OK, as for memories of this car. I drove it to Utah about 4 times to see my future wife Robin. Doug Larson and Jared and I drove up one time in blistering heat playing Depache Mode all the way repeating "People are People". We had our shirts off and the wind wings open all the way to try and have as much air blowing on us as possible. Another time I drove it to Utah with some girl from school, we almost hit a deer on the way home. It was past midnight, totally dark, and we were both super tired. We switched driving every 2 hours because niether of us could stay awake. Anyway, we almost hit a deer. We arrived to morning rush hour traffic, and went straight to school and barely made it to class on time Monday morning. Of course we stayed as long as we could to be with our significant others.

To the issue of the car being in AZ. Sorry Whitney that you were told no. Maybe it was the newness when you asked. Jase does drive it to school and back, but he is not allowed on the freeway, and not allowed to drive it everywhere. In fact, I drive it to the store and other short distances.

This brings me to the question of whats fair! Could this be a new topic? We are always challenged with "What's fair" with our kids! It seems to be impossible to be fair with everything. I want it to be fair, but it never is. How do you balance it? How do you do one thing for one kid, and not for another, and expect the other to not complain? Or...does it eventually become fair in the long run? Being the oldest I got things first! Is that fair, probably not, but I didn't get the last things either, such as a cruise vacation, etc. Should life be fair, or should we just live with what is? Or do we make it what is?

Have a great Sunday
Sean
