’ve attended and loud music I’ve listened to over the years.) Seriously, though –... Read more
The Post Modern Skateboard Ditches The Board
I have a confession to make; I can’t skateboard. In fact, I’ve never been able to. The only thing I can seem to do with regularity on a skateboard is fall on my rear to the amusement of everyone watching. I don’t know what it is – I’ve just... Read more

Should Your Smartphone Come With A Health Warning?
I’ve had a smartphone since the days of the iPhone 3GS, and I’ve never looked back once. Not surprisingly, I do most everything on my iPhone – email, music, set up appointments, web research, text, you name it. Oh, I almost forgot – I also occasionally use it to... Read more

Girl Allegedly Tries To Poison Mom For Taking Away iPhone
What’s the worst thing you ever did to your parents when you didn’t care for their punishment? Did you yell at them? Slam your bedroom door? Mutter under your breath? Give them the silent treatment for a few days? I remember once when I was upset over getting in... Read more
Could Driver’s Licenses Be Going Digital?
It’s the day all teenagers look forward to – the day when they finally get their driver’s license. In many ways, getting that little piece of plastic sums up a whole phase of childhood. Once you have that license, you’re almost an adult – you’re still limited to your... Read more
