I'd like to meet:
Comic Strip :)
This is dedicated to Those Born 1930-1979!TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED the 1930's 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's !!
First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant.
They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes.
Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-based paints.
We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking.
As infants & children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, booster seats, seat belts or air bags. Riding in the back of a pick up on a warm day was always a special treat.
We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle. We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this.
We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank koolade made with sugar, but we weren't overweight because...WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!
We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.
No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K.
We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem.
We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVD's, no surround-sound, CD's or Ipods, no cell phones!, no personal computers , no Internet or chat rooms....... WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!
We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents. We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.
We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays,made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes.
We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and kno cked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them!
Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!!
The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever! The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL!
If YOU are one of them . . CONGRATULATIONS!
You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up askids, before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our own good
And while you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave (and lucky) their parents were.
Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn't it?!
The quote of the month is by Jay Leno:
"With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the
country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks,"Are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?"
For those that prefer to think that God is not watching over us....go ahead and delete this.For the rest of us.....pass this on!

Practical and prudent
Ambitious and Disciplined
Patient and Careful
Humorous and Reserved
I'm a simple unique person. Who enjoy chillin' out with my best buddies, and do lots other things(you will have to ask if u want to know). I'm Very convivial and a straight forward type of person. Living a life is tough alright, but living in denial is even worst. I've learned my lesson, it’s bizarre, bitter, and painful and yet very valuables, the experience not even money could buy. Trying to find friends is easy, but trying to find true friends is hard. After all friends do come and go, nonetheless nobody is perfect. Do appreciate a person who cares and loves you, while you can, when you can, because you'll never know when they might be gone for good.
The key to happiness is patience. When you're patience everything seems easy no matter how hard the problem is. Just be patience. Just be wise when you're unleashed the fury, choose your words and think wisely.
I'm greatful and Happy with my life now, it isnt perfect but its just adequate. I have true friends and family around me and I think that is more than enough. I Thank to the Al-Mighty for showed me such person. Okay thats bout it, i'll stop babbling, Thank You for dropping by at my page. Please, feel free and don't hesitate to drop a comments and complains (optional). If you need a friend to talk with, i am gladly to be a good listener. Later taters..Cheers :)
