Saephyr Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Everything from Granimals clothing to Cloves gum! What were some of things you remember as a kid that really should have never gone out of style. The innopcent gags, rollerrink tunes, hand games when we were little like Ms. Susie, Hula-Hoops, Rock Em Sockems, Prank Calls, fence hopping, Streaking and so many things that were harmles but gave us so much character and strength amougst our peers. What kind of magic do you recall from the 60's, 70's or even 60's that we need to remember forever?
Saephyr Posted October 6, 2006 Author Posted October 6, 2006 Oh man... I just remembered a few things ... Faygo... Federals Department Store... Whistle Stop Pop.. Chocolate Gum?... Patten Leather Shoes... White Courd pants... Barry Manilow... Sean Cassidy... Bee Gees... Mr. Rogers, Sesame Street and naturally Mr Dress Up... Electric Company!... Baton Twirling... WOW I don't think anyone forgets Rock Em' Sock Em ' Robots... Why do I feel so old?!
Der Nister Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Barry Manilow...Sean Cassidy... Bee Gees... You're joking about these right? I have to add this to the list -- the old style video arcades were der bomb! Where else could you skip classes and have fun while blowing your lunch money?
BrassFusion Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 We didn't have cable for most of my childhood, but when we went on vacation, or we were lucky enough to find videos available to rent, my sister and i would watch hbo's "brain games." =) I think one of the things I miss most is how one could have an adventure out of slopping through a ditch like you're some sort of trailblazer. And Girl Scout camping trips. Those were so fun while they lasted.
