Yeah, yeah so I jacked it from Chris...it made me remember the times before I realized the world went farther than my doorstep....

Close your eyes....And go back.... Before the Internet or the MAC...Before > >semi automatics and crack...Before SEGA or Super Nintendo...Way back.......
I'm talkin' bout hide and go seek at dusk. 
Red light,Green light. 
Playing kickball &dodgeball until the street lights came on. 
Mother May I?
Red Rover.
Hula Hoops.
Running through the sprinkler.
Happy Meals. 
Watchin' Saturday Morning cartoons. Fat Albert, Road Runner, Smurfs, Picture Pages, G-Force 
The kids from the show Saved By The Bell were your idols, and all the girls were in love with Zack
Wonder Woman &Super Man Underoos.
Playing Dukes of Hazzard. 
Catchin' lightning bugs in a jar. 
Christmas morning..you were so happy and now your not that happy lil kid any more
Your first day of school.
Bedtime Prayers and Goodnight Kisses. 
Climbing trees. 
Getting an Ice Cream off the Ice Cream Truck.
A million mosquito bites and sticky fingers. 
Jumping down the steps.
Being tired from playing.... 
Your first crush...... 
Rainy days at school meant playing "Heads up 7Up" in the class room. 
Kool-aid was the drink of summer. 
Riding your friends on your handle bars. 
Wearing your new shoes on the first day of school. 
Class Field Trips.
When nearly everyone's mom was at home when the kids got there. When a quarter seemed like a fair allowance and another quarter a miracle. 
When any parent could discipline any kid, or feed him or use him to carry groceries, and nobody, not even the kid, thought a thing of it.
When your parents took you to McDonalds and you were so cool.
I want to 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.
Being old, referred to anyone over 20.
The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex was cooties.
Nobody was prettier than Mom.
Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better.
It was no 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.
Abilities were discovered because of a "double-dog-dare".
Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles.
The worst embarrassment was being picked last for a team.
Water balloons were the ultimate weapon.
Older siblings were the worst tormentors, but also the fiercest protectors.
If you can remember most or all of these, then you have LIVED!!!!
