Warning: I'm in Old Fart Mode

What's wrong with an old-fashioned playground for cripes sake? This piece just cracks me up - maybe it should make me cry:

Broward playgrounds aren't the only ones to avoid equipment that most adults remember. Swings, merry-go-rounds, teeter-totters and other old standards are vanishing from schools and parks around the country, according to the National Program for Playground Safety.
"Kids aren't using them the way they're supposed to," said the agency's director, Donna Thompson, who led a national effort to get rid of animal swings two years ago. "I'm pleased that a lot of these are disappearing."

It's only appropriate that this article coincides with an invitation for my 25th high school reunion.
