I done some dumb things as a teenager myself.Took my mom's Chrysler and was showing off to my friend who had a 69 cuda.I was peeling off around a corner after my friend and lost control of it.Ran it over a curb and into the field in front of the High School.The car hit the curb and slid so smoothly across the grass I thought for sure I must have sheer off something underneath.Luckly everything was ok....drove it back home and was looking one last time before going into the house.At the same time my mom walk outside and seen me looking under her car and she asked if I had done something to her car.Tried to have a innocent look on my face and told her no I didn't do anything to her car. (LOL)
Boy I was very lucky that night.My mom was a single mother raising two teenage boys and last thing she needs is to be without a car.

Funny how we get "wiser" with age..and most of us some how manage to survive our teenage years.For those people wiser people who end up with kids of thier own try to keep them from doing the same dumb things we did,but have little luck preventing it.(LOL)

Yeah, teenagers are stupid, and my friends and I were no exceptions. When I was in high school, one of my friends got this old International Scout and we used to go rumbling around the hills around town, driving through ponds and the like. One night, we were barreling up this hill after driving through the pond and wouldn't you know it? The rear wheel drive crapped out. Turned out, when we were coming out of the water we hit a rock and broke the driveshaft which left us with just front wheel drive and about 25 feet till the top of the hill. We weren't going to make it, wound up getting someone with a wench to haul us up and then had to lash the drive shaft up and use the front to get back home. Could have been worse though--the pond and hill were at a private golf course! Morons, huh? But it was hella fun! My friend kept doing stupid stuff though, and wound up not graduating--the finals straw was bringing a practice grenade to school and showing it off! Live and learn ...never, ever bring ordnance to school, real or not. Good guy though; you could count on him for anything

My turn for the car story.

We had to drive down dirt roads to a town 30 minutes away to get beer and I had the parents olds 98 full of young ruffians. Well the dirt road crossed a creek and for some reason I did not slow down from the 60 mph i was traveling.

So 15 minutes later when we get to the gas station to get beer I am smelling gasoline. Sure enough I ripped a small hole in the gas tank. Well the ingeneous gas attendant told us to rub soap on it and it would plug it up.

Amazingly this works......

Until a week or so later when the family traveled to the city to go see the movies and it started raining on the way home and melted the soap.

Luckily we made it home but gas was pouring out of the tank and I told my father 'What did you hit?!"
