In 1971, I too was eight years old living in Miami where I was born and we moved at the end of that year. <BR/><BR/>And Kim, you're not a perv at all! I got caught pulling the neighbor boy's pants down behind the cherry hedge. Now he's in his 40's, and a State Trooper!....LOL!<BR/>(Um...No officer....that was NOT me who pulled your pants down!)Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06105127093794363185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-43561154285552440872007-10-18T17:29:00.000-05:002007-10-18T17:29:00.000-05:00Yajeev, I was just kidding when I asked if you wer...Yajeev, I was just kidding when I asked if you were Andy, but it did feel slightly weird when an Andy commented on your blog immediately after I did. <BR/><BR/>As for the kind things my Andy said, I think he'd be quite surprised if he could see the changes 35 years of couchpotatoism can make.<BR/><BR/>Patsy, yes, it is.

I hope she appreciates him.<BR/><BR/>Sister-Three, I could always charm the little boys and the really old men, but the guys my own age were much more difficult. Now that I'm pushing 65, I guess I'll lose my luck with the really old men.<BR/><BR/>Holly, you're right, Kim was the older one, but I believe her when she says naked Barbies weren't her idea. In the pre-Andy days, playing with Barbies consisted mainly of changing their outfits over and over, so the au naturel Barbies was probably Andy's idea. You can't blame a guy for trying to raise the interest level of an otherwise boring girly game.Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-72584860736047866672007-10-17T11:27:00.000-05:002007-10-17T11:27:00.000-05:00Velvet, That is one awfully sweet letter.

Thanks bunches, Mom! SO happy to have all of your readers think I'm a perv!<BR/><BR/>And by the way, that whole thing was ENTIRELY the brainstorm of Kelli and that weird kid Andy.
