I thought about it once or twice while I was growing up :)

I feel for this kid, I really do. He should be showing up on the boards in a few years, LOL!

Of course, he might just as likely show up in prison.

Anyway, boys of certain ages also play hooky from school, etc. So what?

For a 7-year-old, his driving wasn't too bad, Anderson said.

Obviously not a Utah native...







... or a transplant from Cali.

Why so defensive Dannyboy?

Power of discernment? The lad is close to the age of accountability … yea prison is most likely

DCP, this is plain malicious. If my childhood misdeeds were set as measure I should be a gangster, serial killer,
rapist, con artist...You name it.
This kid has a very good chance to be the President of United States! Seeing his courage, I'd vote for him;
Even if he were a Republican candidate.

Whoooosh! Point completely missed!

Yes, he's very likely to show up here in a few years. His youthful theft of a car, so completely meaningless as an indicator of potential future criminal behavior, is rock solid evidence that he'll eventually be Mercury II.

I should never have compared the virtual certainty of the latter to the microscopic likelihood of the former, suggesting that they were roughly on statistical par with each other.

[_Inconceivable]

I like this kid.

Although I think I'd restrict the use of his big brother's X-Box for a few weeks.

Actually, they are not on statistical par. Not even close. He is much more likely to end up in prison as almost three million Americans are incarcerated. That from a population of 300 hundred million.

There are only 743 registered members on MDB, not three million. I get your point, however.
