I just read the headline "New State Has Highest Teen Pregnancy Rate" and thought, "Wow. We have a new state?"

We'll cut you some slack, because that wasn't the best way to headline the story. Something like, "(State name here) has highest teen pregnancy rate for first time" might have been clearer. I mean, it's not like you have to write headlines to fit space on the Internet. But we'll cut the headline writer some slack too, 'cause he or she is probably all stressed out worrying about the next round of layoffs in the news business.
I am a 30-something Jersey girl. My current interests are walking long distances, absorbing as much theater as possible (especially musicals) and wasting enormous amounts of time on the Internet. I own a coupon binder. I'm obsessed with my cat (with whom I share this profile)
When I write as my cat, I am an 11-year-old tabby cat. I enjoy blankets and long slurps from the sink. I also like turkey, chicken, cheezburger, shrimps, salmons, tunas, and French fries. And corn. And Star Wars.
