Still have the space invaders game that is about the same size and it still works. I also have several of the GI Joe figures including the submarine. Those were the good old days

He caught it with his head. Got my butt tore up twice...first time for throwing it to him and 2nd time for telling my mom it wasn't my fault he couldnt catch

Not only that, I also used to see how high straight up I could throw them. I guess not everyone here tried that. When there was no other kids around I could find ways to entertain myself. But how many of us held the "speaker hole" of the machine guns next to our ears then pulled the trigger?

I operated a fleet of Tonka trucks under a shade tree in our yard. Ain't no telling how many yards of the same dirt I hauled around. I was outside playing by 7am and was told by my momma not to even think about coming back in the house until late that afternoon. She would bring me a sammich at lunch and me and ole shep my sooner dog would take turns taking a bite. Also, we didn't have AC until I was in my late teens.

I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time. NRA Life Member

One night there was a bull standing in the middle of the road...she slammed on the brakes & I rolled off into the floor. It.Was.Awesome.
