Katie,

This just amazes me. It's caused me to think back about myself at the age of 23.

I was a Sergeant in the Air Force. I was an avionics technician with red X orders on F-4E fighters. Red X orders means that for my system I had the authority to certify the aircraft was safe for flight. There was a lot of lives and money in my hands.

My wife, who is 1 year older than me, was the charge nurse on a 30 bed surgery floor. Again, just a small bit of responsibility.

We had been married for 3 years at that time and owned our home. We had a mortgage and 2 car payments. I had NEVER been given a car or any help paying for insurance, fuel, repairs, etc.

You don't sound 23 to me. You sound 12.

Joe
