Why Didn't I Feel That Bad ???

That's because when we were kids we had to walk 15 miles in the snow, barefoot on broken glass with out brothers on our backs, uphill in BOTH directions with mad dogs at every corner just to watch a game on TV..and all the TVs had really crappy rooftop antennas..   

That doesn't even mention how Ma Bell would send three big guys to your house to break your kneecaps if you messed with one of their telephones bolted to the kitchen wall...and our mom's had no qualms about turning us in for it..
