3973ArticleHoju KoolanderOh Xuxa, so bizarre. Like NLogan I spent some time in Brazil where she is a Megastar and saw her face everywhere. But I knew her first from this show in the 6 am timeslots pikachulover mentioned. I had forgotten Masters of the Maze, but actually watched it daily after school. JD Roth was the ultimate kid's show host for me. I've been enjoying your article contributions, keep it up! Jun 28, 2017View
4987ArticleVaporman87I wish I could have tried a McDLT now that I'm an adult who could appreciate such things. Maybe one day they'll bring that back. Retro Fast Food That is No More 2: I'm Lovin' It EditionJul 28, 2019View
4988ArticleBenjanimeit sucks when exclusive fast food meals just come and go like that, even taco bell has had some great stuff to this day that seems like it's only around for a short time. great history here, and another great article :)Retro Fast Food That is No More 2: I'm Lovin' It EditionJul 28, 2019View
4997ArticlePittsburghgirlI remember I did not like the McDLT. The whole thing was always cold. And you’re right, no one wants to assemble their sandwich at a fast food place. I have never tried any of the other special sandwiches, except the McRib. It was good years ago. I had one last year and it was awful.

3949ArticleVaporman87Thanks for sharing these special memories with your father post-divorce. I know exactly how you felt. I too had to deal with the divorce of my parents at around the same age. It was a difficult time, but it was nice to have the time specifically devoted to doing things together. I lived with my mom until I was old enough to make my own choice of who to live with, and since my mom was moving to another town and I had no interest in losing my friends and making new ones, I moved in with my dad. But I can still remember that first time I visited dad following the split. He took us into town and bought me a Mantis figure from G.C. Murphy's, then we went and watched Silver Bullet. I remember nothing about that movie, but I clearly recall that it was the film we watched. I benefited from the divorce in many ways, but most of all with an expanded family. I earned a brother that I am close to even today, with my dad once again divorced. I met many new people I would have otherwise never known, and experienced new things. Sure it was tough on me, but I don't think I would go back and change anything in regard to their split. Divorced Dad MemoriesJun 21, 2017View
3955ArticleNLoganI can relate. I too was an every other weekend visit to dad's kid. Freddy's in the mountain states is a cool 50s joint to get a burger. You already know I love comics. My dad, my twin and I all had our weekly rituals or as my dad put it, "Let's rent a pizza, and buy a movie". We did Shopping at Food 4 Less with the grocery total being the same week after week, Blockbuster Video until we were banned and then some no name ma and pa video store, miniature golf, arcades, moview theaters, and Tae Kwon Do.Divorced Dad MemoriesJun 21, 2017View
3956ArticleNLoganI also have this issue of Amazing Spider-Man that looks suspiciously similar to yours. <p><img src="http://retro-daze.org/uploads/0ebb67faf2111904784c7f409f76a328.jpg"> </p>Divorced Dad MemoriesJun 21, 2017View
3957ArticleRick Ace RhodesWhile I can't relate fully, there was a brief period in my life where I went through this. My parents split up for a period of time back when I was in third grade. They eventually got back together, but it was a weird period none the less. I remember sitting in bed one night, a night that my father returned home after I went to bed. I was pretending to sleep while listening to my parents in the living room have an extremely emotional discussion. I just spent the entire night that night thinking about what the future held for my family and how the life I had up until that moment was likely over. Soon after that is when I started having days out with my dad on the weekend. From the morning to night he would take me out to eat, see a movie, go shopping and just do other activities that he knew I would enjoy. While I enjoyed every day I had with him, deep down on the inside I was upset knowing that this was likely going to be the new normal for me. I guess I’m a lucky kid in this type of situation, my parents got back together eventually. Eventually the entire incident became a thing of the past and was completely forgotten by everyone.Divorced Dad MemoriesJun 21, 2017View
3958ArticleNLoganI also listened to the shadow on cassette tape collections with my uncle. "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" Followed by this menacing laugh. We also eat German Pancakes at my house. I get the corners.Divorced Dad MemoriesJun 21, 2017View
3960ArticleVaporman87@Rick: What a great thing that your parents eventually reconciled their differences. Spared you a lot of uncertainty and sleepless nights. If there was one thing that bothered me the most about my parents' divorce, it was that I no longer had my Dad around to make me feel safe in my own home.Divorced Dad MemoriesJun 21, 2017View
