I don't know whether to call you a baby boomer, or...

...a baby bomber.

I had a chemistry set when I was a boy. Unlike you, I had no idea what to do with it.

You were a little hellion, weren't you? Grinding up charcoal briquets in your Mom's kitchen grinder...

You were probably a "cousin" of the kids that lived around the corner from me, when I was a young mom....

The kids Mother came over one morning about 10:30 and wanted to know if I had anything to drink, of a wiskey sort....We didn't drink much, but I thought there might be a bottle someplace. Jeanette looked TERRIBLE, white as a sheet. Turns out, she had gone to place a load of clothes in the dryer, and out of the dryer tumbled a load of snakes....all over the place.....

Her boys had put them in there the night before after collecting them, and then didn't want them to get loose overnight, so in the went for safekeeping.

Jeanette didn't know what they had done until it was to late...

Boys!

Edit: To get back on PfP's topic, or LB will get his own cap gun out of storage, and "get us".....Maybe if we got back to more "innocent" adventures as a Nation, we would be more peaceful as grownups. Howard Dean and AlGore must have had no fun at all as children...they are repressed, and now are acting out their aggressions. Ya think? <gg>
