Must stem from my childhood bub. When my daughters were young and wanted everything I would tell them about the olden days when I was their age and how tough things were. I would lay it on thick and say that all we had was a stick to play with, just one stick
and I had to share it with my three brothers lol ;)
Of course now I have many sticks and strings too,

That's funny Bub! You know ever since I started knappin whenever someone in my family asks me what I want for Christmas or my birthday I always reply "a box of rocks" For some reason I usually get a funny look ::) some folks just dont get it  :laugh:

My wife was laughing at me when I opened a present with a bow drill in it and I was super excited.

Heh, after listening to my father-in-law say "you kids now days have to much stuff, when I was young all I got was a bag of broken glass to jingle", that's one of the presents he opened this year - a bag of broken glass in a box :)

Nor will you find so many people that would get depressed when they didn't get a stick or box of rocks  ;D

Or the skin of a dead animal :)

I was standing in the kitchen looking at the VM bow I made for the gift exchange, and I hear from a distance.
"I remember when you used to look at me that way..."

I laughed, and gave her a huge hug....my woman.... Not the bow lol.
