Do You Guys Remember Jerrold?

[PM5K]

Seeing how easily my kids can get bored got me to thinking about how easily I was entertained as a kid, and while this isn't the best example, I do remember how funny I found it when the cable company would change the channels up and I'd go through them to see what was what and try to memorize them all over again, which got me to thinking about Jerrold:

I'd probably like to have one of those right now, but I'm far too lazy to get up every time I want to change the channel, but I did always enjoy the clicking sound you'd get.

Shit, I didn't have one either. We just threw rocks.

We played war, and next to our house was a field. We'd build "forts" out of plywood and other things, and then hurl dirt clods at each other from the field. Needless to say, there was always a lot of crying going on. :rollin
