2963ArticlepikachuloverI was like one of the biggest No Doubt fans at my high school. People who never met me knew that was my "thing".  Oct 16, 2015View
4426ArticleSupermanI was kind of like you as a kid in that I wasn't all that into sports, so I never read that much of Sports Illustrated. Still, this was a nice look back at the magazine.Retro Magazine RoundUp: Sports Illustrated 1994Jun 15, 2018View
3479ArticleHoju KoolanderI was just telling my wife about Superman Peanut Butter last week. It was always a request of mine at the supermarket, but I usually had to settle for Peter Pan brand as my fictional character tie-in condiment. I can't believe I missed the Super-hero burger, but if it was only around for a month, i guess that explains it.Foods Long Gone: The SequelMar 23, 2016View
1080ArticleVaporman87I was indeed a fan of Bob's. He was a great actor and by all accounts a decent fellow. These passings are a sober reminder that, though we may live separate lives in completely different cultures, we all share the same fate... even those "larger than life" stars. He will be greatly missed. Farewell Bob HoskinsMay 06, 2014View

4112ArticleRick Ace RhodesI was in school when it happened. First grade at the time. Barely even into the school year at that point. We had art class that morning. I don't know if we were forced to leave art class early or if we just left at the standard time, but it was after art class that everything went wrong. As we were walking back to class, the vice principal was walking down the hall and told us "Code Red". Our teacher informed us that this wasn't a drill and that it was serious. As we were walking by the door that was the entrance to the school, I saw my mother among a swarm of parents signing out their kids to bring them home early. After sitting in the classroom for a few minutes, I was pulled out by mother and taken home. After being home for a few minutes, my father arrived home cursing and shouting at the TV. I don't really remember the rest of the day. The weeks that followed I do remember. It was a pretty emotional time, especially for my town. I came from a town that had a lot of first responders to the attack. To add to the sad climate, a girl who was in my class lost her father in the attacks. Everyday we wore flag pins to school to show our support. Even as a young kid it was impossible to be shielded from what happened. In some way I guess I'm glad that I and my fellow classmates were so young at the time. We didn't have to experience the horror like many others here on Retro Daze had to as young adults or even teenagers in High School. Where Were You That September Day?Sep 11, 2017View
1578ArticleVaporman87I was in my second year of college when this game first hit home consoles. I was fairly excited about it, though MK was never a favorite of mine. But when things really turned ugly and we had government stepping in to try and censor games, I got a little more interested in not just the game, but how it was being received. There is an article by raptor that covers a little bit of that episode. I enjoyed both versions for home consoles (the SNES and Genesis). For me however, I took my anger at some magazines, namely Electronic Gaming Monthly, to a whole other level. I too was seeing some editor bias in those days, and I was going to make my thoughts heard to these people. So one of my roommates and I typed up a 7 page letter and sent it to EGM. I still have a copy of that letter. It's hilarious to read now (thinking that such a thing would matter at all in life). But I guess we all were a little passionate about stupid things in our youth. As for my favorite character, I was always a Sub Zero/Scorpion fan. Mortal Kombat MemoriesDec 09, 2014View
3751ArticleLazloI was in my own little world in the mid 90s, and just not into popular culture. After reading this, I just have to check out The Head and The Maxx . . . I'll look it up on Youtube and see if there are DVD sets out there. Both seem right up my alley, all weird and trippy.MTV: The 90'sFeb 13, 2017View
4140ArticleDirtyD79I was in college back then. I was asleep when it happened since it was my day off. My mom woke me up telling me I should come out and check out the news. That's how I found out about it. Where Were You That September Day?Sep 21, 2017View
