Holy crap! More cardboard ninjas just like me! Man...Saturday mornings...cartoons...a big bowl of cereal...cardboard boxes from the garage...the crappy pair of scissors ('cause if I used the good ones I'd get my ass kicked)...and about two rolls of tape!
WOW! I used to make EVERYTHING! Cardboard is responsible for my very first Rattler! And that sucker was great too! A little lop-sided and droopy in the middle, but it held together enough to fly my Cobra missions of bombing GI Joe's milk crate bases!
I'm proud to say, however, that I've never lost my imagination and I can still pretend with the best of 'em. I have 4 kids and they're all the same way...my daughter can make ANYTHING out of a shoebox. She loves The Littlest Pet Shop and she's made so many homes and play facilities...and the thing is...she prints stuff off or will hand draw the backgrounds! Man...I NEVER did that when I was a kid.
Just goes to show that there are a few kids left today who can still be happy with a few supplies and their imagination.
Great story Viper.
