I remember when my nephew was 4 and he got a jeep for his birthday. He is still friends with the kid that was over when he got it. Those cars rock.

Yeah. A little one seater so she's on her own as far as learning to drive.

We did it once. The Christmas - New Year's week of 1993 going into 1994. NEVER again! I don't care what the folks say who tolerate crowds like that....no way, no how, ever ever ever again!

It's amazing how quickly they master the 3 point turn.

parallel parking takes a while though...

It a dying art anyway...I think they even dropped it from the Drivers License exam here. (That's what I have heard...I'm not positive) Very few parallel parking spaces around here though.

If waiting 2+ hours for Kitchen Kabaret isn't magical, I don't know what is.

It's funny that Maryland doesn't test for this. That is the state where I had to pararrel park everyday that I lived there.

I told you about my hometown - no traffic lights, no sidewalks, no curbs. Yet I had to learn to parallel park.

No curbs? The street just kind of segued into the pastures?

Let's ask @JenniferS as I'm sure that was part of Titanic.

pretty much. We lived on a main road, so at least it was paved. Lots of roads in town were not, some still are not.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
There was only one car in Titanic. The "parking" that occurred in the movie, did not involve curbs, parallels, or Napolean Dynamite. And no one voted for Pedro.

@JenniferS I never really thought about this, but how familiar are most Canadians about the the names and locations of the states in the USA?
We played a game a few Christmases ago here for the adults to take a blank USA map and fill in the names of the states. Not many could actually do it completely and correctly. Some of the "rectangular" states always tripped them up.

Saves money on traffic lights. Actually I like roundabouts far better then regular intersections. In the Raleigh area there is a multitude of stop lights about every 100 ft. Since the traffic is quite heavy, many of the lights stay red or green for 2.5 minutes each. That includes straight ahead travel, left hand turns at each light (separate). You can spend up to 10 minutes at each intersection, but, when you do get a green it doesn't matter where you are in line, you will make it through.
