women drivers






My daughter passed her DMV driver's test — the written one — today. So begins the behind-the-wheel years for my baby girl. (sounding old): Where does the time go? I know her so well, yet have no idea what kind of new driver she'll be. I suppose it's a great opportunity to learn even more about her ... while enduring a severe nervous breakdown in the process!


Being a child of 70s TV, my brain naturally flash-backed to this classic Brady Bunch episode. The one in which we learn our beloved Greg Brady is, in fact, a male chauvinist pig. He's about as lame as he can be during the entire show, so it's really nice when Marcia gets the last laugh at the end. (We all knew Greg would crush the egg in the obstacle course!) And what's with the icky stepbrother flirts with stepsister dialogue? Eww, Greg. Please, don't go there!
