My dad had an old buick, I think it was a 63 lesabre. He built a platform in the back so it was like a bed, all the same no floorboard so to speak. Now we used to drive from Tx to Fla and back. He chain smoked but ya know remember the old side windows that sucked it out?

Anyway back then buick had a feature you could place a needle on the speedometer to let you know when you reached that speed. It would set off an alarm. He had it set at 80 and I can still remember waking up to that shit.

As an aside, he took that fullsize buick when we went to spain. I remember when we went to madrid the streets were way to narrow, everyone had to back up to let us thru. Fuck Franco.

My dad was an LTD wagon man. When he would go to the liquor store and buy beer I would use 12-packs as booster seats so I could see out the front window.

Me as adult to my son, "you don't need a booster seat because mommy has dark windows in the car."

Risk taking is in our genes.

Was you dad drunk when he got into the car to drive to the store for beer? Mine usually was.

Yup,and I learned to serve early. He also taught me how to pass and hide things in the car,without looking like you were. One piece of advice when he got away w a DUI one time,was to memorize your drivers license number. Later on my drunk ass was saved by knowing the # multiple times. Drunks lose their wallet constantly. July 17 will be 14 years no drinking for me. Woke up in ICU, Jesus miraculously lifted the family curse. I have put zero energy or effort into not drinking. I can't honestly take credit because I have done nothing.
