WISDOM IS WASTED ON YOUTH, AND YOUTH IS MUCH FUN, WITHOUT IT . . . WISDOM IS APPLIED KNOWLEDGE, AND IT TAKES TIME TO SEASON AND GROW--YOU ARE NOT BORN WITH IT! THERE ARE SOME OLD SOULS, THAT DEVELOP AT A YOUNG AGE, BUT FOR THE MOST PART, WE LEARN FROM, OUR MISTAKES, BUT WE RARELY REGRET THEM! LOL!
OUR FAMILY TRIP, WITH 7 TEENAGERS, TO ROSA RITA BEACH, MEXICO, VIA MESQUITE, NEVADA.
ONE FOR ONE--ONE BOY, ONE BRAIN--TWO BOYS, HALF A BRAIN, MEN TOO!
Me, my boyfriend at the time, Jerry, and I am not sure how many kids, could have been up to 7, with the girls, in the minority, riding in my car, and the boys, in the majority, riding with Jerry in his Toyota 4Runner, all stopped to have breakfast, in Mesquite, at a casino. Unbeknown to both parents, with a few spare kids, Chris, dares, Micah, both, probably, around 15 years old at the time, to take a quarter and put it in the slot machines, and pull the lever. Like, any cocky, competitive, young teenager, not to be, out foxed, by his friend, and buddy in high school or junior high pranks, takes the dare, and is seen by security, who track down, the parents of these two, hooligans, and take us in the back room, give, both the teens and the parents, whom the security guards are looking at, as less than, good parents, who didn't warn their kids about the crime of underage gambling, like we even thought about it? LOL. The security dudes, give us, both as parents to control our kids, and the teens a warning, that, gambling by kids will not be tolerated, during our stay in their casino.
You would think, that was that. Right? Oh, hell no, that only, upped the anti, in Chris and Micah's minds . . . Chris, dares, Micah, on the way out of the casino, to try getting away with gambling, one last time! LOL. Micah, not to be, seen as a chicken shit, takes the dare and dunks another quarter, into the machine, again, the parents are, in front, herding the kids all to the vehicles, to get on the road, before, something else happens. Chris and Micah, bring up the rear, are laughing and gaining speed on me and Jerry walking gingerly too our respective vehicles, when the two come running full speed, passed us . . . yelling RUN! I turned, as did Jerry, both, still gamy, and not wanting to further engage with the law, saw the security guards, two burly, dudes, gaining fast on the rear end assault . . . we yelled to all the kids to run!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can tell, wisdom, had not yet, cleared the way, for another, deterrent and lecture form the gnarly, security guards who took their jobs, way, way too serious! LOL. THE BIG GET AWAY! LOL. YOUNG SOULS IN MIDDLE AGED BODIES! WHERE DID THE KIDS GET THEIR RUMBUSTIOUS FUN SPIRITS FROM? GOT ME?
