    Do you remember dropping your lunch box on the school yard or coat room and knowing before checking that your thermos' inner bottle was broke? Those things were super thin. It seemed like the only time that I dropped them was when Mom put something good like orange Hi-C in them.

    I used to have a Ringling Brothers lunch box like this one:

    Yeah I knew it because you could hear it. The rattling of broken glass. LOL! I posted a pic of my 4th Grade lunch box on here a while back. I had a red thermos with a black cap/top.

    I was a brown bagger, but I did have a Hopalong Cassidy lunch box [[we called 'em lunch pails). My little brother was young enough to have a Davy Crockett lunch box. He had the coonskin cap and rifle, too. I had the Red Ryder BB gun. It didn't help at all when a bull moose came into our backyard from the creek.

    Robb, we called them lunch pails too or rather my parents did. My brother Danny had 2 BB guns, but we never had mooses in our backyard just a Buckeye tree and a cherry tree. LOL!

    Ok, let me set up a scene. It is somewhere in the sixties, somewhere in America [[or maybe Canada too) and you're a kid on the street playing with your friends, What game are you guys playing when you hear one kid recite this:

    "Last night, night before. Twenty-four robbers at my door....."
