Durn it's a wonder there even is a country. None of us wore helmets when we rode, and we drank out of hose pipes (garden hoses for you Northern folks). We traveled on the back of pickup trucks, and played under the street light at night. and, We wore metal kleats when we played ball.
According to many of you. We should all have died. But then. That was back when America was free.
Well back in OUR DAY there wasn't 1200 lawyers for every lawsuit either. Back in our day when you hurt yourself through your own actions, it was personal responsibility!! :S
Now days if someone injures themselves doing something stupid, it is ALWAYS someone else fault!!:h
