I was just looking at TV Cream’s Top 100 Toys, and really have to say that toys back then were a lot cooler, deadlier and just good ol fun compared to now.

I still go to the toy stores and like to see what they have now, and seriously they just seem so boring and plain. The other thing with toys now, they can’t hurt you. Yet after numerous class action law suits and parent interest groups they had to get safer. We used to have toys that would fire missiles and toy guns that looked real and fired metal balls at you.

Even out outside toys were death traps. I dont see any monkey bars any more, or big fort structures made out of splinter wood and rusted metal.

Now parents make it so tough for kids to go outside unsupervised and just go and run free. Telling them they can’t go there. So then they just get plopped in front of the TV and their game machines and get fat.

You know come to think of it I dont remember any fat kids when I was growing up. Sure we had some husky ones that were really just big for their age, but they were active like the rest of us.

Like I said we had it good.
