Nah. The younger one learned real fast that when going to a new school you get a lot of juice being the younger brother of the school's heavyweight. Insofar as Killer is a senior I guess he realized that he has to fend for himself next year.

You don't have to tell me about that teenager and a car stuff. My oldest just came home. Of course, he works nights at the college radio station but 3 AM nights are the norm, radio station or not. He specifically set up his schedule so that he rarely has morning classes and never a class on Friday.

Killer got his license and stays out way too late....midnight....some nights a week. But what am I going to do, he has 2 inches and over thirty pounds on me. But then again, these are boys. It's not politically correct (and I don't care) but I tend to think girls have more sense about such things.

I don't think any one site is better than another, I usually book my own stuff. Tonight though, I tried to find a hotel around Bethesda for tomorrow and found it easier to just use Google. I used Orbitz and so forth, found some hotels, but keying in Bethesda hotel on Google gave me a site that had hotels closer to where I wanted to be and less expensive, provided I show a triple-A card. I never remember to do that, so it was handy to have it pop up on the screen as an option.

Speaking of which, as many cars as I have (four drivers) an AAA card might not be the worst thing you can get after she gets her license. Killer gets the most use out of it. I bought his car in 1985, handed it down to the one in College a few years ago and he has had it for just over a year. Since I gave it up, it's had it's temperamental moments. But until LeBron James' momma drops by with a HumVee that's all he's good for.
