ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED the 1930s '40s, '50s, '60s and '70s !!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then after that trauma, our baby cr ibs were covered with bright-
colored, lead-based paints.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors, or cabinets, and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets, not to mention the risks we took hitchhiking.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Riding in the back of a pick up on a warm day was always a special treat.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We
drank water fro m the garden hose and NOT from a bottle.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle, and NO ONE actually died from this.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter, and drank soda pop with sugar in it, but we weren't overweight because WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No one was able to reach us all day. And we were okay.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes! After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the
problem.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We did not have Playstations, Nintendos, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 99 channels on cable, no video-tape movies, no surround sound, no cell phones, no personal computers, no Internet or Internet chat rooms..........WE HAD FRIENDS, and we went outside and found them!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth, and there were no lawsuits from these accidents.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls, and although we
were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Little League had tryouts, and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This generation has produced some of the best risk takers, problem solvers, and inventors ever!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And YOU are one of them! CONGRATULATIONS!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids before the lawyers and the government regulated our lives for our "own" good And while you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave their parents were.

Thanks, Lamron, it works for my Mac at home but not at work with my Windows box, strangely. But your technique will let me go to the web directly at work and see the pix. PS, any takers on the likely combined IQ of that bunch? The cutest one to me is the little frowning dark haired beauty on the second row, 5th from the left. But how did Woody sneak in there (the only red-head in the picture, last row, second from left)

CONFOUNDED SEX A man was in a terrible accident, and his "manhood" was mangled and torn from his body. His doctor assured him that modern medicine could give him back his manhood, but that his insurance wouldn't cover the surgery, since it was considered cosmetic. The doctor said the cost would be $3,500 for "small, $6,500 for "medium, $14,000 for "large." The man was sure he would want a medium or large, but the doctor urged him to talk it over with his wife before he made any decision. The man called his wife on the phone and explained their options. The doctor came back into the room, and found the man looking dejected. "Well, what have the two of you decided?" asked the doctor. The man answered, "She'd rather remodel the kitchen".

Incredible story about an elephant's memory...
A young man was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from college. While he was walking through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed so the man approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee and inspected the elephant's foot. There was a large thorn deeply embedded in the bottom of the foot.
As carefully and as gently as he could he worked the thorn out with his hunting knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to face the man and with a rather stern look on its face, stared at him. For a good ten minutes the man stood frozen -- thinking of nothing else but being trampled.
Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned and walked away.
The man never forgot that elephant or the events of that day. Twenty years later the man was walking through the zoo with his teenage son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to where they were standing at the rail. The large bull elephant stared at him and lifted it's front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times, all the while staring at the man. The man couldn't help wondering if this was the same elephant.
After a while it trumpeted loudly; then it continued to stare at him.
The man summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder.
Suddenly the elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of the man's legs and swung him wildly back and forth along the railing, killing him.
Probably wasn't the same elephant.
