In my day, it was for the rich kids. Those uniforms etc. cost a lot of money. My brother got to be a Boy Scout but what about the Girl Scouts?

Answer: Uniform is too expensive and you are a girl so forget it! That is what I was told.

The right winger across the street has a son in it and so does this other idiot winger across the way. Whatever they teach, one thing lacking is respect for others I've noted over the years.

Boy Scouts ...

Reserved for males only as the Girl Scouts sell their cookies.
