Re: OT: The Good Old Days
Don't forget LAWN DARTS. You'd be arrested for giving a kid lawn darts these days.
My friends have teenage and early 20 year old kids. They are not "bad" kids, but MAN they have no motivation beyond sitting in the house, playing video games. Can't light a fire under them for ANYTHING.
But I hated my childhood. My parents let me know I was in the way all the time. My HS graduation gift was luggage. I took the hint and moved out before the summer was 1/2 over. I like my life now WAY better than childhood. Good job, great wife, decent health, nice quiet home to go to at night and a handful of friends to hang with. Its a quiet, peaceful life, I like it.
