Blast from the past! Remember when..

I remember when television only has 3 channels and didn't start till 5 p.m.!

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*.

I remember when MTV actually played music.

omg yes! wtf now ! i gotta watch until like 7 or 8 am for music videos then the rest of the day is ****

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.

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.

I remember MTV coming on the air.

When most TVs were black and white.

When Star Trek first aired.

That Michelle and Help Me, Rhonda came out in the first year.

Party lines.

When doors were left unlocked and you could count on the neighbours keeping you to the same rules your parents did, and telling them when you 'acted up'

Record players that played 45, 33 1/3 and 78

my car still only has a tape player.

atari
bata tapes
dancing in my kitchen next to a black and white tv and listening to a record player
computers getting installed in schools/ typing classes
beanie babies
rugrats- i miss rugrats
easy bake ovens and shrinky dinks
when my birthday (september 11th) didnt mean watching a remembrance movie in school that made me cry
sitting next to my mom in the smoking sections of restaurants...
mr. rodgers was my hero
and when there wasn't 10 pregnant highschoolers in your grade lol
nintendo and the release of pokemon cards and games
when you didnt have to worry about someone breaking into your car at least *twice* per year.

I remember when gas was 68 cents

The lowest I remember gas is .89. Also...when we as a family gathered around the tv on Sunday nights to watch "The Wonderful World of Disney"

The old Star Trek was not re-runs.
