I’m all about “informed risk”, Jim. My boys tear around the neighbourhood on their own. Phil (12) takes Cameron (5) to the sledding hill a couple of blocks away. They go to the park on their own in the summer as well. What truly amazes me is the things that people choose to worry about. A co-worker has two boys (6&7) and thinks nothing of letting them tear around the back field on a large four-wheeler. They’re both driven to the door of the school every day, though. The world’s full of weirdos, don ya know. Sheesh.

oh my god gordo… this is a revelation to me… he’s my new hero to. if you had any idea how fed up i am with the craziness of protecting children. my childhood was all those things, we used to set fires in open fields and see how long we could wait before we had to put them out, later when the interstate went through our little hamlet, a local reservoir had to be pumped out and they left these floating pumps in the reservoir in the woods with 10 gallon jugs of gasoline and we used to set everything on fire… and look where all my pyromania has led me, in college i welded, forged, cast metal, fired kilns and blew glass. my friend and i stole his mom’s car when we were 13 and went joy riding in the country, got a flat tire, ruined the fender trying to change it in the dark (69 impala), turned it off a block from the house and gently rolled it back into the driveway. btw, i’ve already let sofia drive our car with her on my lap when she was 3. i haven’t been without a pocketknife since very young and my grandfather taught me how to sharpen it. anyway, i love this guy, got to get that book!

I wonder: do you get frequent flyer miles on Air Rendition?
