The only one I missed was the tonsils party. They’d have five or six kids all go in at the same time to have their tonsils removed. They’d come back with stories about all the ice cream you wanted and other crazy stuff. Doctor said I was too skinny and he didn’t want to operate on me.

Had all the other stuff, still have the tonsils.

I must be the only other person from my generation who still has my tonsils. My mother said that tonsil removal was a stupid fad, and she wouldn’t let me have them removed. She was right.
