License To Speed

26 years ago my friend hoovie received this license from the state of missouri. i’m not sure what he was licensed to do, but i do know he liked to see how many traffic lights he could speed through before one of them turned red– and that was when we were in high school! he told me he was coming up to kansas city around mid july, and wanted to crash at our house. i said that was ok as long he didn’t crash into our house. after jenny goes to sleep we’ll probably go driving through the city like bill murray and peter boyle in where the buffalo roam, looking for the heart of friday night.
