Set The Wayback Machine to Christmas Morning's in The 60's....

My brother and I would jump up to see what Santa had brought....

(Thanks to the power of Google and Bing, I can go back to those days with these images )

    I played with most of those even if I didn't actually get them (we weren't "poor" -- we were "Po'")...

    The most vivid memory is induced by the hot-wheels track. Left red-hot welts on my legs and back when used for their alternate duty of administering an old-school whuppin' to some kid who apparently forgot his place...

    Dedicated Dad... yes the hotwheels track was a great weapon of choice for smacking a misbehaving child.

    Maybe instead of time-outs and ADHD meds we should sell the tracks as a disciplinary tool :)hahhahaha
