| 2001 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I love the interactive nature of their marketing campaign with the whole phone message gimmick. It would be interesting to know if the OK formula ever got re-purposed for another soda in a foreign country or something. | Feb 16, 2015 |  | |
| 2000 | Article | OldSchool80s | Never even heard of OK soda before and I am even from the state right next door in Wisconsin. Seems to have made quite an impression on you, though. Love how certain things from our youth can have that kind of long-term impact. | Things Are Going To Be OK | Feb 16, 2015 | |
| 1999 | Article | MissM | That is crazy! I can't believe your school had a connection with that lady and the modeling school. That is some experience you went through. I liked how you also mentioned the Sailor Moon episode because while reading about your experience I kept thinking, this sounds like it could turn into a Sailor Moon episode or something. | Model Student | Feb 16, 2015 | |
| 1998 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @vkimo Oh, you got me! The funniest part was when I went to pick her up and mispronounced her name which had a very exotic, eastern European spelling. Her Mom just gave me this look like, "You're taking my daughter out and you can't even say her name right? Good luck!" just in case you were wondering she wasn't a high school girl or anything, with the living at home deal. It's not of THOSE Internet dating stories. | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 13, 2015 | |
| 1997 | Article | vkimo | Hoju, I knew something was going on between you and JujUbeme! | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 13, 2015 | |
| 1996 | Video | Vaporman87 | One of those great B action stars that was getting all kinds of work in the 80's. | Avenging Force | Feb 13, 2015 | |
| 1995 | Video | jkatz | Can't hold off the Dudikoff! | Avenging Force | Feb 13, 2015 | |
| 1994 | Article | Hoju Koolander | This article has taken me so long to process, such great memories. Glad I got on the Retrojunk Train during the Golden era, it was such a fun and sometimes awkward community to be a part of. I had never been "involved" in the Internet before, but supportive folks like vkimo, Cosgrove and good old' Caps 2.0 made me want to stick around. Even Dalmationlover, who irritated me in the best way possible, he was like my annoying online kid brother. I even had my one and only online dating experience, flirting and private messaging for months with one of the scarce women you spoke about in the article, which resulted in one crazy date that went like this: roller derby, Greek food and a midnight screening of A Clockwork Orange. Gee, I wonder why it didn't go anywhere? ;) But in the end it was just great to share my memories with people that could relate and appreciate my useless knowledge. I'm glad I've had the chance to reconnect with so many of you here and that vkimo's black magic ability to attract unheard of attention to his articles remains in tact. Is it goat's blood or eye of newt that does the trick? | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 13, 2015 | |
| 1993 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 I appreciate your final thought there. This has really struck a cord on my Facebook page too, judging by the comments. Hey, if we can raise a kinder generation of kids it would be great. Otherwise we can just help our kids to deal with the inevitable times of being singled out for our differences and teach them to celebrate that. Sure I got picked on, but I never changed for other people. Eventually they appreciated who I was. OK, off my soap box now ;) @NLogan It's so cool that you had back-up all those years, great to have a partner along for the ride. Al That moving must have been rough. Your point about the possessions is pretty well founded, sometimes they would be the only constant. | Being The Fat Kid | Feb 13, 2015 | |
| 1992 | Article | Benjanime | True, but I don't know about him helping me. When I visited him again for his Birthday he had a suspicious look on his face, so he possibly did get the idea that I'd steal them. From what I recall in Normy it was about some hippie guy that has to rescue a group of clad beach girls after an alien abduction. | How to ruin a friendship without really trying | Feb 13, 2015 | |
