I remember when cigarette commercials aired on TV. I remember when smoking was allowed on commercial airlines. I remember when school chalkboards transitioned to whiteboards. I remember when it was trendy for girls to gather their t-shirt and tie a knot at the bottom. I remember when crimped bangs were really cool. I remember when credit cards were carbon-copied.

I'm 18 and I can still remember having smoking and non-smoking sections in restaurants. I also remember the days before DVR or TiVo, when you had to actually tape things on Tv. I also remember when DVDs became really popular.

I remember I Spy and New Zoo Revue. When Shaggy and Scooby never palled around with Scrappy. I remember leaving the house just after Saturday morning cartoons and not coming home until you could see the light of fireflies.

The day we brought home the Atari and how kick butt Space Invaders was to play.
I was the the t.v. remote as well as the dish washer and on the weekends I also played lawn mowing service.

Awww the memories of the box fan as air conditioning, blessed was the day we go a ceiling fan...

I remember during the week it was homework before anything and if failed at school it was my fault and not the teachers.

I remember if I misbehaved the only time out I got was the time it took the belt to reconnect with my *kitten*.

when did gathering tshirts and wearing crimped bangs out of style, I wore mine like this last week!!! lol

just kidding.....

I do remember when smoking was allowed in shopping malls though, I actually remember when cell phones came out, and 8 tracks. I owned an atari machine and thought it was the best technology ever, I remember tv's that didn't have remote controls and I also remember when all phones had cords.
