When I was in junior high none of your parents were born yet.......eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek There were no computers, I had counting beads. There were no calculators. just chalk boards. There were no Robots, just slaves, bought in the market... Mom went for $2.00 We had light bulbs '1' but no electricity, it hadnt been invented yet. There was no sunshine unless you were rich. Air was rationed, one gulp per day. School was up a 10 mile steep hill, both ways. Food was plentifull if you could run fast and your spear was sharp. For xmas I got lego blocks............................................ .........1 I did have new shoes but I had to share them with the rest of the family. Vacations were trips to the basement for coal....... 4 miles straight down. Thats how old I am. God help me.......... :-) : : think that is bad? : : i was born in 1985!!!!!!! lol just messin with ya : : 'In my years there (1981-85)...' : : Ken, : : You geezer!

Don't worry, you will get here eventually  )Looking forward to another season battling (or better yet allying with) the Technokitties, Ken |

We've been focusing on having fun this year. So far this year, we've done some pretty fun stuff, and we are gonna kick it up a notch come Competition time! As for getting older and slowing down... you got me there. Although I'm a few years younger than you, I probably have to act older, since I've got two crumb-grabbers at home and one on the way!... ship date is in July! We would definitely like to team up with the Huskies once again... I must say that I'd rather be allied with you guys as opposed to being up against you. Andy B. |
