I Told My Sister to Rent a Car Before Deciding to Buy One Since She Rarely Drives
My sister told me she wanted to buy a car. She has a license but has driven about 10 times in the last five years.

In truth it is a good thing that I found a girl who is smarter and more responsible than I am when it comes to this sort of thing. I would still be living in the apartment I shared with my old college drinking buddies if not for Mary Anne and her better senses. Of course I could be happy with that sort of life if I had plenty of beer. We are planning upon having a kid and we can probably afford it, but it is not going to be easy.
