seems like the theme around here is being able to play outside.
I remember playing hide and go seek at 10 o'clock at night in the summer time.........
unfrotunately the neighborhood that I live in has to many predators in the area. meganslaw.com gives you information on these folks and sadly i seriously have over 200 just in my zip code. our city has four or five zip codes.
Xianne Fairchild who was idnapped and killed lived maybe 5 minutes away from us. The second victim who escaped (Mitzy) was abducted maybe 6 blocks away from our home.
So yeah I would hope parents would be more concerened when their children are out and about.

OMG, Kele, that is horrible. We literally don't have any convicted sexual predators within a three county radius but I do feel sometimes we are much to lax.
OK, I want Hitchcock (sp) back but I don't want to ever have to see another Clint Eastwood or Charles Bronson western again in my life. I would love to see the return of Star Wars.
Absolutely NOT!!!!

Giant SweetTarts, Hula Hoops, Double-Feature movies, Neighborhood Parties, Mallo Cups & collecting points, Vending Machines with Glass pop bottles, M*A*S*H, Pet Rocks, and the sound of kids laughing hysterically.

Bang- could you seriously hula hoop. I have never been able to and with hips as big as mine, you'd think it would be a cinch. So what's your record.
Oooh, I've got another. Jumping rope for fun. Remember all the rhymes, doing double dutch, having the jump rope a thon for the american heart association. Playing dodge ball in school and being able to pick out a halloween costume that might contain a gun or sword. Speaking of which, remember those awesome plastic costumes that ripped within one block of home and the cool plastic masks that went with them. Also those little plastic swords that used to come in every sandwich you ever ordered. Those were better than any McD's toy.

Thats funny Mitzel... a couple of my buddies still do the WAAAZZUUUP when I call...LOL
I thought of the Noid cuz the other night we were playing a trivia game and it was the answer to one of the questions..."In a Dominos Pizza advertising campaign what did they want you to avoid?" I got it right...heh
Pull Tabs huh, I cut myself real bad on one back in the day when they were on soda and beer cans...I think alot of other people did too and thats why they are gone...
