“If your friend jumped off a bridge, would you jump too?”

My personal favorite. The answer is, "Of course! All my friends are doing it."

LOL, I remember one time my mom was trying to backhand my brother next to me in the back seat, and he cagily kept his face just out of reach of her extended arm.

She jammed on the brakes, he lurched forward into her offensive zone where she could reach him, and she smacked him!

“700-Year-Old Groom”

Well done, men! That’s pretty old.

I spent 6 weeks in New Delhi. That was enough for a lifetime. I couldn’t understand the tourists who paid to be there. I was getting paid to work there and couldn’t wait to get out. This sums it up perfectly.

DH is officially a dad.

The only thing on that list I don't remember him doing is the stud finder bit.

"No, your other right" is practically a family motto.

LOL, back in the fifties or sixties, they probably all read from the same book that wasn’t the infamous Dr. Spock (the pediatrician, not the Vulcan!).

There is NO way my mom ever read THAT book...

Yeah, one day at lunch as I sat beside my Dad, he kind of reached up, maybe for something.

I dived out of my chair onto the floor, anticipating a smack.

With 5 kids, there would get to be a lot of joking and laughing and messing around.

I still do not know if the smack was coming, or he was reaching.

I still wonder what he thought, me diving onto the floor. Did he picture himself as a cruel brute?

Nothing was said. I re-sat and lunch continued.

Heh, he probably thought “Hey. What are you doing on the floor? Get up from there.” and went back to reading his paper, as they did in those days!
