The actual increase is thought to be much higher, given that many people were too fat to get to the phone on time.
America's teens have found a new way to get drunk: by soaking tampons in vodka and inserting them in their rectums and vaginas. Why? According to Dr. Dan Quan of Phoenix, AZ, ''[It's a] quicker high, they think it's going to last longer, it's more intense.'' 11/15/11 5:57pm ET
