Recently my little brother phoned me up at home.

"I need to talk to you," he said urgently.

"What, what is it?" I reply, "What's happening - are you ok?"

"Well, I need to know what you did in high school."

"In high school? What do you mean?" I am confused.

"I need to know what you did in high school, so I know how much I can get away with," he answers.

Wow. He is brilliant. Never mind the fact that I was in high school over 10 years ago, I am female, and overall pretty innocent. This kid is the youngest, the only kid at home, and he's a guy. He plays baseball, so he can't have a job (yeah, right.) So my parents give him all the money he wants. And a Jeep Cherokee. And then they got divorced, which we all know makes getting away with shit infinitely easier. He will be 17 on Friday.

Can't wait to see what he gets away with.
