    I was driving by an empty playground the other day (thanks flu) and wondered out loud "Doesn't anybody double dutch anymore!?"

    The old school days, when folks actually had fun, conversated with one another just positive vibes. Fast forward: kids killing kids, no one likes conversations, all cell phones a.k.a hooked on phonics. Just sad to see what today's time has become.
