    Wow, there's some memories..........not the cop testing the pee pants guy......the kid on the bike.
    My first job in SoCal was doing just what he is doing....delivering the Examiner.
    I had a set of those bags. Up at like 5am to ride down to the drop off office to fold and bag the papers then ride back up to deliver them. Sunday papers were the worst. Had to carry them over my shoulders and fell off my bike from the weight more than once!

    I looked at the picture closely and was really surprised. I delivered papers also and my first real job was at 92nd and Main in L.A. (not the corner pictured). Fortunately I never pissed my trousers during a police stop.

    I did the same thing when I was in the 6th and 7th grades, but I was at the other end of the country. Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

    Note the dealer tag on back of the car. Driven to the track I suppose.

    When the ladder is raised all the weight will be on the front axle.
