damn, i loved new kids (yes i admit it), i was in 3rd grade when the challenger blew up, i played pong, space invaders, pac man, AND cetapied (sp?) but that was the extent of my video games on atari, i played with shinky dinks, had freezy freakies, my little ponies, light brite, and my remote was attached by a cord to my VCR that we rented from the video place! i used run around saying i want my MTV cause it was cool. i even have a pic of me n my friend (whom i am still friends with) sitting in the movie theater at 5 watching ET. now my neice who is 4 saw ET in the theaters!! I FEEL OLD too. ::le sob::

: What is sad is that I as too old to have liked the new kids....I work with a few college students at my job, god I am old, some of these kids don't remember/weren't alive when Tv's didn't have remotes, when MTV was new, did see ET in the theater, think Spinal Tap is an old metal band like Sabbath, have never actually "dialed" a phone, only touch tone for them. These kids were babies when the challenger blew up..oh my..time for my rocking chair....
