I learned how to drive when I was 14 years old I remember Joan and her then boyfriend Ernie Hamlin would take off with me and just go for a drive we'd get a couple blocks away from the house and switch places I'd get in the driver seat and they would get in the back seat and make out while I drove around the neighborhood in the back streets eventually Ernie became Troy's father and they were married
