When I was a kid and my
parents corrected me, they yelled at me. Now, when I correct my own kids, they still yell
at me! We were so poor I
had to use my little brother for a trampoline.
I always had my nose in a book.
My parents couldn't afford Kleenex.
I remember playing doctor
when I was a kid. Actually, what I remember were all the little girls asking me to send
them to a specialist.
My mother wanted a baby,
but my father wanted a puppy. So they compromised. They had me and fed me Alpo.
I was such an ugly baby my
brother wouldn't play with me. The neighbor kids wouldn't play with me. The dog wouldn't
play with me. However, there was this one roach ...... Eugene.........
Kids today don't realize how easy
they have it. When I was a kid, we actually had to get out of the car and open
the garage door.
Hey, I had to ride a half-mile to
school in a Plymouth with no CD deck.
