Christmas is fast approaching and as my public service to all of you fine folks out there, here is a link to The 10 most dangerous play things of all time

Everyone could probably guess #1 on the list, yep, Lawn Darts! Who hasn't read about some kid in the E.R. with 6" of cold steel embedded in their skull?

But the one that shocked me was #2...

    The one that shocked me was the Skydancers! My kids played with those, then we passed them down to the cousins - who still play with them!!

We headed down a street I had never been on and found ourselves driving by a little strip mall. Then Kathy says "Turn in here a minute." Now my spidey senses are on alert, and sure enough, we wind up parking in front of a pet store. Kathy had been out in Golden a couple of days before and had found Hootie sitting in a cage looking so lonely. When we walked in, there was a sad little puppy up high in his own cage, with a sign that had 2 different prices crossed out and the third was pretty low. He had been taken and then returned to the pet store. I knew right then that we were heading home with another dog, I had been suckered!
