I turned 16 today(11-15-03) I waited at the DOL(department of licensing for 5 1/2 hours. I took my knowledge test & driving test. I passed!!! I am a licensed driver now!!
I went to the swim meeting yesterday, and the fastest person on the teams' 50 free was 28 sec.(he's the captain) and mine is 25, I am the "all star" of the team. at least what is what everybody keeps telling me:D :) :cool:

Phil brought up a very good point. I'm 21 and if I tore my ACL I would be fine for surgery. My training style and health concerns are probably closer to a 16 year old then a 30, 40, 50+ year old but I am in the age of Masters swimming. So using all these reasons for the 16 year old not to post here is kinda crazy. I understand msgrupp's concern about having teenagers post here but until JC_Fly starts posting immature, off-topic, crude comments let him be. He was happy about turning 16 just like a recent "rite of passage" for me was turning 21. Is it really that big of a pain to skip over his thread? Not every thread that has been started here has been directly about swimming but the fact that we are all swimmers unites us. Until the boards start getting cluttered up with junk I say chill. Ok that's my $.02
