Ok, since i'm on a roll, what did you do for fun as a kid when you were growing up. Especially in the non tech

generation. like in the 70's & stuff. WHEN YOU HAD TO USE YOUR IMAGINATION.

My fave's were playing games like TV tag, building a clubhouse outta refridgerator boxes, man hunt, then...hehehe...playing charlies angels or star wars....lol

    We played war with our fake guns (which might get you shot today). Our whole neighborhood got into it. Also all the kids would put on skits for the parents out in front of our house.

    I always liked hide and go seek too.

    Also we never had a TV growing up until I was like 13 so that wasn't even an option.

    riding bikes and making things. give me a ream of construction paper, scissors and some glue and that was an entire afternoon. or using all the cushions in the house to built forts. although it wasn't in the 70s.

    climbing trees and rollerskating - in the 60's they weren't roller blades - and we made out skate boards out of our old roller skates. Recycling at it's finest.
