#10) I had these but they were somewhat disappointing. I still had fun but my expectations were to high I guess.

Ditto. But also we were so poor that I rarely got one.
DeleteEdward, I remember making my own.
DeleteAnon, they weren't too hard to make.

Anon, indeed.
DeleteParatroopers, needed a good arm but I'm not that old. Wink wink nod nod.
ReplyDeleteTerrytheterrible, we used to throw them out of trees.
Delete7 nails it.
ReplyDeletePS Remember the frogmen powered by baking soda?
edutcher, mine were always absolutely useless.
Delete#10. Or if your folks wouldn't buy you one because it was frivolous, we would take a handkerchief, some twine and a rock to make our own.
ReplyDeleteMike Guenther, there you go!
DeleteWe made our own paratroopers with plastic trash bags with yarn and our own army guys. Then hung a heavy washer on the guy and shot it off with a wrist rocket slingshot. Lost more than a few in the top of trees. ✌️😎
ReplyDeleteAnon, ejection seats?
DeleteLong range ejection seats - lol
DeleteAnon, LOL!
Delete1. Just too bad they're all inedible.
ReplyDelete2. I hope voters don't share that sentiment. People need to vote this election.
3. I did, too.
4. Haha.
5. That's pretty neat!
6. I bet they don't blame buffalo for global warming.
7. Or cat hair..
8. Our local wally world just narrowed the grocery aisles making it easier for people to do that, too.
9. Haha.
10. They were fun if you had enough soldiers to go with them.
Thank you, Odie.
You all be safe and God bless.
LindaG, ah yes the needed soldiers.
Delete...and on the sofas, and on the bed, and in the cars. Some things money can't buy.
ReplyDeleteHappy Happy, I'll bet you're referring to dog hair.
Delete#5 I had a girlfriend in high school who's mother flew replacement Corsairs to Marine bases in the Pacific during WWII. She was a hard ass and quite beautiful. She had stories of delivering a Corsair with a case of scotch in the pilots storage compartment.
ReplyDeleteTsquared, Keeping the boys happy.
DeleteThe secret was you had to wrap a rock in the shoot so it would travel higher when you threw it.
ReplyDeleteMe, and wear that helmet.
DeleteI had some paratroopers myself... and yes, they were fun - Rick
ReplyDeleteAnon, it's what every childhood needs.
DeleteMy remedy for the aisle blockers is to join the conversation. Never fails.
ReplyDeleteUnclezip, I'll keep that in mind.
DeleteThese guys were fun we either threw them from out from trees or we clipped them to our kite strings, the wind would send them up and you had to be good to pluck the string to release them, oh joy!
ReplyDeleteAnon, kite ejection systems? Cool.
DeleteNumber 4, and the party never ends! IYKYK
ReplyDeleteIYKYK, lucky Texas.
