Check this out. Lake Oswego is historically one of our swankier areas in the Portland suburbs, but c'mon, this is ridiculous... :blink:

 
Yeah, great...then we'd have a bunch of drunk brats...

Wonder if they'd share? Surely they can't hold their liquor at that age, right?

 
Um, I guess I'm a guilty one then. I had an American Airlines 767 pick my kid up from public school on the last day. My principal didn't say a thing. Well, I don't think she did, the jet noise sort of drowned her out.

But seriously, I won't even go into the flap my school principal started on the last day of school.

Let's see, limos for prom encourage wild and crazy sex, I wonder what it does for elementary schools?

I remember me and 14 or so of my friends being picked up by a "stretch" on the last day of school. :D

(There was no sex though, 'til I got home and dug out my magazines.

What... Doesn't everyone do this? :eek:

I sent my kid to Hawaii when they learned to pee in the toilet. :blink: I didn't give him a limo ride to the airport though, how gosh. :huh: I had a helicopter pick him up. :lol:

In a previous life, I drove limousines.

Seriously.

A 6 passenger stretch Town Car.

2 10 passenger stretch Town Cars.

Easy to drive.

A 14 passenger stretch Town Car.

A definite challenge to drive, but 3 lefts are better than a right, when fully loaded triple (at least) stopping distances, and don't expect to set any land speed records.

A 16 passenger stretch Excursion.

Easy to drive. Great visibility and there wasn't a curb made that it couldn't drive over (done properly, of course).

A 16 passenger stretch Hummer H2.

A complete bitch to drive. Curb-going-over capabilities of the Excursion, but narrower and with horrible visibility - small mirrors and gun slits for windows.

Proms? BTDT.

Weddings? BTDT.

Anniversaries? BTDT.

Suprise shopping trip? BTDT.

Birthday? BTDT.

Ohio State football game? BTDT.

Night out on the town? BTDT.

Trip to / from the airport? Too many to count.

Bachelorette party? Piece of cake, but remember that at the beginning of the night they're all bestest friends, and by the end of the night, there's a bitch, a whore, and a c... You know.

The worst, though?

Barry Manilow concert.

That night, I saw a stark transformation from sober and reasonably intelligent and easy to deal with, to drunk and . . . and . . . well, I told her to STFU.

The proms were easy for me. Some of the 'leaders' would try to either (1) take a 'gym bag' into the limo, or (2) try to con me in to buying them beer.

Situation 1 - the bag goes into the trunk and stays there, no matter what. (Like I was born last night, silly kiddies...)

Situation 2 - no. No argument, no debate - no. Period. Shut up, get in the car.

My first passengers as a limo driver?

Elementary kids on a lunch trip as a reward for something or other, with chaperones.

Piece of cake.

Yes, I can parallel park a limousine.

Last year for my youngest daughter's 10th birthday, she really wanted a limo ride. She elected to waive all presents and any kind of formal party. So I used that money normally blown on average party BS, and rented a limo for the afternoon.

Took all the girls to a pizza buffet, then for ice cream, rented movies at the video store and dropped them off at my house for an all night karaoke sleepover moviefest. The whole thing, limo and all, cost me about $300. Ever priced one of those ridiculous parties at Geoffrey's??? No kids were allowed to bring presents or pay for anything. It was pure fun.

Every kid in the school and a bunch of her hottie female teachers :) still talk about that limo party. No regrets because she was a "pop star" for the day.

That's a great thing to do. Good for you.

 
They see me rollin'... they hatin'... :)

JeffAshe, that's an awesome idea for a party. Rock star for a day. *writes down for future reference*

 
I recall my last day of school was like any other-a 3 mile uphill trudge in a blinding snowstorm. Both ways, of course.

Conspicuous consumption.

How can anyone be against that?

I mean seriously, what’s the point of having money if other people don’t know you have money?
