Why can't they just play video games like other teens?
Mine are out of school today. They have had friends in and out all day.

For a while I heard the thump thump thump of kids dribbling a basketball followed by the boingy sound the rim makes..

Then I heard sawing. And hammering. Tools being dropped...

I look out to see two bikes flipped over, wheels removed, a board being attached to the wheels, tools spread everywhere...a machete? (The "saw" I presume?)

Do I even want to know or should I wait for the Youtube video?

3. Order a pizza. NOW
And bread sticks. The loaf you save may be your own.

4. LOL!
They had a name for it. It's not done but they managed to roll it down the driveway somehow.
