Just kidding, if there's let's say, 6 people reading this (a high estimate), there is an obscenely low chance that one of you is a cop, which is why I'm going to tell you this. I'm a drug runner. I swallow balloon fulls of drugs and transport them to and from Mexico. Oh, and my parents let me drive our car on most weekends.
Not on Highway 89 or anything (although I once went on the interstate on the way to Park City brag brag brag), just around the city. So far, I haven't gotten into any accidents, which is a big plus. Also, I've never even seen a cop, nor gotten pulled over by one, which is a MAJOR plus, because I don't need my drugs to be discovered. If that ever happened, I would never be able to afford a flight back to Mexico. So I've been on rides with both of my parents, and both have found ample times to criticize me on my driving skills, which is good.
The weird thing is, my dad won't even let me get my liscense, or permit, until I finish my Eagle Scout Project, which is weird, because he never finished his. I don't know why he pushes it on me as something I HAVE to do. He never did it, and he seems to be perfectely fine in life. Is the eagle some mystical object that helps you get all the success and glory that you could ever want. Yeah, I know that it can be a deciding factor in a job interview, but so can a good car=I mean education. If I focus all my attentions and energies on driving-I mean education, wouldn't that also help me get a job. I mean, if you have a guy with stait A's at Harvard (not saying that'll be me) and a guy with an education at the local community colledge, who you would obviosly choose the Harvard one. Wait, he has an EAGLE, woah!!, hire him right away. I know that it can help, but not that much. Just because he did a community service project and completed a few merit badges doesn't give him this gigantic edge in the working world. You need a good schooling just as much as you need a sash with badges on it.
Anyway, ideally, if I complete my eagle, I would love this car...
but I'll most likely end up with this one, due to monetary limitations...
or hopefully I could get my grandfather to sell me one of his classic cars for cheap. The thing is, when you are a teenager who's only job is walking dogs and mowing lawns, you can only have about $2000 dollars save up in the bank (minus $500 or so for video games). So the realization that I came to is that I'll pretty much end up with a crappy car anyway so why even drive until I can afford a better car. I'll just mooch off my parents until I can.
