Mattel has just recalled another 9 Million toys, this is in addition to the 1.5 Million fisher price toys that were recalled last month and 1.5 Million toys that were recalled earlier in the year http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/08/14/recall/index.html
makes you miss the days of tonka trucks, knives and bb guns..... we never swallowed any of those toys ..... heck, didint even try it.... and our rooms and furniture were all painted in lead based paints.....
What the :censored: is going on with our world.Bad Peanut butter,Bad Dog food,Toys are no good and the list goes on....:frusty:
Yeah, one of the owners of the Chinese company that makes the stuff hung himself over the weekend... The lead in the paint must have finally taken it's toll... Ron
bingo :biggrin1: Watch what brand of tires you are buying for you autos also...seems like China does not care about the US other than our money. They have sold Millions of unsafe tires that OUR goverment do not want us to know about because if there is a recall China will close the plant and OUR goverment will have to pay for it which will cost Billions of $$.
Good thinking. US Labor Unions, though I have nothing against them in principal, need to get updated with the times and see that they are, in part, a reason why so much manufacturing is sent overseas. And the NAFTA 'agreement' don't help either. Ron
they ARE the reason why everything is going overseas... but thats a discussion for another time and place... we can discuss my thoughts on Unions over a beer at a campfire. :biggrin1:
Yeah, I was brushing with conflict in bringing it up but you made it sound so much more direct. Thanks ! :usa: Ron
I will right now they are busy rawing the lead paint off the window seals My kids are way past toys lol but thanks
I say we buy all our kids airsoft guns and send them out to the woods to play war. THATS WHAT WE DID AND LOOK HOW WE HAVE TURNED OUT:dizzy:
That reminds me when we were kids...i was 8 and my brother was 12 we use to play war and i used a bb gun and he would hide behind our big walnut tree and throw walnuts at me .Sooner or later he would run out of walnuts though and would have to come out on his hands and knee's and restock....thats when i would open fire..:laugh: :laugh: Them bb's stung but them dang walnuts left welts.
