the kansas legal driving age is sixteen, and since there isn't a lot to do as a teenager, one of the most common evening past times is cruising. when i was in high school we cruised up and down main street in conway springs, a street only about four blocks long, turning u-turns at each end and honking every time we passed friends or classmates in cars going the opposite direction. i remember one night a group of friends and i slowed down and opened the door on every u-turn, creating a pyramid of aluminum cans in the street, one can at a time, as we cruised slowly back and forth over the course of the evening.
