It wasn't too long ago that senior boys would keep their deer rifles in the gun racks of their trucks.

To be fair, it wasn't too long ago that a boy wouldn't think of using his deer rifle on anything but a deer. Or a squirrel if you really wanted to see an explosion of gore. Nowadays you give a kid a wedgie and the next day he's taking out 20 classmates.

When I was in high school, carrying a Buck knife on your belt was a big fad. I never got one because we were just too poor. But somewhere along the way, I'd picked up a cheap replica of an old military dagger at a flea market for $1. I strapped that to my belt and wore it to school every day of my junior year. Never got in trouble for it, or even questioned about it. Can you imagine a kid doing that now?

Back when parents were real terrorists 'allowed' to parent. Their weapons of mass destruction were whatever was handy. Belt, spoon or broom handle.

The 'takes a village' was more the neighborhood moms with their own weapons of mass destruction.

I don't remember any of them being members of the PTA.

I used to think it wasn't quite fair until those Alabama girls put a whupping on the boy's in the championship basketball game.

Is that where those 5th grade girls were from? Didn't know that.

Alabama's got some girls over there that will take your lunch money. I know a few that can run through a pack of bic razors faster than I can.

When I was single, I had a rule that I wouldn't date a woman with a better beard than me.

But now that you're married you lightened up on that rule a bit?

If I could find me one of these, I'd buy it and ride it.

Then I'd make a ramp, and jump it.

Then I'd pray the Lord my soul to take.

My daughter gets her learners permit next year and the car she's going to practice on is a stick.

Maybe I should teach her to steal cars too.
