[Ping898]

remember when computer screens only appeared with a black background and green text?

 

[Kreth]

Do you remember the tune played through the speakers of the "Mr. Softee" truck?

Dude, I grew up in a small town. The closest thing we had was a homeless guy that handed out ice cubes... :uhyeah:

 

[Souchunya]

Yep!

Remember when it was safe to play hide and seek in the neighbor's yards?

No not really, if they didnt know we were playin it there, n if they didnt have a gun n a killer temper, then yea i guess i do remember.

Remember when you got embarassed in front of your crush?

He had a shopping cart with an ice maker and a generator?

[crushing]

Terry

Yeah, before the streetlights came on. I knew my parents car horn too. If I heard that, I better already be on my way home independent of when the streetlights were coming on.

remember when it didn't matter how cold it was outside, you had to walk to school?

 

[Bigshadow]

Remember when we had to actually go outside and play games, instead of sitting inside playing video games?

I know... I know... Swordlady beat me to it!

 

[Bigshadow]

Remember when 10 speed racing bikes came out, and the handlebars looked so odd?

Dang, I had one of those.

 

[Kacey]

So did I - that's why I remember it so well!

Remember when your parents could let you roam the neighborhood? And, in fact, encouraged it?

 

[Martial Tucker]

I had one in high school. But before that......remember trying to "pop a wheelie" on your Sting-Ray?

 

[Bigshadow]

Remember the banana seat Western Flyer bicycles?

The wind up Evil Kenevel motorcycle? Boy that thing would go.

 

[Shodan]

Yep- my brother and I both had the banana seat bikes......with streamers off the handle bars.

Remember the Hulk doll with the stretchy arms? My bro. had that- but I liked to pull the arms!!

Remember when Tossing the football around actually meant going outside and tossing the football around, and not shoving the latest Madden CD on your XBOX.

BTW anybody remember Light Brite, that was such a cool toy.

 

[Carol]

BTW anybody remember Light Brite, that was such a cool toy.

ohhhhh I loved Light Brite!

I remember when getting in "deep deep trouble" meant I went down to the creek without telling my parents.

Yes, those telephone booths with folding doors (they don't seem as popular any more)!

Remember the game of trying to stuff as many (human) bodies in one of those booths?

 

[MA-Caver]

Yes, those telephone booths with folding doors (they don't seem as popular any more)!

Folding doors... Yes
Stuffing bodies ... no ( I was around but don't remember it as I was a widdle kid)


Remember when getting a Black Belt was considered the same as a (college) degree or equivalent?

 

[Martial Tucker]

I've never been one for after-shave stuff, but remember when

"Hai Karate!" after-shave came out?
