And run I did, right off the lot, but not before I could finagle a deal with the insurance people. You cannot believe the rate difference between being 20 and 21.

So we worked something screwy out where they resubmit the policy in a couple weeks, after my birthday, and I just pay the higher rate for this month.

Such a wonderful thing. But don t think that my columns ever-present bogeyman gets a reprieve this time.

Another thing stood out during this trip to the dealership. Jorge Ospina took care of me really well.
