Dude, You're So Grounded...

I wrote for my high school newspaper too, but I was never this idealistic crazy:
A 16-year-old from Florida who traveled to Iraq on his own without telling his parents has left the country and is on his way home, the U.S. Embassy’s consul general said Friday.
***
Using money his parents had given him, he bought a $900 plane ticket and took off from school a week before Christmas vacation started, skipping classes and leaving the country on Dec. 11.

His goal: Baghdad. Those privy to his plans: two high school buddies.

And he actually ended up in Baghdad. Nuts.
