[QUOTE="2400, post: 201035, member: 3254"] I remember talking with my Grandpa (1888) and hearing about how he and 2 friends ran away from home at 13 (in Kansas) and going to Colorado to go "cowboy". They fought Indians 4 times on the trip and Grandpa had an arrow head and part of a shaft in his chest until his late 70's, he also fought a bear and wound up killing it with his knife, he had some really bad scars and bite marks. I think about the pussys of today that at 13 can't get off their asses to fix a sandwich. He had some old friends I talked with but mostly sat in the corner and just listened to them. Like Grandpa some had fought Indians, a couple of them had been in the Spanish American War and talked about it a little, some had ben in WWI, a lot of WWII and Korea Vets were around at that time. I was fortunate to have been around at that time and hear and remember some of the stories they told, now there are some "kids" asking me to tell some of my own. [/QUOTE]
