The Beav bought an alligator or reptile once and kept in the bathtub. June had no clue a reptile was in their bathtub. We did stuff like that too. We had the town to ourselves and I mean, I was just six or seven. Maybe all the kids now like Obama cuz they've never known how to be self reliant and independent. They like smooth characters cuz they didn't get to grow up like we did and they have no compass it seems. It's obvious there's no civics being taught. Look at the contestant for Miss Teen Somebody and her answer about maps. She's on you tube explaining that people need maps. She definitely does. Totally.

The good old days truly were.

I know the episode. Actually, I am sure I’ve seen them 10 or more times each - never tire of them. We did have our own little worlds - our territory was vast and we weren’t affraid to venture out. Pirates with stick swords, cowboys and indians (sorry PC police) hide-and-seek at night, tree houses with no girls allowed (sorry PC police)and overnight slumber parties with lots of giggles, popcorn and boy talk. No wildness, weirdness, no danger. Just being kids in our kids world. Yes, the good old days were good, indeed.
