Was sharing this conversation with family and the more I rattled my head the more I remember. This will age me . When I was in high school we had “drivers education “, actually took a class in order to get a drivers license. So my drivers Ed teacher was Mr. Okura who was also my P.E. Teacher/ baseball coach . Picture a serious athletic Japanese guy with a crew cut. The car we drove was a 1970 challenger (could have been a ‘69, or ‘71) it was a beast muscle car! I went to Marina high school 68-72. So anyway we’re out the third or fourth day and we’re cruising H.B…..we come up to “Edwards Hill” which is kind of in the middle of nowhere. I’m driving and he says “PUNCH IT!”
Yeah baby…I threw everyones head back against the seats. No head rest in those days. I was the lucky guy that got that nod. The two girls in the back just giggled. Yep I got my license and the rest is history.
BTW…. I didn’t make the baseball team even though I was better than 90% of the other players. I refused to cut my hair which was half way down my back.
