And, Drake, nearly 17, finally has his permit. I know - This reminded me of the biography of Emily Price Post that I read a few years ago. In 1949, she wrote a pamphlet for the National Highway Users Conference. The popular excerpt from this, free to Look Magazine subscribers at the time: A gentleman will no more cheat a red light or stop sign than he would cheat in a game of cards...A courteous lady will not scold raucously with her automobile horn (we call it the punitive honk at our house) any more than she would act like a fish wife at a party. Primitive, irresponsible, discourteous and impatient behavior behind the wheel of an automobile has not place in society. Clearly, she never went through a school pick up/drop-off loop in her day. Fishmongers, all!
