Remember when we used to draw planes, warships, tanks, etc.?
I’m 45 and that’s what we did. In fact, in high school, we used to keep a rifle or shotgun in gun racks in our pickup trucks at school. I remember showing my deer rifle to the principal!
Are we just old farts, or is the world really screwed up?
Yes, ever since the first man Adam [NOT Bill Clinton] took of the Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge between Good & Evil and ate of it.
I used to draw all that stuff. I had (have) a talent for it. But it was just doodling to me. And I'm sure it was for this kid.
Are we just old farts, or is the world really screwed up?
I'll be 64 in three weeks. I'm not an old fart. At 45, neither are you. So, the answer must be: The World's really, really screwed up.
On the bright side though, I just recently gave most of my guns to a 10 year old who has become an avid pheasant hunter along with his dad & mom. So there's some hope out there.
Yes and yes............
All the time and would get punished for it too, but for different reasons, like day dreaming and not paying attention.
These people have no business teaching anyone anything. They are dolts that can't handle reality.
Yes.
The world is being run by a bunch of pansies. And at 45 I ain’t that old.
Ok, I’m 41 and I remember just many guys having a decent sized pocket knife at all times. While they didn’t take it out and wave it around and never threatened a person with it, we all knew they had them. Most of these were the hunting and fishing guys. Good ol’ boys who wouldn’t be caught dead without their Buck knife.
Most of the same guys missed school the first day of deer season. A couple of my friends would call me that night if they’d gotten one. And I’m pretty sure I remember gun racks (WITH guns) in trucks in the student parking lot. Don’t ever remember a big deal about it other than the principal trying to enforce that ‘Deer season isn’t an excused absence!’
