I got my permit today!!! I just had to tell somebody! It's a tough job, my mom's Pontiac Vibe has an extremely touchy throttle! Watch out California

Congratulations!

I remember what it was like--waiting years until I got my license. Then, it wore off pretty quick and I like other people to drive now! (Does that make me an old fart?)

I have to tell you too, when I was your age, I loved driving around with the windows down listening to Whitesnake or Van Halen as loud as possible! (I still do that occasionally! Maybe I'm not an old fart after all!)

Good for you--enjoy it!

-Mike

Happy times for you!!!

It's exciting --- something us "old folks" take for granted... but we all remember learning to drive and our first time behind the wheel ALONE!!!

Be safe...
