Jessi, this is for you: A funny story about Granny

This happened when I was a teenager in Palm Springs High School.  My sister and I were allowed to date, not single dates, just group or double dates.  We were never really told why we couldn't single date but we assumed it was because they believed we were more likely to have sex if we were on a single date.  My brother could do whatever he wanted.  I guess it was up to the parents of the girls he was dating to save them from the perils of single dating.  In any event, my sister had permission to go on a planned double date to the movies one Saturday night and the other couple had to cancel.  My sister was pleading her case to be allowed to still go on the date even though she could not find another couple to double with her.  Finally she whined, "Why can't I go?. . . I'm not going to go all the way or anything."  To which my mother replied, "All the way to where?  San Bernardino?"
