Do they ever grow up - sparkchaser - 04-19-2009
At about 12:30 yesterday morning,Vicki and I got a call from her 18 year old son.You know they say you can't fix STUPID,I believe it.Him and a buddy(who is old enough to buy beer) were out doing speed trials I guess on his ZR2 blazer,when they lost it at high speed and barrel rolled it.Luckily minor injuries only but blazer is totaled,several driving awards for my step-son,including but not limited to DWI,C&R, etc.One of the employment requirements at work is a drivers license so now he probably will lose job.!!@*&$$#!!#*&^##@!!! it!do they ever grow up?:banghead:

Friend of mine at work told his son if he ever got popped for DUI the best thing he could hope for is that they keep him. I believe him, it scared me.
DUIs, wrecked trucks, tickets, and fines are just things. Things can be fixed. Its great to be able to complain about it later.

Thanks guys .I don't mean to sound ungrateful that they are OK because I am.But when I was ten I lost my dad to a car accident when a teenager tried to beat a red light.And yesterday afternoon I went by where they flipped and there were two little kids playing in the yard where the blazer landed.timing could have been really bad.I hope he realizes how lucky he is.

My son will be 41 in Aug. and I could write a book on what he has been through. The only trouble is that, at this point in his life , it hasn't stopped yet. If he isn't into "car stuff" it's women, he's divorced. So from my experience with my 41 year old acting 18, no they never grow up. I'm sure glad your guys are ok. May they learn something from this! :xyxthumbs:
