    Oddball things your parents said to get your attention

    I have a few...


    "I will have your head in my hands and your brains to play with!"


    "Go and play on 115th Avenue!"


    "You make a better door than a window!"


    "Don't look in the mirror the devil will show up."


    "If you put your face that way and a wind blows by it will stay that way."

              Yes, old wrinkly peas don't taste good for breakfast especially with porridge.

                  Let's go to Harry's Toy Store...


                  (Harry was the cousin of David Bagdasarian, creator of "The Chipmunks"  - Alvin, Simon, and Theodore.  Harry would call my dad when some new Barbie stuff came into the store, known as "Selma's Happiest Corner")

                    Selma is my home town. It had about 5000 population when I was a kid. We lived 3 miles west of town.

                        No boxing ears or cold water for your girl Dave.

                        Cold water maybe but she's usually our alarm anyway. I've came close to giving her a SWAT on the butt. But like I said the bark still makes her jump, for now

                        I heard that one as well. Thank goodness it didn't happen because it can leave you deaf.

                        I am not sure about the glass of cold water but I am sure it is fairly close to the buckle end of the belt.

                        No Fish-o its not the end of a buckle, he would come up stairs with a big glass of cold water and dump it on us.

                        You are right, not close at all. The buckle end of the belt really hurt however, having wet pyjamas and bed would be massively uncomfortable.
