the kind of kids who thought that wearing a towel attached to their shoulders would indeed allow them to fly

Ban towels. Ban roofs.

Banning Jarts showed me, clearly, that America had been taken over by the "safety Nazis", and was doomed. Here we are, now, with helicopter parents and bubble-wrapped snowflake kids wondering how it got so bad.

I can tell you: It got this bad because we let the @$$holes get away with banning Jarts.

My older brother and I got a set of lawn darts for Christmas... had to wait til spring to play with them.

When summer got around we were bored just throwing them into the the little yellow rings so we made it a bit mor interesting....

We decide to throw the darts OVER the house and try to hit the rings...

Which, with a forewarning(Bombs Away!) my brother threw it and I watched for it as it sailed over and eventually into the ring.

So far so good. Well, our little brother wanted to play but his throws were a little short... but the height was prefect.. to spike into the roof of the house.

By next Christmas the lawn darts disappeared as our father wasn't too pleased to have a leaky roof.
