Guy "Say Pete, do you have any good excuses for buying another guitar? I saw this really nice Les Paul and I don't have a Les Paul yet, but the misses says I don't need another guitar."

St Peter "This is Heaven, you don't need guitars here."

Guy "Did my wife tell you to say that?"

It's 10 p.m. do you know where your parents are?

And then there was that time Rock & Rule aired on one of the 3 free TV channels and changed all our lives, as we struggled to adjust the rabbit ears. Interrupted only by the occasional glance out the window looking for the car pulling into the driveway because you were told to be in bed by 9:30 and better not be up when your folks got home.

They often didn't have head rests, so whiplash. They also came from a time when shoulder belts weren't common and seat belts in general were more of a suggestion.

And then there were the days when parents would stuff too many kids into the front of a single cab with a bench seat and put us 2 to a seat belt, and / or one kid on the lap of the driver. But those were also the days of the rear facing seat in the station wagon. I also remember my scout leader packing a group of us into the bed of a pickup, shit was scary but so much fun.
