To think a whole generation of kids that won't wake up at 3.00am scrreaming and terrified by nighmares full of flying monkeys!
I miss the days when I didn't have to dodge out of the way of some idiot that's texting on their cell phone while walking, not paying attention to what's in front of them. Hey, maybe someone should create an app that has a small window at the top of the cell phone screen that shows the texter what's in front of them? Now, there's an idea......
I miss the days when we would go over to Grandma's house on a Sunday, maybe once a month, and spend 4-5 hours there while her and my Mom would cook the Sunday meal together and we would all sit around the big table eating and talking. Sure, it was boring to me at the time but I sure miss it. If we visited there on a weed day Holiday, then we had to sit and watch all of Grandma's favorite soaps. Good times.
... the days when MTV actually played music videos.
You guys in the Northwest have all the good Holidays.....
^^^^Watches Jersey Shore reruns^^^^
Figures you would.
The arrows are pointing at you my friend. It's okay though at least you don't watch 16 and Pregnant reruns....
I didn't have to. My youngest, a couple of years ago while in middle school, had a teacher in a home economics class that appeared on the show (who even appeared on a second season). Some parents tried to get her fired as being a bad influence. I fought on the side to keep her employed in the district. I had some heated discussions with parents and my daughter lost some friends because of it.
It's tough finding quality teachers around here.Your district hires 16 year old teachers?
She was in her early 20's and was an assistant.
Hi!
What's up
The Wizard of Oz was always a special thing when I was growing up, too. When we were small, and it was getting close to that being on tv, my mom would make sure to have groceries put in big boxes at the store instead of paper bags. Then we would draw and color on them, make them into cars...headlights, doors, wheels, the Ford emblem.
Hey Cat!
This sounds so cool.
I wouldn't mind sitting in a tricked out cardboard box (Yes, Out of Order DiO'Bolic it would have to be a box of industrial size. ) and watch TV. Hugs to you and the little ones.
The 1970s version of KING KONG, by gum! Jessica Lang and Jeff Bridges. Every year they'd show it, and we NEVER missed it.
Hugs right back!Hi!

Hi!
Did you get the chance to watch this old school Christmas show?
I think it got pulled a while back. I haven't seen it in years.

You know, I'm drawing a blank on that one. I'll have to ask my daughter. I'm familiar with the story, but I'm not sure about the cartoon. Good find Siggy.
Oh and I'll be on the lookout for a big box for you..........
The Frank Langella version of Dracula. We'd always gather round the old Zenith for that one. Man, that scene in the tunnels under the cemetery, Papa... Papa...ooo, shiver shiver...
Hi sir.
We would go up to my paternal grandparents every other Christmas. Grandpa would slaughter a hog and there was some good eating for days. (Don't eat the morcilla! Good rule of thumb: If your parents won't tell you what it is, don't eat it.
)BTW: Morcilla is blood sausage like this
But Grandma made hers like this
I liked it better when Lay's potato chips had real fat in them

And once again, one of our threads has turned to pig parts. I'd prefer bacon, thanks!
((Siggy)) Peace.
