What the hail is wrong with today's kids?
Feb 13, 2014, 3:39 PM

"Back in the day," we'd take a half inch wrench and steal the hood off the old widow woman's 64 Ford Falcon knock the hood emblem off it and use it for a sled. You could put 15 kids on one of those if everybody stood up!
Cardboard and coolers, Really?

I was thinking it's more that they don't really understand what a wrench is for.

It's all the "gangsta rap and violent video games". It's never the sex and drugs from rock and roll or the kill your parents and everything else from heavy metal. Get real dudue!

Did you just secretly call me doo doo? I'll have you know CCR never lead to the death of anything, other than the death of my love of music when I found out that John Fogerty is actually from California and didn't visit the deep south until way after CCR was well known.

a load of guys in a flatbottom boat W/ 35HP motor and a rope.
Everybody out of the boat in the middle of Watts Bar lake but at least 40 feet apart. The driver tries to weave in between the swimmers fast enough to keep them from catching and holding the rope. The rope must always be withing ten feet of a swimmer.
As guys grab the rope and hangs on the boat slows down more and more. When the last guy is 'on,' he becomes the driver.
Lifejackets are for girls only.

good. One of the buds was dancing on the front deck while on our way down the lake and the driver pulled back on the throttle just for a sec to mess with him. He went right over the front at 30 mph or so. About 30 secs later he corked up about 100 feet behind us with his beer straight up in his hand yelling h3ll yeah! Scared me sober...almost but that was an accident.
You guys did that on purpose? lol dayumn

We's ski behind it. It sucked. I had a Cypress Garden Tech I concave graphite ski which cost me 235 bucks. I think it was a 78" so I must have weighed about 175 at the time.
The driver just had to sit there and hold the steering wheel. I turned the boat anytime I wanted.
