      Uh... those were crap (and I could never do them).

      Talking of Acorns, when I was at school every class had it's own BBC Micro and we had a mighty Acorn Archimedes in the hallway. Anyone remember them?

      I remember well the days of VHS and music cassettes. Atari, not so much, but I remember my old Tandy computer that ran Windows 3.1 and had Commander Keen. And I still hear that 56K modem every time I connect to the internet.

      Remember when...

      Cokes came in glass bottles?

      You could take a pocketknife to school?

      Kids played marbles in the dirt, without any fancy Leapfrog or iPod?

      The Cosby Show was good TV?

      Renting a movie on Saturday night meant an old western, like The Outlaw Josey Wales?

      They played good music on the radio?

      Johnny Cash was The Man In Black?

      Beanie babies!

      Tom and Jerry and Bugs Bunny and Road Runner...

      Really annoying girls screaming about the Backstreet boys.

      My very small apple computer which played this really nice tune at startup. Looked like a box.

      I remember the sound of 1.2K modems and 45 RPM records... when color TV was a novelty and my dad grumbling when gasoline went up from .23 to .24 cents per gallon on weekends.

      Heh.

      I remember when the Atari first came out. My brother and I went to the Sears to play one in the store. Later he bought one. Tanks rocked!

      When this song lyric made sense:



      I love rock 'n' roll
      So put another dime
      In the jukebox, baby


      I play broccoli with checkers every night.

      We had Pong. On a black and white TV. And eight-tracks. They sucked because the song would quit in the middle to pick up on anther track.

      The first one's a star-thing and the second one is some weird egg-shaped thing, I can't tell

      I loved those things - I can do them really easily... I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing though...

      Hmm, I think I know what you mean...



      "French-rolling" your pants at the bottom so they were super-tapered leg Also paracute pants, and stonewashed jeans with zippers up the leg.

      Feathered hair or crimped hair. With big bows.

      Friendship bracelets you braided with cross-stitch "floss"

      British Knights shoes and Jordache jeans.

      Actually, it's a life goal to completely forget them

      How about the Commidore 64.... As a five year-old, that thing was awesome! You even had to know some basic DOS commands in order to use it

      5.25" floppy disk drives! And yet the system is still available on Fleabay.
      To think how amazed people were at the quality those games in its day!

      How about shows like:

It started twitching. we were laughing so hard! it wouldnt stop twitching its eyes and beak so we stuffed it under some blankets under his bed. 3 days later, still twitching

      Felicity was great until those points yeah. I think the whole time traveling thing at the end was a veeeerryyy desperate attempt on the writers' part to save the show. Ouch.
