Dad thinks you should write a column for The Reporter - 'I wonder what things would be like if ...'! <br />The way they drive in your city - is it a cultural practice? Almost seems to be! Dad and I were talking about what it must be like to go to taxi driving school. What do they learn? Also, how on earth DO they get their drivers' licenses? Just be careful when they 'almost' hit you!Loishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374131812329892477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480218591747722314.post-33673265084250237062011-04-23T09:26:23.149-07:002011-04-23T09:26:23.149-07:00Oh my goodness!
