First, tinting the windows of his mother's minivan doesn't make it a limo.
Second, we live in the country, so there are a few rednecks in his school. Consequently, the prom has child care facilities.
Finally, when he told me how much he was spending on renting his tux, hiring a limo, and buying his date's corsage, I was flabbergasted. I told him "That's more than I spent on the wedding when your mother and I got married."
His reply: "Yeah, but you've been married three times. A prom is a once in a lifetime experience."

Please tell me you were joking about child care at prom.
Yes, I was joking. And the picture is not of my son and his date.
LOL, yeah things ARE a tad different than back in our day... We had enough guns in trucks and cars to not worry about putting em in any pictures... They were tools! :-)
NFO - I hardly see gun racks in pickups anymore, much less guns. I know I don't display mine for fear of theft.
But you're right. They used to be considered tools, and they used to be safe inside a truck
I'm glad you already answered the question about the couple in the pic. I just about shat myself when I saw that and was going to ask you about it. LMAO!
CD - Our kid posed with an AR-15 and his date was packing a M1911... :-)
Speaking of High School proms.... if you can find this old book by Jean Shepherd (deceased male) give it a read.
Title: "Wanda Hickey's night of Golden memories".
If you 50+ you'll laugh your ass off.
If you're under 50 you'll laugh but your ass will remain attached.
Toejam - I just ordered the Wanda hickey book from Amazon (used books). I'll let you know how I like it.
