I will probably plan on leaving Rochester around 7:00, which should put me there around 9:30 or so. |

Dustin turned 16 in September and lots has happened since then. He got his license, he has a car, and he got his first job a few days ago at Rainbow bagging groceries. I believe he is on the schedule to work tomorrow, and although I want to ride, I know he does too and I may have reservations about going without him. However, I've been selfish in the past and may be able to summon this mantality once again, so if I show up without Dustin, you'll all know why. I don't know if you guys are familiar with the Camaro incident last year where I bought him a Camaro to monkey around with for about a year until he got his license. He proceeded to pull an "F" in math, I gave him a few weeks to bring it up and he didn't, so I sold the car. He was devastated to say the least, and I felt bad for doing it, but I had promised to do it so I felt I had to. He is now carrying a B+ in math and he told me he is going to turn it into an "A" by next quarter. I told him the B was sufficient for me but if he wanted an A more power to him. That B+ is his lowest grade and one might be able to look back and see the Camaro sale as a kick in the ass for young Dustin?? Whatever it was, he's towing the line and doing more than we expect out of him, so we're all happy around here. Don't know how that long winded tale came about, but maybe I'll be there tomorrow, maybe I won't! _________________ Thank you,

Cool story, Mike. Good to see some are still teaching discipline and self-responsibility. Seems to be in short supply these days. _________________ John Brunsgaard |
