I'm so old I Remember when:

[Nomadicus]

I remember how much fun we had in Driver's ED. Not. Not a single class day were we taught how to speed shift a 4 on the column.

I remember swinging on a maypole, climbing all over a 10 foot tall jungle gym, and getting burns from sliding down a 12 foot metal slide. All during recess in elementary school. And the merry-go-round, can't forget that one.

And the see saws....

And the see saws....

Oh how many splinters I got from those wooden see saws

And the see saws....

Remember how tall the swings were? I remember the boys would climb to the top and walk across the bar. I never had the nerve to try that.

I thought I was going to die in Driver's ED, seated behind the driver, who was told to pass a big rig on a one lane one way and the other lane the other way. She pulled out and there was another truck headed straight for our VW Beetle. Thank God the instructor leaned over and yanked the car back into our lane. Hey, I learned to drive standard. I taught my son and DD to drive standard.

I remember when every boy on the playground at recess got a swat on the behind with one of those paddles that came with a rubber band and a little red ball because we didn't start playing as fast as the teacher thought we should have. Not even a look at the girls.

We didn't have boys at my school. So I missed all that good stuff.

That's what I learned on, so when I had to drive mom's car for the driver's test, I failed the first one as I hit the brake thinking it was the clutch.
