OMG WHEELIES! TRIGGER ALERT!

25. You and I are about the same age.

Things we did in the 1970s when the grownups weren't watching (mostly because they just wanted to have a beer in peace and be left alone):

- Made insects in metal trays from plastic goo in a very hot oven. Unsupervised. On our bedroom floor. Burned fingers.

- played with lawn darts with metal spikes.

- raided liquor cabinets at parties. Did not understand the concept of moderate drinking.

- see marijuana post above. With much older kids, er, adults. Who were definitely up to no good.

Etc. And yet many of us grew up to be contributors to society.
