Such Truth!

[Mr.Glock]

I can remember on Saturdays (after morning cartoons) and all summer long, hoping on my bike and being gone all day.

Mom knew you were alright and she didn't expect you home until the streetlights came on, or at supper time, whichever came first, and you damn well better be home by then!

We never had TVs. We got A/C when I was around 15 yrs old and it was just in the living room, so in the summer time we mostly slept out in the barn. If you were not in the house by the time the parents went to bed by 10, you did not dare come in and wake them! During the school year we was expected to be washed up and in bed by 9, and your ass got hit if you weren’t!

Damn. I reckon my folks weren't so bad after all.

The only thing you left out were the covered wagons you drove to the gun range.

I used to take my .22 single shot out to the local water treatment place and shoot at used condoms floating in the water.

I think the PC term for them at the treatment plant is Silver Fish.

Haaaa! I am not that ****ing old! But we did have a couple wagons we used hauling out a 7 1/2 acre garden made. We put that garden in to pay for our school needs and to stock mommas canning for the year.

Ahhh it was just Farm Life. It was hard, but taught us to be hard.

When I took pottery art class I made several chimney ashtrays. They were extremely popular with my parents and friends parents.

I’m not as bad as I used to be about this.
