Do you remember when the media didnt have a field day over everything.
Yes, I think so... Wasn't that before the rise of Ted Turner and the 24-hour news network? Oy. A slow news day at one of those places must me absolute unmitigated h*** for the folks that work there. 'Cause I know I can't stand to watch it on a slow news day!

Do you remember the first "video games" that came out? I remember something like a ping-pong game. It hooked up to the TV. There was a little white "ball" that bounced back and forth on a black & white screen. The paddles were white lines on either end of the screen that one could move up or down depending on where the ball was going. Anne

When MTV really was Music Television? When you could sit and watch music videos 24/7?
Johnny Lightning toy cars? Of course, the cool kids had Hot Wheels.
I remember comming home from school and watching MTV on a daily basis. Would watch it until MTV Raps (or whatever the title was) came on; then, off really quick.
Remember Yahoo Serious?
And I had quite a collection of Hot Wheels. Too bad so many of them got washed away in the flood in 1990 I've probably still got some of them around somewhere in the attic though. Maybe.
And for TV shows anyone remember "Lancelot Link and Marta Hairi"

I never had the chance to see that when we were kids, but my hubby introduced me to it a few years ago. (He had watched it religiously when he was growing up, and loved it.) It was running every weekend on a local station for a while. What a HOOT!!!!
