1649ArticleHoju Koolander@Vaporman87 I might just take you up on that. It's about time to transfer those recording before the tapes disintegrate anyway. Dec 15, 2014View
1651ArticleHoju Koolander@MissM Thanks. Glad to know I'm not alone in remembering that this thing existed. Where did you get the magazine? Super Market? Toy Store?Mortal Kombat MemoriesDec 15, 2014View
1660ArticleHoju KoolanderYour Christmas tale definitely makes me wish we had an extended family we could visit, but my wife and I are both "stranded in the desert" far away from home. I loved the excitement of family reunions growing up and seeing all the distant relatives I never knew existed. @NLogan That is a pretty great lesson your Dad taught you guys. Your epic story makes me realize I should have involved my Dad when my Star Wars toys got stolen by a neighbor kid and his brother. My Mom just didn't have that intimidation factor.vkimo's Christmas SpecialDec 16, 2014View
1676ArticleHoju KoolanderIt's definitely Nintendo that binds generations and family. Genetic connections are great, but who's your favorite character on Mario Kart? Nintendo breaks down all walls. I remember being fascinated with Mario Paint and the fact that they stuck in that fly swatter game for the kids that weren't very good at "creating art". Starfox was the game packaged with the Super NES set that I got one Christmas and I never really expanded my collection past that (just rented from Blockbuster). But really what more did you need? Cool graphics, neat character designs and simple, but challenging gameplay. Good times.How Mario Saved Christmas... and Other Super Nintendo TalesDec 17, 2014View
1681ArticleHoju Koolander@BarryBgp and thecrow174 I'm glad to see Dutch getting so much love this Christmas. And hey, it's good to have you in the mix here, Barry. @Vaporman87 My wife is in full agreement on Emmett Otter and I started watching The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus last night. It's like the Lord of the Rings Christmas Special, pretty epic. What To Watch on ChristmasDec 17, 2014View
1683ArticleHoju KoolanderI think you made the right choice with "The Night Santa Went Crazy". "Christmas at Ground Zero" is less relevant since the Cold War ended.My list of Holiday songsDec 17, 2014View
1691ArticleHoju Koolander@NLogan Mmmm, chocolate oranges were a treat. I think those nutcrackers were pretty widely purchased from the 40s-80s, but it seems like a tradition that may have already faded away for our generation. I'll have to keep count this year on how many I see in friend's homes.Stocking StuffersDec 18, 2014View
1692ArticleHoju KoolanderGlad to see you got to analyze your own Christmas photos, very impressive. The picture of you "bowing" your brother is pretty much the cutest thing ever (yeah, guys can say cute!). You got a lot of great gifts over the years, but I have to say I'm most impressed that Santa had super hero coloring books to give out instead of candy canes, that's my kinda Santa! Also, are the girls on either side of Santa supposed to be elves or Nuns? NLogan's Retro ChristmasDec 18, 2014View
1728ArticleHoju Koolander@Vaporman87 Aww, great to see the kids sharing a moment with Santa together. Did they take turns telling him why they wanted or was it just a photo op? Yeah, I was pretty sure the bakers chocolate switcheroo has has caught most of us off guard during childhood. @NLogan I'm pretty sure Rudolph hogged ALL the carrots for himself anyway, only sharing with the Reindeers that didn't shun him during his years as a pariah. @pikachulover I never had heard this Christmas potato idea. I think it could go right up there with the families that hide the Christmas pickle ornament. Have you heard about that weird-o tradition?The Santa DiariesDec 23, 2014View
1736ArticleHoju Koolander@Vaporman87 That Elf idea is awesome. My 4th grade teacher did a similar thing with Leprechauns during St. Patrick's Day and I loved it. @pikachulover Wow, you had the whole shebang, that's awesome! I think my regional theory is right, because you're another California kid who also owned the book and tape. We'll see if any Midwest or East Coast commenters can shed some light Phroomf's national exposure.Forgotten Christmas: PhroomfDec 23, 2014View
