    I loved and still do, Patrick. I met him and his wife (now widow) Lisa because I was taking classes with his mother Patsy. He was cool and just plain gorgeous.

    This was my first video game ever:

    th?id=HN.608042677757150881&pid=15.1

    th?id=HN.608025270239824472&pid=15.1

    And of course our home computer, the TRS80. We were the only ones in the neighborhood that had one:

    I loved and still do, Patrick. I met him and his wife (now widow) Lisa because I was taking classes with his mother Patsy. He was cool and just plain gorgeous.

    My link to Patrick Swayze was working on his auto insurance policy. He was high risk and had to have one out of PA.

    No other generation got to "grow up" with video games evolving with you like people born from like the late 70's-early 80's.

    My favorite game though was a hide and seek game... it was all kinds of glitchy where you could hide in the floor and in the walls...

    Yeah, we saw this one a lot... particularly MTV... but what my parents didn't realize is they could program channels out of the TV, but not the VCR... ;)

    i LOVED breakout on the Atari.

    and i remember sitting at the radio ALL day during the top 40 countdown so that i could press record to tape my fave song. that was back when mixed tapes (that's what we called them before "playlist" was a thing) took DEDICATION.

    and when the internet first existed and you couldn't get ANYONE on the phone because they were waiting on the dialup to FINALLY connect - you couldn't really get online at 3 or 7

    The 80's, the last of the good rock-n-roll, cars that you could work on, being able to do things without worrying about getting grabbed or killed, you could fight at school and be friends the next day, street racing, parachute pants, button fly jeans, long hair was cool on guys and girls were hot with the poofs. And do not forget we all lived like kings on minimum wage ($3.35 an hour). Oh how I miss those days.:glasses:

    LOL... Well, played.

    "Electric Blue" was one that I remember best. Somehow we could hear the sound... kind of.

    I'm an early 90's child but we still had some remnants of the 80's when I was growing up. :)
