How about the rubix cube? I think I spent three years trying to solve that thing never got it.Matchbox cars the doors opend and everything, Free with a fillup at Shell gas stations I would beg my dad to go there. When gas pumps didn't go past 99 cents and you had to pay twice what the pump said.

Since Nobody has posted here in over a month, HERE GOES!!!

I remember the Challenger disaster.....I was Student Teaching in Hudson NH with 40 4th graders who were supposed to do Science experiements with Christa McCaulliffe on TV.

I remember our first color tv......and watching Captain Kangaroo in Black and White.....b4 then, I couldn't figure out why the Captain had a friend tthat he called "Mr. Greenjeans!!!"

While reading all otf the other posts, they are similar to the things I remember as I got older.....

Am I dating myself yet????

]AN EXCERPT FROM A POEM THAT I WROTE ON 10/11/07

WE CAN'T CHANGE WHAT WE HAVE DONE....
BUT ONLY TAKE A LESSON FROM EACH EXPERIENCE
AND MAKE THE MOST OF EACH MINUTE THAT WE HAVE LEFT
AND TELL OURELVES THAT IT IS OK TO LIVE, LAUGH AND CRY.....
PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE ALL WORK TOGETHER
TO GIVE US WHAT WE CAN AND SHOULD EXPERIENCE
AND WE NEED TO CHERISH ALL OF THE TIME
THAT WE SPEND WITH OURSELVES AND OTHERS MAKING THE MOST OF THE SPECIAL MEMORIES THAT ARE OURS..
AND THE ONES THAT WE HAVE YET TO CREATE WITH THE PEOPLE THAT WE HAVEN'T MET!!!!![/SIZE]

I had 20-30 matchbox cars back in the 60s. In the 70s I got several cars of Yesteryear. I still have those and in mint condintion. I even have the boxes they came in, but the boxes are not in mint condition. Have you ever seen the price of those old cars? Often well out of my budget!!

remember when the challenger blow up?


I remember that day well. I was an assistant manager of a McDonald's then, and could not leave. I called home to my wife, who had yet to leave for work and asked her to put a tape in the VCR and let it run. I called friends and had a bummer of a day. I had seen Challenger land several times at Edwards AFB.

I remember the Gemini missions, the Apollo missions, but don't remember the Apollo one mission fire when it happened. (I think my parents hid that from me.) I read about it later in the 70s when I really was into the space program. I remember watching the first moonwalk on the 20th of July in 1969.

I remember when National Geographic came out with the plastic record about the space program, I played it often. (And I think I still have it in a box somewhere).

Do you remember The Howdy Doody show?
Do you remember when $2 would give about 1/2 -2/3 of a tank?
How about having to have help carrying in $20 worth of groceries?

Do you remember the commercial "It's now 10 PM do you know where your children are?"
Now that was a good Public service that went away.

I remember sitting in class when columbine happened and being sent home early. I remember going home and watching other high school kids running from the school on the news.

I remember playing with transformers and ninja turtles. I remember watching Thundercats and Heman.

I remember eating oatmeal cookies at my grandparents house.

I remember my first day of college.

I remember watching surfers off a cliff in New Zealand while drinking wine.

I remember the dad milking the cows.The milk went in Milk cans and not the bulk tanks like they have now.
Then mom would get the cream off the milk and make old fashion cream pies. Those were the best pies. thumbs_up.gif biggrin.gif chef.gif drool.gif To have a pie like that would be heaven.

I remember....

my german shepard named "Brandy" watching me in my play pen...probably my first memory ever...

my first bike a yellow Huffy with the big banana seat and grippy handle bars....

watching the Sonny and Cher variety show, Donny and Marie Variety show, The Gong Show, The Muppet Show (which I'm now collecting on DVD slowly but surely) The Greatest American Hero....A-Team, Quantum Leap.....ahhhh real TV!

I remember when Strawberry Shortcake was big the first time around, along with the Cabbage Patch dolls but didn't care much for them...much rather drool over my posters of Andy Gibb and Shawn Cassidy (wonder if I still have those some where)....

And I remember when the challenger blew up...I was in Junior High and everyone was weeping and just entranced infront of the TV and I really couldn't understand really what was going on. Ya so the challenger blew up...I pretty much expected it to for some reason and I don't know why....guess I was always the skeptic or something....
