I thought about it, but I need to ramble about something for a minute.
Old people. Seriously, stop driving in parking lots. You can't see anything and I have the right of way at all times!
Today I almost got slammed by 2 cars coming out of there spots on both sides of me, AND THEY WERE BOTH OLD PEOPLE DRIVERS! What did they do? They didn't look at what was behind them, and drove off.
I'm sorry, but I don't want to know what would have happened to my legs had I not been fast enough to dive in one of the carts to get away.
Okay....what the heck is going on with this forum lately? Dum@azz kids posting nothing but crapola, and every other post of mine getting deleted.
I know I haven't been here much lately, but geeez...is anyone else noticing this? Is it just me?

Not to be snarky, but you know how to use the ignore feature. If your gripe is that immature kids are posting for attention, then don't give it to them.

The amount of posts and the fact threads become inundated means ignoring people changes the flow of the thread. There's really not much you can do about them apart from wait until they cook a bit longer...like in about 10 years.

Just my two cents.
It's quite obvious to me that I don't poke around CD that much. I hit my SFs then I'm out.

I LOVE George! He's right. We never had to wear helmets, make sure our pjs were fireproof or our parents knew where we were all the time. I know the world has changed but I do agree with him to a certain point.

I grew up in Queens NY didn't know what a helmet was! Fastfoward 20 years and I'm raising my kids in Florida,and my Mother is on my ass why don't I make my kids wear helmets when they are biking up and down my 200 ft driveway? Maybe cause they are more likely to die of heatstroke from a plastic helmet!!

Same here. My friends and I used to play tackle football in the middle of the street with no equipment or helmet. Rode bikes in the streets of Brooklyn and Queens with no helmet, played with fire works on July 4th and in winter we'd sit on a garbage can cover when there was ice on the street and grap onto a car bumper at the stop sign to go for a ride. Every day was a new scrape, bruise, or gash. Not one of us got killed.

In Milwaukee, Wisconsin we hitch hiked sitting on the back bumper of cars that had continental kits, or holding onto the back of step vans.
