I've been going through some of my old video tapes from the 80s. It's funny to see a lot of the videos and commercials (when I forgot to pause the VCR, it was a top-loading VCR!).

Anyone remember a song called Dog Police? I cracked up when I saw it again! It was the winner of MTV's Basement Tapes contest.

On the tape, I have a lot of stand-up comedians. Some of them eventually went on to become big stars: Rosie O'Donnel, Jenny Jones among them.

I didn't see Flight of the Navigator. But I had a LOT of pairs of jams. I think that's the only type of shorts I would wear in the summer, and they were all ugly!!!

Ahhhhh....peer pressure!

What about parachute pants? I had 4 pairs, red, black, white and teal. I didn't even break-dance!

Does anyone remember a cartoon from the 80s called Battle of the Planets? The main characters were the G-Force. There were five of them and they had kind of a bird thing going on. Their ship was called the Phoenix. I think the characters names were: Mark, Jason, Princess, Tiny and Keyop. My friend Anthony and I would play G-Force on the playground and the big jungle-gym was the Phoenix.
Lots of fun!

I may have been born in the late 80s, but I like Transformers, man. I'm not talking about the new ones either. The old Transformers will always rule! ...especially the movie. :D

I saw plenty of the old He-Man, but I can't remember much of it.

Cartoon Network is showing the old GI-Joe late Saturday nights.

Just thought I should get that out.

Perilous, because I'm bound to get into fights I can't win. Drunken, because ALE! Angel, because a valkyrie is basically an angel of Odin.

OK, I added the time between birth and starting school for you young-uns!

Ash: You're right, although the original ones came out when I was in HS. But I had a GI Joe! And one of my favorite toys was Legos!
