I can picture it now,when it warms up, too cold at 27
, a yuppie parent, with paper in hand,
allowing his kids to go outside so he can engineer it for them.
They are raising a bunch of wimps.
What ever happened to ice on the pond, skating and playing hockey all day, lucky if the rich kid was there with his goalie pads, going home for supper going back out for another pick up game or sleigh riding till 10 PM.
Only thing your mother would say as ya flew out the door, "do ya have your mittens".
Ninnies and wimps i tell ya, ninnies and wimps.
