Have you ever been somewhere...seen someone who was obviously too intoxicated to drive...and went out of your way to stop them from doing so? I am willing to be you probably have or at least seen someone do so....and when we take that kind of action we are doing so not only out of concern for their safey but also out of legitimate concern for the safety of others on the road...we do not even hesitate to intervene when we see someone who is too intoxicated to drive...we do not even think twice about doing what we can to stop them....that being said I now want you to think about this: When you choose to text and drive statistics (which do not lie) show you become MORE dangerous than someone who is driving while intoxicated to the point of .19 blood alcohol content....THINK ABOUT THAT..... Click here for details....these facts are chilling. Rick

It's not secret that distractions while driving are costly in terms of serious injuries and death...each year it is estimated we lose over 3000 lives due to distracted driving....3000 lives......as far as I am concerned over 3000 too many....it is blatantly obvious that texting while driving is beyond stupid...it is flat out dangerous...and yet many continue to do so....studies show that three quarters of teens and young drivers continue to text and drive....and now there are aps you as a parent can utilize to help lower that percentage....yes YOU CAN do something about it...

Being a lifelong die hard NY Yankees fan it only came naturally for me to become a Derek Jeter fan....he plays the game the way it should be played and he represents the world's greatest past time with the dignity and respect it deserves....it saddens me to see this season start to wind down knowing it is his last...he will be sorely missed....there will never be another like him....period....even Red Sox fans have to admit that lol....Click here for a very cool video put together by Gatorade.

I have this incredibly cool ap on my smart phone that allows me to check up to the second scores and stats on every major sport...pro and college.....you name it...football...basketball....baseball....hockey...etc etc.... at a second's notice I can get the dirt on pretty much anything necessary to keep me in the loop...even fantasy stats...and being a huge sports fan I have to say I love it !! I am on it constantly...without a doubt I ping it at least a dozen times if not more per day....what can I say I am a sports junkie! That being said....the one time I will NEVER check it is WHEN I AM DRIVING.....16 percent......SIXTEEN PERCENT of fatal crashes are attributed to inattentive driving.....that is practically ONE IN FIVE....this weekend as you are driving to and from and here and there......please keep these words in mind.......PHONES DOWN THUMBS UP.....thank you. Rick
