I am so very blessed
Remember when Kurt Russell was young?

The Hardy Boys (yummmmm, Shawn Cassidy) and the Nancy Drew Show.

Buying my dad a carton of cigs for Christmas for $8.00 (when he still smoked).

I remember when picking up a snowball in school was not considered a crime. When it snowed really bad, they didn't even dismiss school, since we all walked anyways. The teachers would take us outside for a long recess and we would have a massive snowball fight, teachers playing right along with us.

Okay, that one made me feel weird - we were kids when the Egg McMuffin was invented. That's almost like being around for the invention of electric lights.
I seems to remember when I was young that there were ashtrays in mcdonalds that had the "M" impression in the bottom of them.

As an 80's child, I remember wearing tons of jelly bracelets and even had a pair of Jelly shoes. Boy, if I ever see those in an antique store, I might be tempted to buy them just to have them. :lmao:
