sad but true since we are on the subject.. we were sitting at a red light the other day and it seemed to take forever to change i rememberd back to when i was about 4 or 5 and when my dad would take me into calgary and i would always carry along my pop gun rifle to point at the red lights and pretend to shoot them so the lights would turn green now remember this was the mid 80s there was no bright orange plug in the end of toy guns back then to tell it was even a toy you pretty well had to be within 3 or 4 feet of it.. other drivers would point and laugh .. the aww how cute treatment.. it made me wonder what would happen if some kid was to do the same thing on the main streets of a major city in todays society |

worlds over rated and too serious, they worry over nothing and cant seem to take a joke. *sigh* life was much more fun in the days of 70's, so ive heard, my mom said she used to go all around the neighborhood playing as a kid and would check in every few hours, nowadays i cant go outside without having to look over my shoulder and if im gone for more than an hour my parents look for me. So i dont go outside unless going to another place by car. it sucks. |

The kid and the father would be shot and then when the police found out it was a toy they'd get put on a desk job. |
