Jacks

[Lenny]

How about this game? You bounce the little rubber ball and while the ball is in the air you see how many jacks you can pick up before the balls bounces.

I hate breaking this news to you but jacks was a girls' game.

[Lenny]

Oh C'Mon............I played it all the time. If it was a girls game why did they call it a boys name. JACK! And don't tell me it was short for Jacqualine! I was a champ at it! I was also good at Hopscotch!

Also that game

"A" my name is Alice......whatever they called that one.

LOL, did you jump Double Dutch too???

[Lenny]

You bet I jumped double dutch...........anyone who can swing on a vine can jump double dutch. They don't call me Tarzan for nothing!

Lenny,

I played with cap guns...cowboys and Indians...pee shooters with the white beans...rubberband shooters with paper clips...but, I never played Jacks, unless it was in the house on the linoleum floor.

[Lenny]

I got along and interacted with everyone. Male and female alike. I played with whomever wanted to play with me. I remember cowboys and indians and army soldier at Crotona Park along Tremont Avenue. Along the wall and we hid in the bushes shooting at each other. Also at Echo Park.
