[puffpattiduke]

Remember when "sampling" used to be called "plaigerism" ???

"La -- La La La -- La La La La La"

What, I'm just "sampling" !! ha ha :D

[macca]

Remember Milk At School Costing 7 Cents

Remember the chocolate milk costing extra?(then everybody started bringing pill bottles of chocolate powder...... :D )

[EVHFV]

you are so right about the marathon bars!



I was at a friends' house this week, and he had the food network on (he's a chef, and it didn't hurt that Rachael Ray was on either!!!). Then this show comes on about how certain candy bars are made. Then they start talking about candy bars they used to make years ago. Seems there are people that not only remember the Marathon bar (among others), but are trying to get the candy companies to start making them again. Seemed the biggest push right now is for the Marathon bar. Maybe we'll be seeing it again sometime!!!

[EVHFV]

Remember On Saturday School House Rock

They were released years ago on VHS. I loved them as a kid and wanted them, but they came out on 4 different tapes, one for each category (Math Rock, Science Rock, History Rock, and Grammar Rock). I couldn't see paying a total of $60.00 for that. Waited out for eBay, but then a couple years ago, they released it all on one DVD. Bought that quick for $20.00!!!

[OU812]

remember the jokes on the sides of the dixie cups

[puffpattiduke]

YES!!! They were called "Dixie Riddles" or something like that!
Remember George "The Animal" Steele ???

[EVHFV]

[SHOELUVRSIS]

(re: the man in the yellow hat)

If my memory serves me correctly, they never identified him with a name - only "the man with the yellow hat"

[macca]

You get a gold star :D

[shoeluvr]

what was his name
they never named him just the man in the yellow hat!

[macca]

Remember when life was THAT simple??

[OU812]

remember tab the cola

[rnnurse89]

remember the original donkey kong? burgertime? pitfall? the graffics were horrible, but just the idea of the game was awesome!! :o

[zebralover4ever]

remember when kids' toys were simple? I was in the toy section at Target yesterday & I can't believe the gadgets they have out. Portable dvd players, cell phones for kids so you can text your friends & send pics, digital camcorders, gameboys, playstations, etc. I said to my girls that I was happy to have a jumprope when I was their age. There were other mothers in the aisle and we all agreed - barbies, bicycles, coloring books kept us entertained.

[macca]

And yet....."I have nothing to play with". Uh-huh...a HOUSE full of nothing!

[mark]

And to think my favorite toys were Battling Tops and little plastic 2 inch high GI Joe soldiers.

Rock em Sock em robots were the cutting edge of toy technology. There heads could pop off and you caould put them back on.

I'd like to see a kid settle for a wishnik today as a gift? They'll look at it, then you as if to say, "What the heck is wrong with you?". Beatniks, trolls, whatever you use to call them). We called em wishniks.

[pale rider]

woops - I just realized how that sounds!

[pale rider]

I never heard of Hugo!!! Mr Machine was a little wind up mechanical man that would move around the room when he was wound up. He was made of clear plastic so you could watch all the gears turning.

[puffpattiduke]

I do remember something like that - I think my brother may have had one!

[love2sing]

Why am I not surprised?

[78 zebra man]

Catholic school was the bomb.....

[love2sing]

I am thankful that my parents did not make me do that. They actually gave me a choice. When they explained what Catholic school was, I immediately chose public school. I had many a friend in my neighborhood who did go to Catholic school and they turned out to be the worst behaved kids you could ever want to see.

[OU812]

yes and remember standing on line all nigtt for tickets, that was the best, the biggest fan got the best seats, it sux now online. in 5 minutes everything is gone!!!!

[macca]

Yep. Ticketbastard/scalper wants "everybody to have a fair chance to get the best seats". Obviously, that was before the scalpers and ticket brokers took over and the buying public was left the scraps once the tix went on sale.....

Last time Clapton played here, the first 30 rows were GONE before tickets went on sale at 10. And there was NO pre-sale BS. Makes you wonder huh??

[shoeluvr]

you would be appalled if I told you what I paid for Paul McCartney tickets for Gregs b day! But I had to do it. they seats were really good, and he's a big fan, like you.

[love2sing]

Well, I just started working a 2nd job at a local liquor store on Sundays - and my boss there has the "IO" digital cable, where you can see vh1 classics, and the game show network - so, naturally, I'm enthralled with watching the old game shows, like "matchgame" w/ Gene Rayburn, Charles Nelson Riley, Richard Dawson, Brett Sommers, etc. - and it's so funny to see the styles and people from the '70's!!!!!!!!! Charles Nelson Riley sits there and smokes a pipe right on the set!!!! Its also remarkable that most of those people that were on that show are not even around (alive) anymore!!! They had "Bobby Van" on yesterday, I totally forgot about that guy! What a trip down memory lane, I'm here to tell you!!!!!!!! :)

[puffpattiduke]

I don't remember them costing 5 cents, but I do remember them costing a dime, and then being all up in arms when they changed to 25 cents!!! And theres still a pay phone by the 7/11 where I live that works, but it's now 50 cents!!!

[GreggFromJoisey]

I remember pay phones at 10 cents and gas at 39 cents a gallon :(

[puffpattiduke]

when I first started smoking, cigarettes were .75 cents a pack - now what are they, almost $5.00/per!!!! Glad I quit over 10 years ago!!!

[OU812]

I remember when you could go to a record store not best buy

[macca]

Good record stores that had imports along with domestic vinyl. Remember when radio stations were NOT restricted and the DJ's had their way with a playlist? 5 cent phone calls, walking down your street was SAFE(and walking home for that matter!)!

There were milk machines and pot office mail boxes on the street corners.

Not sure this was mentioned on here yet, but this made me think of it. My oldest brother had one in like '80 or '81. Remember the camcorders that were only a camera, and you had to record onto the actualy VCR, and lug it around with you on a battery pack????

[Wakddood]

I remember when Ford trucks were actually built Ford tough. Now they are living up to Ford's Fix or repair daily reputation.
