Go Back To The Time When...
Decisions were
made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-mo."
Mistakes were
corrected by simply exclaiming, "do over!"
"Race issue"
meant arguing about who ran the fastest.
Money issues
were handled by whoever was the banker in "Monopoly."
Catching the
fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening.
It wasn't odd
to have two or three "best" friends.
Being old, referred
to anyone over 20.
The net on a
tennis court was the perfect height to play volleyball and rules
didn't matter.
The worst thing
you could catch from the opposite sex was cooties.
It was magic
when dad would "remove" his thumb.
It was unbelievable
that dodgeball wasn't an Olympic event.
Having a weapon
in school, meant being caught with a slingshot.
Nobody was prettier
than Mom.
Scrapes and
bruises were kissed and made better.
It was a big
deal to finally be tall enough to ride the "big people"
rides at the amusement park.
Getting a foot
of snow was a dream come true.
Saturday morning
cartoons weren't 30-minute ads for action figures.
No shopping
trip was complete, unless a new toy was brought home.
Spinning around,
getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles.
The worst embarrassment
was being picked last for a team.
War was a card
game.
Water balloons
were the ultimate weapon.
Baseball cards
in the spokes transformed any bike into a motorcycle.
Taking drugs
meant orange-flavored chewable aspirin.
Ice cream was
considered a basic food group.
Older siblings
were the worst tormentors, but also the fiercest protectors. |
