I created this thread to discuss things that time has forgotten and perhaps to show the young ones what they have missed.  Do you remember when:

- Blockbuster Video was all the rage
- Saturday morning cartoons didn't suck
- After school cartoons didn't suck
- Where's the beef?
- New Coke and Crystal Pepsi debacle
- Max Headroom

Feeling nostalgic eh?

Listening to Tom Petty's album Full Moon Fever makes me think of my childhood. It was a smash hit in 1989 and it played constantly in the Gray house.

Yup, figured I could get some discussion going.  Remember when Michael Jackson's hair caught on fire for the Pepsi commercial?

Only a contest sadly.  Honestly, I know I had it but I don't recall the taste.

I remember this tasted like Blue Kool-Aid, but was somehow sweeter:

Remember the Snorks on Saturday mornings?  Man, we had it good back than.  Nowadays cartoons suck on Saturday Mornings.
