Driver's License

Drivers License

Welcome to Saturday 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every
Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

Saturday 9: Drivers License (2021)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) This song is about a girl who just got her drivers license. Who taught you to drive? 

I guess my Dad did.  I learned to drive when I was 13, and being out in the desert gave me lots of room to move.  Also, all the kids in my generation of farmers learned early.  For my part, I went to the San Gabriel River bed and drove all over that place..

2) Do you like your drivers license/state ID photo? 

It's OK.  I never even look at it anymore. 

3) Think back to the first ticket you received. How old were you, and what was it for?

I didn't get a ticket until I was in my 20's.  I missed a stop sign.

4) In this week's song, Olivia Rodrigo is brokenhearted, driving through her boyfriend's neighborhood, certain that he has taken up with the sophisticated blonde girl. When it comes to romance, do you have a jealous streak?

 I've been jealous from time to time, but not anymore. Besides, if someone is going to cheat on you, what can you do about it?  Threaten them with Great Bodily Harm?  A hosing by a gang from East L.A.? lol 

5) Olivia grew up in Temecula, California. Temecula is home to 40 wineries and dozens of tasting rooms. Have you ever attended a wine tasting?

 Not in a formal way.  But we went on a tour of wine country ( up North) one year and gathered some awesome wines.  I like the sweet wines, like Port and Marsala.

6) Her first on-screen appearance was in a commercial for Old Navy stores. Old Navy is owned by the same company as Banana Republic, Gap and Athletica. Have you done any of your holiday shopping at one of those stores? (Yes, their websites count.)

Just Gap, from which I bought a lot of clothes, and now, lately I've given Old Navy a look in.  I won't buy from on line stores unless I know or have seen the garment in Real Life.  You know, In the Wild?

7) She went on to star in projects for Disney studios. That's also how pop stars Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, and Christina Aguilera got started. Arguably the first teen star created by Disney studios was Annette Funicello. Do you remember her?

Oh yes, she was such a great kid. 

8) "Drivers License" was one of this year's most popular songs. One of this year's most popular books is John Grisham's The Judge's List. Do you expect to do much reading between now and the end of the year? If so, what's on your TBR (to be read) list?

I'm reading an advance copy of Peril , by Bob Woodward and Robert Costa.  I can only have it for 7 days so I'm reading every minute.  It's an EYE popper!

9) Random Question: What is the longest line you ever stood in, and was it worth it?

The first and second Covid19 Vaccine shots, and Oh boy was it worth it.
