- The big news in our state last week was that an “elderly couple” outsmarted and killed an armed, escaped convict who had held them hostage for several hours.

- A new study found that the best way to lower college costs is to graduate in 4 years. My guess is that smart parents have been telling their college students that for a long time already.
- According to recent reports, driverless smart cars will be ready for the marketplace and the road…once engineers solve a few teeny-tiny problems like jack rabbit starts and braking late. Which means driverless smart cars are the electronic version of teen drivers. So why are they called smart cars?
