Moxy

Just read the headline: 5-year-old boy caught driving on Utah highway was heading to California for a Lamborghini.

It's misleading, because the boy wasn't asking for a free Lamborghini. He took $3 with him to buy one. Something about that really impressed me. He wasn't looking for a handout. He wanted a transaction.

He made it to the interstate and drove for three miles at roughly 30 MPH before he was pulled over by a state trooper.

If you're wondering how a five-year-old could drive, well, this kid was huge. He may be playing as an offensive lineman in the NFL someday.

I know this story is all wrong and you never want kids doing this, but man, initiative!

This second story is even better: Calling it it now: "I Wonder What's Inside Your Butthole" is the song of the summer. Just an eight-year-old writing a song so joyous it could get The Go-Go's to reunite just to record it. Plus, it's really clever, and there's a little nod to Elvis Costello in there as well. From an eight-year-old.

Oh, and the covers are magnificent.
