Something Lite
My brother, The Wizard, sent me this in an email. I Googled it up, and it appears that its been floating around in cyberspace for awhile, but, I got a boot out of it. The beginning of the piece.
"If you lived as a child in the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s or 70’s…
Looking back, it’s hard to believe that we have lived as long as we have…
As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags. Riding in the back of a pickup truck on a warm day was always a special treat.
Our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paint. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors, or cabinets, and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets.
(Not to mention hitchhiking to town as a young kid!)"
Enjoy.
