Default Is it wrong?

The wife and kids are out of town, so my mom invites me over for dinner. I don't know what came over me, but when I left I was compelled to lay down a bit of rubber in front of her house. I couldn't stop laughing as I sped down the road with the tires grinding into the pavement. It felt way too good to be right.

Anyway - Am I going to hell now?

No Hell,... Your mom obviously knows you and raised you and was then probably still saying kids will be kids... And besides, I've seen my mom lay some rubber down on the driveway a few times when her and dad would get into it

Do you really have to ask? You already know the answer.

My mother never minded me doing a burnout in front of the house as long as it was not every day. That is pretty funny. Has she spoken of the incident yet?

If you haven't received a call from her by now chewing your butt out, you're probably OK.

She lives in a small town and her neighborhood isn't quite what it was when I was growing up...

I can say that I always dreamed of having a vette in that driveway when I was a kid. For some reason when I pulled out I was 16 again.

She did call me with the excuse to tell me that Saddam was about to be executed 5 minutes after I left. Then she said I was lucky that the police didn't give me a ticket. That was the end of it. Her voice tone said "boys will be boys..."

It's great to be 40 and to keep the keys...

You are sure headed that way! but wait there is a slight ray of hope for you. Sign and mail your title along with keys to me and be absolved of the evils this car has brought over you. Repent now and be forgiven!
