Adolescent Frankensteins growing up in Sultan

Monster mash-up: A new supernatural novel, “Frostbite,” appears to follow a theme familiar to another series of books popular with teen readers, this time among werewolves in the Northwest Territories of the Canadian Arctic.

Teenage vampires in Forks? Hip young werewolves in Canada? We’ve got to get in on this. The Buzz is laying claim to a new book series about adolescent Frankensteins growing up in Sultan.

You’d wear sandals, too, if you had eight feet: Scientists have announced the discovery of two new species of spider, including one that prefers sipping plant sap to nibbling on the tasty ants around it.

Scientists also noticed that the vegan spider used a canvas bag rather than paper or plastic when gathering nectar and wears eight tiny Birkenstocks.

Not that we’re speaking from personal experience: Two Indiana high school sophomores are suing their school district after they were punished for posting photos of themselves in lingerie on MySpace during summer break.

Without taking sides on the legal issues, The Buzz would have advised the girls that the trick to avoiding trouble when, for example, mooning a rival high school team from a school bus window is to make sure there’s no photographic evidence.
