Somebody said lawn darts weren't safe so they outlawed them. Whatever. Lawn darts weren't unsafe, kids who threw them at other kids were

My memory of the good ole days is filled with thoughts of the most delectable dietary delights ever invented in Delaware; I would pull weeds all day at the beach for g-parents to go buy one::

Good thread. Discovered at the age of 5 that the U shaped wire handle for my older sister’s creepy crawler moulds fit nicely into a outlet- lesson learned

What a coincidence. I lved at Rehobeth Beach summer of '74 out Rehobeth Ave. over the canal in an old farm house (near Suburban Propane) where they grew produce. I picked produce so I could stay longer and eat more good hoagies and Nic-o-bolis. I left my car home and just had a bicycle. Great times!

My g-parents owned Phil-mor cottages just over the bridge by the ice plant

Oh yeah, Phil-mor cottages. That's the place where you never saw weeds in the gardens.

Back when kids watched TV shows about a good little boy who loved his dog, played outside, and fixed his bike

Ouch. I had one of those and it burned the crap out of one of my fingers. Lesson learned on handling hot items. Imagine selling this today!

Survivors of the pre-safety era. Remember comparing scars, stitches, and, and number of bones broken? Life was so great it hurt pretty bad sometimes
