Shut up and drive - Now that DC has passed* a law banning the use of cell phone handsets while driving, does that mean I can justify spending the money on that Bluetooth headset I've been eyeing? (Oh, and I see where councilwoman Carol Schwartz, the biggest opponent of banning smoking at DC bars and restaurants, was actually the sponsor of this infringement of personal liberty.)

* Technically, Congress can still block this local bill, under DC's so-called "home rule."
