Up early this morn, watching news, catching up on email and i hear they now banned kids from taking a football to school in Toronto. Some adult got hit by one and had concussion so now generations of kids cannot take a ball to school. Believe it or not Nerf balls are allowed.
When i hear stuff like this i really want to get off the planet.
So no marbles, no peanut butter, no snowballs,no footballs, no cricket or baseballs, closed all Toronto school swimming pools so no learning to swim at school..............what a sterile life
Must be getting old .......i really feel sorry for the kids and future kids.
Heaven forbid theses administrators ever having pitched up at my elementary school.
1)Marbles ...top game. Included life lessons of deception, fraud, theft, deceit, chance, gambling, loss, riches, innovation, creativity, sharing, loans, repayments But i guess thats all to educational lets rather focus on the one idiot in a 1000 thats gonna shove one where it dont belong.
Kennetjie......boy this game would give them instant seizure.
Makes use of a short piece of broom handle bout 18" to 24" long and another piece 4 to 6 inches long. Make groove in ground using long piece groove to be same length and depth as short piece.
Game starts by holding short piece across long piece with one finger the moving hand holding this combo upwards and letting go of the small pieces such that it flies upwards. When it comes down you gotta whack the little piece as far as possible.
No helmets, gloves or face or neck or body protection used in this game. If you aint fast enough to either catch the flying short piece or get you body out the way you got guaranteed pain and bruising.
Wow another life lesson ....stay awake, keep focused and eye in the game, stay fit and healthy or you aintp gonna survive.
Boy life was tough in themdays
But what would they say if they actually saw our potatoe guns. Yup guns at school. These guns worked with one cap. You took the chamber out pushed it into a potatoe which had it take a triangular wedge out of the potatoe. Chamber returned to gun cap placed over small hole in top of chamber. Gun cocked and fired at bare legs preferable just behind the knee. (oh and we all wore shorts (wonder when they gonna ban those) ) .
Yeah you felt that sting
Guess we were all budding mobsters.
Well guess they all better off now with traquilizers and therapists
This is usually where i blame lomls industry.....(brotherhood of insurance industry) .......and boom the battle ensues.
