18

"Mom? Do I still have a curfew? I'm 18 now...."

"Why? What do you want to do?"

"I want to go flying. Right now. "

"Huh?"

"Yeah, my friend Brandon is going flying tonight and he can take 3 friends and I want to go. He's got lots of experience flying."

"First of all, no. Second, it sounds like a small plane. And third, it's night time. Small planes and night time don't mix."

"But he's a good pilot. He's got lots of experience."

"So was JFK, Jr. And he had lots of experience, too."

"But Brandon's dad is the mayor."

"JFK's dad was president."

"Good point. The president wins."
