    Most parents made us all go outside and play untill the street lights came on. Nofriendo was only used on rainy days (and the power pad sensors were so lame that you really DID get your exercise in).

    I LOVE Molly Ringwald, still have random Molly Marathons... But I was born in 91, so I guess I can't really weigh in here :(

    I'm guessing for me the 80s were a glorious seven months of sleeping, pooing, and drinking formula milk. Now, I love lots of amazing 80s music. So all-in-all pretty cool.

    However it was the late 90s and early 00s when I discovered all this awesome 80s music so they were pretty cool times too....

    I loved the 80s because my children were all born in the 80s and we were so active with camping and hiking, I was skinny, healthy and had soooo much energy. It's sad growing old. :sad:

    LOVED THE 80'S!!!! When I hear music, well even watching movies, it creates a movie of memories in my mind of such great times as a teenager! As Eric Church says........funny how a melody sounds like a memory! :)
