    oooo...you are young.

    If I remember correctly they are superhero undies.

    1) getting my first black eye. 1978-1979 ish
    2) abba kicked ass back in the day.
    3) stretch arm strong and the green monster thingy dolls
    i remember cutting open those stretch thingys to see how they worked.
    they were filled with a purple gel that was very sweet tasting.
