Not bad enough they tell ya the daily Dangers of cold in the winter, now they have added Summer heat Dangers.

I was working in the front yard early this morning when a young lady

walks by with her kids, maybe 4 or 5 yrs old. She's wallking in the

early morning and carrying a water bottle. Smart girl.

Then she says to her kids, we will have to stay in the house Tuesday

and Wednesday because it's going to be too hot to go out!! Brainwashed girl.

What ever happened to letting the kids sit in the shade and read or

go under the hose. Now the kids think that when it's too hot they

have to stay in the house. More down time for them staring at the

tube or playing mind numbing video games.

Amazing how many of us survived the summer months, playing all

all kinds of games outside from morning till dark,going under the hose,

selling lemonade, having fun before AC was around or not being able

to afford a fan.


Listen to the news so they can tell us idiots how we should live in the Summer too. :hihi: They have our best interests at heart, their not trying to bring in ratings and advertising $ or anything. :doh:

I recently asked my brother, Mountain Caster, if he remembered it being this hot when we were growing up.(in Kentucky). he said hell yes, it was hotter, a lotta times over 100 degrees. And do you remember where we were? Playing baseball or waiting to play the winning team. All freakin day long. No water bottles then, maybe a slurp outa a hose if the water was turned on. If there weren't enough guys to play a game, then we played home run derby. That would kill me today.:spin:

OH yeah Fred, i still remember the after taste from the rubba hose. :)
I slept in the attic with no fan just an open screened window about 3'x4'. I can still remember my Dad hosing off the roof with the hose around 8pm to cool it down a bit as the steam rose off the roof. :hihi:

all day at and in the river or the pond or the resevoir :kewl: The best of times and the best memories.

Guess I`ll have to stay inside all week :bl2:

I thought the same thing Dave..too hot....paaaleeeeze

& every kid had in their back pocket a water spicket knob=================ssooooooooooooooo when ya were going home ============= up the higher end ==you could turn on someones water for a drink or a soaking :spin:

We would just get into a higher than average amount of trouble. Usually eneded up getting jumped by the West Rox or Hyde Park kids at the pool. They would be pissed when we went after their girlfriends :musc: :fishslap:


Clammer - thanks for reminding about the spicket knob

I also remember the odd friend passed out in heat stroke

The Quincy Quarries :musc:

boot the kids outside ;).. but, Please, keep an eye on your four legged friends.. two poor dogs have died in hot cars here on the cape this summer.. stupid owners.. they should be locked in the hot car all day!
My golden is stretched out in front of the AC as I type... :rollem: yeah.. she's spoiled... :)

Yeah, what ever happened to water pistol fights or even water pistols.:huh: Used to drink from them too ,with their distinct plastic flavor.:hihi: They were like 29 cents, so you guarded it with your life if you were lucky enough to get one for the summer. :D

It's hot f#% that//////

How about leisurly walk through the streets in Iraq with a helmet and a flak vest f@#$%^ing sissies. At least you have water that has been boiling in your canteen since morning...:yak6:

running back in for your saved change
to get root-beer popsicles or fudgesicles

slip and slides....waterballoon contests

And 70 pounds of pack (light summer load) with 130 degrees, which they say is not a dry heat.

Good point Ed...

Try rigging up for a jump and waiting a couple fo hours on the ramp at Pope Airforce Base to get on a C130 to fly nap of the earth for an hour with air conditioning that doesn't because the air is still too warm at that low altitude.............

Blasphemy!!! we used to drink from the hose in the barn...ooh it was the best, as the water from the farm well ALWAYS seemed to taste better and colder than any other!! and when we were playing down in the hay field we drank straight from the stream that ran along side it.... by todays standards I would be dead from it!!!:smash:

Icey COLD well Water! Do you have any idea how many people have never had that pleasure in this country? Millions, I'd wager. And millions more have never knelt to drink from a stream. Pity.

:eek5: sad but true....

Remember the Blue porcelin cup hanging on the barn next to the hand pump. :hihi: Nothin ever tasted colder and better than the cold water that came out of that pump after walking behind a hay bailer pitchin #60 bales onto the wagon in the heat all afternoon. :doh:

Now here I am at a loss as to why anyone would chose to exit a perfectly funcionting aircraft by any means other than an exit ladder with the wheels chocked on terra firma...

Ever pick up a bale that had a po'ed snake hanging outa it?:shocked: My Grandmother in Morgantown had a tin cup. Jeeze the mention of that takes me back 40 years, and I can just almost taste that water. Thanks for that one, Dave.

My pleasure Fred. :btu: My best memories are from my uncle's farm. Never knew a more peaceful place in my life.:) When i was 15 our Babe Ruth League team was state champs and went all over the country to play. I chose to work on the farm that summer rather than go, they thought i was crazy, never regretted it.:doh:
Yeah, the black snakes would be half way stickin outa the bales either with or without heads. :hihi:Coolest thing was when you made the last cut of alfafa with the mowing machine, the quail would fly up in front of ya the whole distance. :hihi: No way you can ever go back to those great times. :doh:

No way you can ever go back to those great times. :doh:
your doin it now :btu:

your doin it now :btu:

Ya know your right Slingah :hihi:, and this is one of the few places you can do it, because the people here are the salt of the earth, the real thing, the absolute Best of the Best. I luvs you guys. :D

I use to think the same thing about Subs when I was in the Navy.....Why would anybody in their right mine get on a ship that was Designed To Sink...just never made sense.

Hey Fred, this one's for you. :D

You are right, it is a shame most children in America no longer have the opportunity to drink cold well water or drink from a spring creek....

When we were kids, we spent the summer runnning through the woods and when we got hot we went for a dip in Misquitohawk Brook clothes and all...........

We used to go to the pool and beat up the East Dedham kids:grins:

KARL F

The Four Yorkshiremen

Eric Idle: Very fussable, isn't it? Very fussable.

All: Right, all right.

Graham Chapman: Good glass of Chƒteau de Chasselas, ain't just that, sire?

Terry Jones: Oh, you're right there, Obadiah.

Graham Chapman: Right.

Eric Idle: Who would have thought, thirty years ago, we'd all be sitting here drinking Chateau de Chaselet, eh?

All: Aye, aye.

Michael Palin: Them days we were glad to have the price of a cup of tea.

Graham Chapman: Right! A cup of cold tea!

Michael Palin: Right!

Eric Idle: Without milk or sugar!

Terry Jones: Or tea!

Michael Palin: In a cracked cup and all.

Eric Idle: Oh, we never used to have a cup! We used to have to drink out of a rolled-up newspaper!

Graham Chapman: The best we could manage was to suck on a piece of damp cloth.

Terry Jones: But you know, we were happy in those days, although we were poor.

Michael Palin: Because we were poor!

Terry Jones: Right!

Michael Palin: My old dad used to say to me: "Money doesn't bring you happiness, son!"

Eric Idle: He was right!

Michael Palin: Right!

Eric Idle: I was happier then and I had nothing! We used to live in this tiny old tumbled-down house with great big holes in the roof.

Graham Chapman: House! You were lucky to live in a house! We used to live in one room, all twentysix of us, no furniture, half the floor was missing, we were all huddled together in one corner for fear of falling.

Terry Jones: You were lucky to have a room! We used to have to live in the corridor!

Michael Palin: Oh, we used to dream of living in a corridor! Would have been a palace to us! We used to live in an old watertank on a rubbish tip. We'd all woke up every morning by having a load of rotten fish dumped all over us! House, huh!

Eric Idle: Well, when I say a house, it was just a hole in the ground, covered by a sheet of tarpaulin, but it was a house to us!

Graham Chapman: We were evicted from our hole in the ground. We had to go and live in a lake!

Terry Jones: You were lucky to have a lake! There were 150 of us living in a shoebox in the middle of the road!

Michael Palin: A cardboard box?

Terry Jones: Aye!

Michael Palin: You were lucky! We lived for three months in a rolled-up newspaper in a septic tank! We used to have to go up every morning, at six o'clock and clean the newspaper, go to work down the mill, fourteen hours a day, week in, week out, for six pence a week, and when we got home, our dad would slash us to sleep with his belt!

Graham Chapman: Luxury! We used to have to get up out of the lake at three o'clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of hot gravel, work twenty hours a day at mill, for two pence a month, come home, and dad would beat us around the head and neck with a broken bottle, if we were lucky!

Terry Jones: Well, of course, we had it tough! We used to have to get up out of the shoebox in the middle of the night, and lick the road clean with our tongues! We had to eat half a handful of freezing cold gravel, work twenty-four hours a day at mill for four pence every six years, and when we got home, our dad would slice us in two with a breadknife!

Eric Idle: Right! I had to get up in the morning, at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill and pay millowner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our dad would kill us and dance about on our graves, singing Hallelujah!

Michael Palin: Aah. And you try to tell the young people of today that, and they won't believe you!

All: No, no they won't!
