I pissed off my mother breaking all my crayons to make cards...
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.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".

I remember pink lemonade being like this when I was a kid so you would have survived When you come over for the fall tour you should stock up on it and ship a huge supply back to Greece

I tried so hard to open mine...I wanted to know what was inside...
They had an exhibit about these in our children's museum last year and they showed the inside of one, it was pretty cool! It looks like this:
that's cool...I know I read in a book wow they were made...but seeing it is so much different!
i have a goal of trying to draw an awesome pic like those people draw:

I used to drink gallons of that stuff when I was a kid. I miss it!
Also, long before the days of Wii and DDR, my friend who lived across the street had a Nintendo Power Pad, and I'd go to his house to play this game with him:
Yay, it is back up again. I wanted to get into this thread so bad. These post bring back a lot of memories for me. I still have my metal fridge and stove up in my attic. However, mine is more of an 80's model. I also wanted to post these:
I'm not OCD, but how disgusting was it, in a way, that we used public pay phones? Phone booths were kinda cool but when you think about it, pretty dirty.
Lol! They still actually exist! For people without their cell (because they forgot it or lost it, of course). But now they cost 50¢. :evil:
When I was a kid me and my sister would ride in the hatchback all the time, waving at and mooning other drivers when our folks weren't looking, and no cared (maybe the mooning part is a bit weird, lol). And then our parents would leave us waiting in the car for huge lengths of time because we didn't feel like doing whatever they were doing... at night... and no one batted an eye. Now peolle are known to call the cops if they see a mom leaving their kid in the car while they walk 20 feet to mail a letter! Aaahhhhhh, the 80s. And don't forget Gatorade gum and Super Socco drink boxes!
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata
When I was a kid we celebrated Guy Fawkes night by going down the park with everyone else in the neighbourhood to light a great big bonfire and let off crackers! Never forget what FUN it was!!! Now, of course, crackers and fireworks are illegal and the bonfires, non-existent.
These were my favorite toys back in the mid 80's. They were like a knockoff of Transformers but they were awesome to me. Also had a cartoon on TV similar to Transformers.
All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
I still have mine...Mr. RK refuses to play with me...he thinks it's silly :(
