    Buuut No0o0o00o...my plan was thwarted when a FEMALE pizza girl came strolling up. Iwould have felt bad doinbg that to her. It's scary enough delivering pizzas for a guy,I could just imagine how scary it is sometimes for a female.

    <<<admits to doing that and driving her kids crazy!

    <<<made a fist, drew eyes on the index finger/knuckle area, lipstick on the thumb, piece of material over the fist and did puppet shows behind the couch.

    I also did the sock skating in the hall, especially when the hardwood floors had been waxed.

    I'd forgotten about the glue skin!

    Also did the soda can clomping and the chains of soda/beer can pop tops.

    Daisy chains anyone?

    I thought of one more thing...picking my nose...every once in a while during a santana you get that dry stuff in there and it just has to be gotten out. There I said it.

    Do they still make those skates? I remember them when I was a kid in the 70s, but not sure if today's kids would have them or not.... Mommies?
