I know we would have been fast friends then too!<BR/><BR/>I remember when MTV played Thriller at the top of each hour and I would watch it about five times a day. (If TiVo had been around then, I could have learned the WHOLE dance....I just know it!)<BR/><BR/>I loved the song Big Country. In fact I still do. If I'm not mistaken, they were from Canada. I also remember the hair on the Flock of Seagulls singer.<BR/><BR/>I put my jeans in bleach and called them acid washed. (Did you really put them in acid? What kind?)<BR/><BR/>I loved the movie War Games. It is the only point that tic tac toe has every been useful. Mutually assured destruction actually worked quite well.
