Many modern teenagers face a catch-22: their parents don’t trust them behind the wheel of a car, but they need the driving experience to become more trustworthy drivers. Russ Bond, a 30-year automotive industry vet, decided to remedy this dilemma. He started kartSTART.ca, a traveling, family-friendly go-kart program that reaches beyond the mere thrill of racing in fast gas-powered carts to also emphasize the fundamentals and physics of driving. “What we teach here is how a vehicle works,” says Bond on his website, “…we help teenagers prepare for the daunting task of driving on today’s roads with the masses.”

During full-day programs at speedways throughout Canada, future drivers can hop into a Toyota go-kart for three driving sessions and an array of safety activities and lessons. To simplify matters, the outing includes all of the equipment necessary for a safe and realistic driving experience, including helmets and built-in backseat drivers designed to second-guess every turn you make. Programs also include lunch and beverages.

The Groupon Guide to: Fishing without a Rod

Until cows realize that seaweed is just wet grass and there's plenty of it to eat on the ocean floor, the only food source humans will find in the water is fish. If you're hungry, near a lake, and happen to be without a fishing rod, use some of these tried-and-true techniques to catch a fish:

Spear: This method, which involves jamming the spear end into the seafloor, holding the opposite end near your open mouth, and waiting for the fish to slither up and into your body, should never be used because if you've got a spear and a strand of long, thick hair, you've basically got a fishing pole.

Net: There are many advantages to fishing with a giant net, but none are more important than being able cut it up into long rope sections so you're left with a bunch of long, wobbly fishing rods.

Dynamite: Fishing with dynamite is prohibited unless you're simply using the dynamite to try to shake loose the millions of fishing rods that are probably buried in the sand beneath the water.

Hands: Employing the bare-handed method to catch a fish is easy, but it's even easier to go to a nearby sporting goods store and purchase a real fishing rod, like the Lakemaster™ SnatchStick™—because with a Lakemaster™, you'll always make the fish come out of the water faster.

Why is it so easy to make a fishing rod?
