    Another memory of childhood is when we used to have those rhymes that we would would do with a friend. You know, where you would clap your hands together and sing some song to it.

    Someone help me out, WTH do you call that? Hopefully someone knows what I'm talking about.
    Miss Lucy had a baby
    She named him Tiny Tim
    She put him in the bathtub
    To see if he could swim.
    He drank up all the water
    He ate up all the soap
    He tried to eat the bathtub
    But it wouldn't fit
    Down his throat.
    Miss Lucy called the doctor
    The Doctor call the nurse
    The Nurse called the lady
    With the alligator purse.
    In walked the doctor.
    In walked the nurse
    In walked the lady
    With the alligator purse.
    "Measles," said the doctor.
    "Mumps," said the nurse.
    "Nothing," said the lady
    With the alligator purse.
    Miss Lucy kicked the doctor.
    Miss Lucy kicked the nurse.
    Miss Lucy paid the lady
    With the alligator purse.


    THANK YOU GOOGLE :laugh:

    I remember that one! And:

    Miss Mary Mack
    Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack
    All dressed in black, black, black
    With silver buttons, buttons, buttons
    All down her back, back, back
    She asked her mother, mother, mother
    For fifty cents, cents, cents
    To see the elephants, elephants, elephants
    Jump over the fence, fence, fence
    They jumped so high, high, high
    They touched the sky, sky, sky
    And didn't come back, back, back
    Till the fourth of July, July, July

    And...............

    miss suzie had a tugboat
    the tugboat had a bell
    miss suzie went to heaven
    and the tugboat went to
    hello operator please give me #9
    and if u disconnect me i will chop off your
    behind the frigerator there was a piece of glass
    miss suzie sat upon it and she broke her little
    ask me no more questions tell me no more lies
    the boys are n the bathroom zipping up their
    flies are n the meadow bees are in their hives
    Miss Suzie and her boyfriend are kissing in
    the D-A-R-K D-A-R-K
    Dark Dark Dark!

    I was allowed an hour of TV a week. I spent my hour on either Black Belt Theater (Hawaii's random kung fu movie channel) or on Knight Rider. Haha.

    I remember spending A LOT of time at the beach (born and raised in Hawaii...duh, we were there at least a few days a week), my Machete I got for my 8th birthday, camping by waterfalls, running away from neighborhood dogs on my bike (which had those little clinky beads on the spokes), sneaking into the movies, playground fights...

    ...those were the days. :)
