3. My father and I were wrestling in our living room

a good natured romp. (This was back in 1971) I took off my sneaker and threw it at my father. He ducked and it hit my step-mother's antique lamp on the TV and broke into about 4 million pieces. We were both in the dog house for about ten years. It was an incredibly beautiful item, about 200 years old and purchased during a trip to Scotland.

Yes, boys and girls, don't throw things in the house.

7. So I played with chemical rockets instead

She didn't spot the dent in the ceiling for several weeks, but once she figured out what had happened, wow. She went thermal. :rofl:

My parents were out and one of my cousins was watching my sister and I when the actual experiment happened. If they'd been there, the noise alone would have got me grounded for at least 10 years. :P

10. That is BY FAR the best episode of the Brady Bunch!

Okay, maybe the "haunted house" one is a close second.

But the leaky vase gets me every time!

:D
