yeah and a cast on your arm was a badge of honor...

Absolutely. I remember breaking a kid's arm playing soccer. He was proud because he had a cast, and I was proud because I kicked the ball hard enough to break his arm. A win-win scenario.

You bet! A kid I knew in grade school fell off a REALLY high piece of playground equipment and broke his elbow. He was proud as could be.

I remember me, my brother and our friends all bragging about our cuts and scrapes, peeling back bandages, "wanna see?"

How we survived riding bikes barefoot and without helmets down very steep streets, is a mystery for the ages, I guess.

We played kick-the can everynight in the summer until at least ten o'clock, too. I tore the leg right off my capris climbing over the neighbor's fence.

Those were the days!
