When the words "hip" and "old ladies" are put together, the word "artificial" usually isn't very far behind. However, as the 69-year-old Madeleine Albright taught us yesterday, older women don't have to settle down and bake cookies once they hit Social Security age. When you think about it, your grandmother is probably one of the cooler people you know -who else gave you all the candy, junk food and birthday presents you wanted when you were little?

In celebration of their own history, the pop-punk band Relient K parodies Lincoln's famous speech opener for its album's title, "Five Score and Seven Years Ago." They also give him a nod with their own opener about a man who believes John Wilkes Booth was wrongly accused of his murder.
In the spirit of midterms, the Daily sat down with the Pop Tards, a pop-punk band composed of sophomore Korey Aaronson, junior Garrett Wojcik and West Connecticut State University senior Chris Morano, and gave them a written test about their recent album "Extra Fun Party Time" and their history as a group.
