My parents weren't cool like that, but that nice man from Neverland sure was...

Having lived briefly in Frederick County, I'll field that one: I'm not sure they recognize "rape" as such out there. It's just boys being boys, doing God's work behind the Jimmie Cone. No need for a kit. And no need to pay for a babydaddy test. That's what Maury Povich is for.

"...Police say the teens -- two 13-year-old girls and three males, ages 14, 16 and 18..." Speaking of Palin, do minors need to buy their own rape kits in Frederick?

Thanks Monkey, that doesn't sound like the ol' prank we would repeatably play on a gullible friend - when we'ld stuff him in the trunk and drive around awhile before letting him out and speeding off. Of course we'ld pick him up after 10 minutes. This was one reason why 16 year olds shouldn't drive.

Clearly a serious case of lead paint-itis. I think a preemptive arrest of the children is in order as well. Nip them in bud, so to speak.

what's the point or thrill to riding in the trunk? There's a local variation of the old party game "Seven Minutes in Heaven" known as "Half an Hour in the Trunk." Some locals also refer to it as, "Find the O-ring," "The AAAMCO Man Inspects Your Dual Exhaust," or even "Greasemonkey's Dipstick Gets Bent."

I don't get it ... Aside from sneaking into Drive-In Theaters what's the point or thrill to riding in the trunk?

At 15, I got to steal nips from a bottle of Gordon's that was older than me. I do not miss those days.

We used to soak Gummi bears overnight in Everclear. That's some f***ed-up jello shooters right there. Now you got Michel Richard selling that s**t for $14 a shot at Central. Somebody call Todd Thrasher at PX and have him put that s**t on the menu. Go great after a couple of those "menthol" tobacco single malt scotch-tails he's selling.

If she was a cool mom she would of bought the girls red bull to mix with their vodka. Isn't that what all those damn kids are drinking these days? Gosh, in my day we had to put jolly ranchers in bottles of zima while walking up a hill both ways with no shoes on in 6 ft. of snow. My momma never bought me jolly ranchers to go with my zima. Spoiled brats. And gas was a buck and cigarettes were 3.00.

My mom was so cool that, when she found I was surrepticiously mixing "jungle juice" out of all the liquor in the cabinet, she beat the living s**t out of me. Since then I've had an aversion towards poorly mixed drinks and the occasional seizure.

My dad was the cool one; he hid the keys to the bar someplace where my mom couldn't find them.

Why do all the cool mommys end up either in prison or working as strippers? Maybe the kind of daddies they attract?

The COOLEST moms let their kids drink vodka while they ride in the trunk.

Take these children away from her, now. Instantly. Post-haste. According to the article this won't even effect her probation, as she didn't buy the vodka for her kids. Nice!

my mom was cool too. she raised me to not be a idiot. how about a shout out for parents who did a good job, eh? kudos to them all!

My mom was also cool. She bought the vodka and bourbon to have on hand for "special occasions" and then was too distracted to notice when they mysteriously emptied themselves over the course of the next year month week.

Oddly enough she was on McCain’s short list for VP. Apparently her hotness score was too low, but her bat sh!t craziness score just edged out Palin by 1000th of a point.
