I had a really cool bracelet with plastic charms on it… I recently gave it to a kid I know. I can’t remember whether or not I bought it, or if the charms came separate. It has a hot dog, a Special K cereal box, a little dog, a rollerskate I think, a teacup… Not sure what else.

What’s the coolest picture you ever printed on your silly putty? I once found a picture of a plymouth Prowler, and printed it onto the silly putty… Hehe- a Stretch prowler!

I wa big on pretending when I was little… I had a VERY active imagination, too, you know one where when you can almost see the stuff? Or at least, when you remember it later it seems like you saw it? Or maybe I’m just crazy, hehe…

My cousin and I LOVED Cat’s…

My cousin and I LOVED Cat’s Cradle, we’d play it for hours… We would sometimes make up these crazy ways to take the string, and they’d actually work… Of course, if you take it in a weird way, then the next turn gets more complicated… We got to be pretty darn good at it. I was trying to figure out how to make a Cat’s Cradle string for a kid I know. I dunno what type of string to use, though. I tried rubber bands, but it doesn’t work too well… I saw the Koosh book about the game, I think someone I knew had it, but I could never get the moves from the book…

Hey, my sister learned a similar song made up of product names from a friend at camp (80s), and taught it to me. She couldn’t remember it, but I found it one a website. I also found the older one that someone mentioned on this board… I know the one she knew is a bit different, I’ll ask her what’s different and post it too. The tune is kinda similar to the “Miss suzy had a baby” one. Here are both versions from the site: As I was walking down the street one dark and gloomy day I came upon a billboard and much to my dismay The sign was torn and tattered from the storm the night before The wind and rain had done it’s work and this it what I saw Smoke Coca-Cola Cigarettes, chew Wrigley’s Spearmint beer Ken-L Ration Dog Food keeps your wife’s complexion clear Simonize your baby with a Hershey’s candy bar And Texaco’s the beauty cream that’s used by all the stars So take your next vacation in a brand new Fridgidaire Learn to play piano in your winter underwear Doctors say that babies should smoke until they are three And people over 65 should bathe in Lipton Tea Here is the older version: As I was walking down the street a billboard met my eye. The advertising that was there would make you laugh or cry. The wind and rain had almost washed that old billboard away. But the advertising painted there would have that billboard say: Have a smoke of Coca-Cola. Chew catsup cigarettes. Watch Lillian Russell wrestle with a box of Cascarets. Pork and beans will meet tonight in a finish fight. Hear Chauncey DePeeuw speak upon sapolio tonight. Bay rum is good for horses; it is the best in town. Castoria cures the measles, if you pay ten dollars down. Teeth extracted without pain, a nickel or a half a dime. Ingersolls are selling now, a little behind the times. Chew Wrigleys for that headache. Eat Campbells for that cough. There’s going to be a swimming bee at the village watering trough. Buy a case of ginger-ale, it makes the best of broth. Shinola’s good to curl the hair, it will not rub it off!

My sis told me the rest of the frogs one: Three little spotted frogs, sittin on a spotted log, eating the most delicious bugs YUM YUM! One jumped into the pool, where it was nice and cool, now there are two brown spotted frogs. Here’s another, I’m not sure if I have it right or not: 10 little monkeys jumpin on the bed one fell off and hit his head mama called the doctor and the doctor said “no more monkeys jumpin on the bed!” 9 little monkeys…

I was definately a tomboy. My favorite things to do were to climb trees/fences, and to race people… Actually, I remember once when I was like 6-7, and I had cut my hair (yes I cut it- in kindergarten, very short- my mom kept the scissors away after that!) and someone called me ‘young man’ (I NEVER wore a skirt/dress, except for school picture day)… hehe.

What is a pinky ball? How big is it? Is it the size of a superball, or of a raquetball/handball?
