[Spridgets] Car Dealer question, absolutely NO LBC

[Larry Daniels]

15 years old, Kate?  We had to be 16.

My folks were the same way.  I had to pay for the car, all of it's 
maintenance and insurance.  In fact, their insurance went up because of a 
teenage driver in the house and I had to cover that, too, in order to get my 
license even without a car of my own.  Seemed to suck at the time, but it 
sure makes sense now.

BTW, the alternative -- a new pair of shoes -- they said they would cover. 
Such comedians.
