:D okay....granted...sometimes boredom would fuel some of the craziest schemes imaginable! For instance; I was just remembering one hot summer afternoon, when there was "nothin' to do" and my brother came up with a GRAND idea! We took sticks and herded my uncle's cattle, about a dozen or so into the loading pens near our house....then we locked the gate behind them and sat on the fences and threw sticks at them to see what they would do. (could we have been any more stupid?)  Lo and behold, one fine longhorn steer decided that time was up for me and my brother...he kicked down the gate or a side fence, I can't remember exactly how he got out...but he headed straight for us kicking his heels up and bellowing and running at us....I outran my younger brother to the edge of the pasture and held the barbwire fence up for him.  He barely escaped being trampled to death by throwing himself under it in a skid for home base!  We were scrapped up from the barbwire, out of breath and scared silly....but do you think we would tell our mom what had happened and get a spanking?...and then have to go to the doctor's office for the dreaded tetanus shot? no way!! We survived.  It just wasn't our day! Never tried that particular stunt again...but never forgot it either! Man o man! :)

Seriously, what turned this country into a bunch of wooses (wusses?) well, you know what I mean! ::)
