Adventures With Tempting Fate...or Pushing Your Luck.

It started when I was young. I went swimming once right after eating. Didn't even wait a half hour like I was taught to do.

I ate all my Halloween candy without it being X-rayed

Never used any form of protection while intimate with the ladies, in the 70's

I trusted a fart.

Got married senior year of HS. 3 kids, 9 grandkids and 40 years later (at end of the month) we're both still alive, kind of.

Here's one a lot of us can relate to: I stayed out all day as a kid and never had a cell phone, my parents knew I'd be okay and come home when it was dinner time.

I drank water straight from the garden hose. I sat right in front of a CRT TV, and I didn't go blind and I don't glow in the dark.

We weren't allowed to stay in the house all day. Our parents kicked us out to go play. This usually meant we were left to our own devices, to do something stupid without adult supervision. No one came looking for us. The only caveat is that we had to be home when the street lights came on. Thank goodness for slow starting sodium lamps that gave a few minutes warning before they really start throwing light.

My dad used his arm as a seat belt while I stood in the seat next to him. Fizzicks wasn't so important back in the 60s.
