Jules -- that was only one of many indelible memories. And one of the tamer ones at that! Oh, and that Rambo thing? I did it first, long before Rambo was ever conceived. Bill -- you do seem to enjoy my more bloody adventures! Holly -- my childhood was full of them! Shelly — I grew up in the best neighborhood ever!

Jules — that was only one of many indelible memories. And one of the tamer ones at that! Oh, and that Rambo thing? I did it first, long before Rambo was ever conceived.

Bill — you do seem to enjoy my more bloody adventures!

Holly — my childhood was full of them!

I had a good chuckle, thanks. I can see you lying on the ground with Thor hovering over you. He was probably wondering what this gift from Heaven (as you said) was. I don't know how I missed this on your "Grown-Up's blog. Hope OC is doing better. This story is right up there with you bicycle story. I had a good chuckle, thanks.

He and his brothers would always find ways of entertaining on their farm.....like imitating Rambo for example. If Rambo could let the boughs of a tree catch him and go gently to the ground then so could they. Yeah they really did and several times. They couldn't understand why their mom stood on the ground screaming as they climbed to the top of a big pine and then threw their heads back to ride the branches down on their backs.

What a story! That is too fantastic to have been a pretend story. I bet that day has been firmly etched into my mind for all eternity. I am in shock! What a story!

I don't remember why or how I fell, I just remember the feeling that I was going to die if I couldn't start breathing soon - very soon. I know it wasn't a flight out of a tree, however. This is a great story, and I'm glad you survived to tell it. :D I remember falling very hard flat out on my belly when I was a kid.

Dr. John -- the lessons I learned should have been obvious! I learned that trees a very unpredictable, and that gravity huts. And, come to think of it, I did learn that Thor wasn't near as mean as his bark lead me to believe. Cath -- I guess you could say I had it pounded into me! SN -- because I fell out of one? Wow! ;) Polona — OC wonders, too.

You aren't dead till the Doctor says your dead? Some dogs aren't as bad as they seem.? Hold tighter to the tree? Stay with your friends no matter what? But what was the lesson learned?
