Pong! I had the system that I connected to the TV, with knobs on it (remember those?). How awesome the Atari 2600 was for us, when it first dropped. (That is, before Coleco vision--LOL!)

Those shirts! LOL! Frankie Says.......! I remember the decals you could put on your t shirts, for a few bucks.

I remember the "just say no" campaign. Challenger, it was cool to tie a corner of your t-shirt in a knot... I'll think of more...

This is your brain............This is your brain on drugs! The egg cooking on the grill.

I'll say that we had the best staurday morning cartoons. They were on everywhere just before Wrestling, Creature double feature (eventually just creature feature), and Kung Fu Theater. I've been up on Saturdays now, and check things out. Not many cartoons anymore---How Dull! What is on is computer imaging... Blaaah!

.....and me and 2 friends would "fight" over which NKOTB we were going to marry! Sad- I know, I'll admit it...

NOOO! NOT the New KIds! :rofl: I admire your courage for admitting it though!

That was my favorite show in jr. high. When I moved to California a few years ago, Dwight Schultz, the guy who played "Howlin' Mad Murdock, went to my church. Here I am a 36 year old guy acting like a 13 year old kid. He's a genuinely nice guy & is a heck of a lot smarter than he ever let on on THAT show!

He was real smart! Look at how he escaped and all the roles he played, to get the job done. Brilliant!

OMG yeah back in the days when I could write a program. And back before F-Disk when I could type in catalog and it would list all programs or home. Line 10 go to line 47 if line 47 reads this then add this. LOL and I thought I was the chit when I had two disk drives. LOL .

I went to high school with the drummer of Vanilla Ice I don’t know if I should even admit that one.

It's O.K. At least he played the drums. Remember Milli Vanilli? Now that was.........embarrassing!
