Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild
SOME things you just CAN'T UNSEE..................
Just for the hell of it .......... while we were having a family get together ( which is often, my wifey has 2 brothers & 3 sisters, and we all live within an hour's drive of each other, their kids & grandkids are invited to the BIG get-togethers ) ANYWAY, one time, someone brought their class yearbooks from elementary thru high school, (years 1955-1968) as we browsed thru them, someone made the remark... LOOK ! no FAT kids, yep, as we dug further we found it to be very true. Of course there were exceptions but if you compare those photos to today's kids, and even most of our own, and then the grand-kids... well you get the picture ..??? yep as kid's (US) .. we were always outside playing from dawn to dusk, we didn't have very many "Fast-Food" joints till high-school ... and of course most of OUR moms didn't work much outside the home, although many did, but us kids were usually out playing till mom & or dad got home, ( yes we changed out of our "school-clothes" first ) HEAVEN FORBID ya didn't !! ... now todays kids, don't do any of that schitt we did !! they don't even TALK to each other.. they'd rather text someone sitting across from them .. UN-REAL !! the fabulous "electronics" we use today have robbed our kids and grand-kids of the childhoods we knew of ............ FAST-FOOD abounds, eating on the go, chemical additives & preservatives, .... I'm sure glad MY wifey and my relatives wifeys still make Home-Cooked Meals, it's amazing to see the grand-kids ask how to make "mashed-potatoes" ( REAL ONES ) or how to make French-Toast, or.... my car stopped, can YOU fix it ..?? my toilet keeps running, what's wrong with it ???? AHhhh ... "the good ol days" :thumbsup:
