I think that sometimes the overabundance of things that we love destroys the reason that we love them.

Amen, brings new meaning to the phrase, Too much of a good thing makes it bad.

I didn't see it listed, anyone remember the competing game console to Atari was Intellivision? The first Dungeons & Dragons game I ran across.

Shuttle disaster -- Sitting outside on the front porch watching it go up in the sky 🙁

Thriller -- Was awesome (And Micheal was black then too 😉 )

Sike -- know what it means but never used it

Wax on, Wax off -- great movies!

I did know so I was half way there



The rest is a blur, but I remember everything yiou have listed, plus some 🙂 (The 80's was my teen years 😉 )

Nike came out with the pumps in the late 80's. You had to use a seperate pump to inflate them. In the early 90's is when Reebok had theirs. They had the pump built into the top of the tongue. It looked like a little basketball.

I had a pair of the Reeboks around '91 or '92. 😱

At least I only paid around $50 for them instead of $120. I guess that makes me an O.G. Hot Dealer! 😀

I still have my Intellivision and two of the Dungeons and Dragons games! 🙂
