my memory of Sunday evenings is of me laying on my belly on the floor with my chin propped up, enamored with the exotic animals and fairy tales.  it was one of the nights i got to stay up late.  the other was Tuesdays, so i could watch Happy Day.   ::)

If you look at some younger men/women as more work than they are worth

I'm not sure when that happened because I use to think, "yay someone to play with."

...you can tell younger people how you used to get sent down to the shops as a 5 year old to buy some cigarettes for your parents, and they look at you as if you're making it up.

Rolo

You had a paper route when you were 12, and your parents didn't worry about you wandering the streets at 5 am, or doing your collection rounds to complete strangers.
