oh man. back in 1968 we had a concrete driveway that had about 5' drop down to the road. our plywood skateboards had walnut wood wheels. we hit a pebble on the way down and did head-dives into the concrete, if we missed all the pebbles we risked getting hit by a car. i firmly believe parents, back then, used this method to 'thin the herd'.
around this time my parents made liver for dinner twice a month. i hated liver and vowed i would never eat it. the rule in our house was that if you didnt eat all your dinner you go straight to bed, no dessert. so those two days when i came home from school and smelled liver i would just go straight to my bedroom bypassing the disgusting liver dinner regardless of the dessert.
years later i figured out my parents made liver whenever they wanted a night of sex. i was a slow learner...
