Default Re: Memory Lane...

I'm 49 and i remember most of these. Except the one about the dog with no purebreed. We always had Labradors. Pops and i did a bit of duck hunting "back in the day". And B.B. guns. Having B.B. gun fights, the law was no shots above the waist. And i didnt use baseball cards in the spokes. Never. Only old playing cards from a broken up deck. The Ft. Apache play set i got from a second hand store i ended up putting lighter fluid (the same fluid my father used to fill up his Zippo) on and burning the whole damn fort down, along with the Plastic Army figures we would burn (victims of war), and used them for target practice. Then i graduated to Gas. Found the gas can for the lawnmover. For excitement at Night (because in Vegas we dont have fire flies) we would pour a half cup of gas or so, down the street drain outside my folks house. Let the fuel vaporize and then stand back a few feet and toss in a match. Holy crap you shoulda seen the flame come out of there and the flash and boom it gave off!!!! Then we graduated to Salt Peter, sulfur and charcoal.....I better quit. Dept. of homeland security is probably monitoring this site.

Dennis, I too remember all of it. Just hope the day never comes when I remember none of it.
