This is why we can't have nice things.

Heck, OS, my neice is 13 and the school she attends will not allow students to have pointed scissors, and they use a different kind of compass in math class that does not have the sharp point on the center arm. ...

Ah yes, the killer compass sent thousands to their demise back when, good thing they nixed that.

Ya know, I've only really started to feel truly old and tired in the last couple of years ... but it has little to do with my chronological age (of 106 :)) -- but has everything to do with what this country has become.

Progressive and PC and socialist etc is all destruction enough, but phasing in future generations as wussy pantywaists is just too much, it's just the final insult to the American can-do ethos, and it's wearing me down fast.

Wow, impressive sir! Nice to have you around!

In case you're serious, I wasn't. Figure people check a profile once in a while. I just feel that old sometimes. :)

My maternal grandma DID see 107 though, so there may be an outside chance.

I'm old enough to have used real McCoy cherry bombs and M-80s, too. The kind that would blow up toilets and gutters, all kinds of neat stuff.

I should have looked before I let my fingers across that keyboard!
