We did this too! Only we 'herded' Tarantulas! I made one mydonnaruhl said:I remember not having toy's,But plenty of trees around the barn and the old hen house to play tree tag.Going out on adventures on what we named Lost Creek,Leaping bolder to bolder all the way up and back.Hiking up Mission Hills Rd. and catching scorpions on sticks,waiting till they almost reached your hand,Then switch it around.Sometimes we'd get sidetracked. Oop's! Climbing to the top of the Pine Trees,Then sliding down the branches.Jumping from the roof to the Hay Pile,But you had to clear the barbed wire fence.Instead of running with the Bull's we played running from the Bull,Straight to the Pine Trees.Catching Pollywogs, and Salamanders,Snakes and Lizards. What I'm getting at, Is that, Instead of Imagination Station, We had to use our Imagination.Back when life was much simpler.
Pet.. But my dad made me let it go, cause it freaked the other siblings and my
Step mom out!! His name was Harry. ( how did I know it was a boy Tarantula?? Cause the males are smaller.) he would sleep under our porch.. And when we all came out, he would too. My
Brother was mad at me one day, and to get me back.. He stomped on Harry, killing him.. I just remember when my Dad spanked him for it, we could all hear him yelling, why would you kill your sister's spider??? Yeah I was the weird kid wherever I went!!0 -

The Electric Company was indeed in Canada. I loved that show! That show is how Menudo got its start, lol (good for Ricky Martin, hahaha!).
I also sometimes watched Boomerang.... after watching this video, I don't know why, lol. What, was the whole show about the most basic principles of physics?

I loved that show! I'm such a nerd...
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

They will never know what it's like to use a pay phone, or answer one.
Ever know the frustration of living in a house with one phone line and no call waiting or voicemail, hear a busy signal, or use a 26.6k dial-up modem and hope to be able to connect to the internet.The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

How about having to call a dates house and have to speak to the parents first?0

Some of those eye logo variations scared the bejesus out of me when they unexpectedly appeared when I was a kid.

Ah the good old days of collecting call cards and having actual phone conversations rather than having to communicate via a multitude of messenging apps0

So Pee Wee's Playhouse has been on Netflix instant and my kids are fascinated by it (as was I, back in the day), but god, now I understand why this show annoyed the beejezus out of my parents!!Jason P said:
