This was the ‘Bomb’ in its day; Don’t think we had a TV until I was eight or so.

I think the only time I watched UHF was a station in NJ that played Speed Racer.

Egg creams; this plus some milk and seltzer and a blender/mixer. If not there was always the neighborhood drugstore soda fountain.

Didn’t know that they were still around. You think the Tog would like them, you never know. :)

Was on a Fustercluck Celtic Quest tog charter back in the day and i dimly recall someone claiming to have caught a keeper tog on a red Swedish Fish. I tried it and even the bergals would not give me a nibble. General, any recollection? Anyone remember this? I do recall there was quite a bit of personal enjoyment and imbibing of all kinds. So maybe no one even remembers this charter?LOL.:)

I sadly watch my grandchildren transfixed and in another world obsessedly playing their Nintendo Switch, cell phones. I have learned to keep my mouth shut in front of my daughter-in laws. Sigh. :((n)?

When we were kids, we made our own rubber band powered zip guns. fired playing cards at each other in mock cops n robbers, cowboys and indians, soldiers battles. No casualties. Found discarded lumber, junked baby carriage wheels some clothes line rope and hammered together poor mans' version of Soap Box derby racers( many of you will probably have to Google this). With no fear for our safety and no brakes, we would race down our local suicide hills at great peril of skin and bone and the occasional cars. Some skinned body parts and wore out our shoe leather soles using them as our only brakes.In winter we skitched same suicide hill. Hanging onto REAL bumpers on backs of cars and skidding on our boots on snow and ice. laughing our butts off the whole time. no one was chicken to do this. occasional bumps and bruises. no serious injuries, concussions, law suits or BS . Didn't need or couldn't afford many toys. we made do . We lived the life of the Little Rascals. Among my most precious memories. Those were the good old days.:)8-):love:(y)(y).

Worse, both of my daughter in laws are scared sh@tless to let me take the grandchildren even fishing for sunnies at a pond. They both tell me to wait until the babies grow up to be teenagers. ( The babies are 6 to 10 years old). What can I say to them? Heartbroken?:cry:.
