I despised Scrappy Doo!

I was baffled when Saturday morning cartoons went away.

I had a huge crush on Rick Springfield.

I owned leg warmers.

I was a master on the Atari. Pacman anyone?

Punishment meant not being to go outside to play.

I remember when MTV was still good. I also remember Friday Night Videos and Video Jukebox on HBO, we couldn't get enough of music videos. It's a shame what they call a music video nowadays.

I forgot about the Friday night videos! I remember going to the school dance and then coming home and watching friday night videos...what a rockin night!

Thanks for reminding me!

Okay, You remember Stacey Q...but do you remember when she guest starred on the Facts of Life?

I know this is more of a late 80's early 90's kind of thing, but did any of you gals read Sassy magazine like I did? Very cool!

I remember that bi-level hair cut and the shoulder pads on all the clothes, with the sleeves pushed up. Playing pacman until I realized there was a pattern to follow and racking up the score. Sitting around the living room watching the brand new MTV for hours on end. Doing that jerky-bouncy dance that everyone did.
How about the first time you ever saw Tom Cruise? Was it Risky Business or Taps? Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon. The first time I saw Kurt Russell in a non-Disney movie was Escape from New York and he had grown up REAL good.
What a great decade that was. Memories are thick now....

OH GOD!!! The prom dresses!! Mine was PINK! Can you stand it.
What about leggings and long shirts, flashdance ripped sweatshirts, "Tainted Love" and "Come On Eileen". The 80's RULE!

I now have a scar on my foot which resulted from a crazy routine the girls and I were doing-lets just say somersault jump kick+ small living room+ too much enthusiasm = many many stitches!:imbar
Did any one else pin their pants, turtlenecks etc?

You HAD to pin your pants...that was the style! And turtlenecks too!
Ah, the 80's. Bartles & James wine coolers, Van Halen (with HOT David Lee Roth), video arcades (Ms Pac Man), remember Journey???
