You Don't Need a Brain to Write for The Washington Post...
Great story about a 6-year old kid in Virginia who tried to drive himself to school, here. It appeared in the Washington Post.

I especially love the blurb at the end of the story, where the reporter says the boy was not identified because of his age, and yet at the very beginning of the tale, his parents are identified by name and age, and the fact that he has a 4-yr old sibling is also mentioned.

Good to know they're protecting the identity of the little guy!

And they wonder why people are not reading newspapers anymore...
