My 14 yo son had a dentist appointment today, which I completely forgot until the iphone gave me a 30 minute chime.
The dentist is 40 minutes away on a good day, the other side of O-town. I know, there's dentists closer, it's another story. So I yell at the boy to grab his shoes and jump in the car, and off we go, hell bent for leather. I drove faster than I should have for a dentist appointment, working my little four banger through traffic, making time the whole way. Traffic sucked, and I worked for every minute, wringing it out, working the motor and the brakes. And my kid paid me the ultimate compliment. He fell asleep in the front seat sitting next to me. That boy has complete faith in me.

No!
| I had the engine quit in my single-engine airplane last summer on takeoff at 200ft and landed in a field that just happened to be right there. I flew back home with my girlfriend on a commercial airline. She gave TSA a hard time and bitched about "having to take the bus" on the way back home. |

But does she trust you enough to sleep while you fly? 
She should, after that.... |
