i kid, scout, it's a good way to get attention. one of my sister's favorite teachers would bring in a cauldrin, some dry ice, decorate the classroom, dress like a witch and quote from macbeth every year.[/quote]
HA! I love it. That's great, Louie! Whatever it take to engage the little shits in literature.

No tale. Richard Nixon grew up in a Sear's house and it's perfectly preserved at his library in Yorba Linda. There are thousands of them all over the country, look in the basement for numbered joists. Every part was numbered for assembly.littleao wrote:Thats cool. Back when Sears was everything. I was in a house in farmingdale, ny that was supposed to have been a mail order delivered in sections to its location and assembled on the site. It was only a couple of blocks from the rail road. Might be a tale.
Sorry this is off topic.

46 years old but still young enough tastes that my teenagers steal my music. I lived with my grandparents in the summers when I was young and my pappy had a cushman scooter and a Honda SL 70. I started riding those and never forgot how much fun they were.
I didn't get back on 2 wheels again til I was 36 when I was given a Goldwing by a friend. I was living in Kansas City then and it was NOT fun commuting50miles on big city interstates so I wound up giving it to another friend. Moved to Tucson, got my scoot and I'm not having a blast.

When I used to teach high school English (and taught this book EVERY YEAR), I would come in one day in overhaul pants and t-shirt and role-play Scout as Mary played her, and answer student questions.
Ooops, again, don't want to hijack, so...I'm still 36 years old.[/quote]
Possibly THE coolest post! And the definitive great American novel....hmmm, I may rename my scoot...

Poll needs way more options. I voted still in school. But only because I'm still taking grad classes occasionally and will be taking the Safe Rider Course in a couple weeks.
I also HAD the wife and got rid of her.
No kids ever.
Have had houses and now have another.
Own my own business.
Have a girlfriend.
etc. etc. etc.

I'm each of these to some degree:
-I got the wife, I got the kids, I got the mortgage
-Kids are gone, just me and the missus having fun!
-The grandkids like it when I tell war stories
49 Married with a 7 yr old, my 25 & 22 year old kids are on their own, and I'm a Granddad. The accountability is good for me and parenthood keeps me young.

Currently 46, but I act like a kid. Mario Cart, climb on the playground equipment, that kind of stuff. Wife, two daughters (6 and 9), 1 dog, 1 cat, 2 fish tanks, 1 scooter. The good thing about having kids when your are 40 is that it gives you a great excuse for climbing on the jungle gym stuff at McDonalds playland. ''

a couple of years ago, my bf and i ate at this mcdonalds after a tennis tournament and they had the biggest playland i've ever seen, there were no kids playing so we went in and enjoyed ourselves after a couple of minutes, we got kicked out and were told we were going to break the equipmentgr8dog wrote:The good thing about having kids when your are 40 is that it gives you a great excuse for climbing on the jungle gym stuff at McDonalds playland.

63, married, 1 son (15) and 1 daughter(13), 2 cats (Fatback and Mr. Grumpy), 2 dogs, Nelly (mutt) and Twigs (rescue greyhound) at home. Oldest daughter (36) and 1 grand daughter (3) in Oklahoma. Lovely wife is a mere child of 54.
As far as the poll, most of the categories fit. What to do??
I worked in the auto department at Sears when I was 16. When closing at night it was my job ( ) to ride the scooters (Allstates) and the Scrambler motorcycle into the garage. Of course, I had to ride them around the parking lot a while first. Loved the blue Allstate with the white walls.

In July 2010 I will be 40. I have the hardest time with telling people I will be 40 minus 1 this summer. I can handle 40...just not the almost 40. How wierd is that?
That said, we have ten furkids, a featherkid and a resident frog. No human children. Just us and the non-speaking.
We LOVE our two wheels. Both of them.
