Bang, Bang - Gotcha

Cops and robbers, we used to play
      Our default way to pass the day

   We'd trade off, so we'd not get too bored
      Not enough excitement, too little reward

Gosh. Kids will be kids everywhere, I guess. They used to play this in the USSR, but with kids and parents. And the kids used real bullets sometimes. Never got reported. ~ George Orwell

For me, it was Cowboys and Indians. I usually chose to play the Indian - stealthy and quiet. :) Linda

I guess they want to teach you how to scratch your ass and grease the politicians' palms, i/o of just picking your nose all day. ~ Booger King

Brought back memories Gershon. Use to love to play Zorro. Saw him perform at a stadium my parents took me too. He came up to me on his horse and it was the greatest thing on earth for me. My parents were great to do that for me. Miss them Dearly. Rene and Anais both French and Spanish. Thanks for the memories...
