2803	Article	Vaporman87	What a perfectly memorable final Halloween to experience. Such a great story. I literally laughed out loud here in the office at these lines: "And by himself I mean he was very loud, overly active, and incredibly annoying. My mysterious night of fear was now downgraded to one bad *ss Michael Myers and his annoying high school sidekick." So now you've made ME look like a fool laughing at YOU and your friend looking like fools. Ah well, it was worth it. I would have been fumbling all over myself trying to apologize for making those kids cry. Poor things. Thankfully the parents were very understanding.		Oct 08, 2015
4090	Article	Superman	What a nice, spooky story. It's pretty well written for an eleven-year-old. I love the illustrations, too.	Haunted Hotel an 11 year old's narrative	Aug 30, 2017
4167	Article	Superman	What a nice tribute to a woman who was important to you in your teenage years. If I had to say who my Jennifer Lopez was I would probably say Teri Hatcher, though Annette Funicello (despite being a star from an era long past by the time I got into her in the '90s) and Amy Jo Johnson were also significant crushes of mine back then, too.

3084	Article	Vaporman87	What a great trip through some of your most precious memories. Thanks for that Rick. It's a sad reality that nothing lasts forever, and that is especially difficult to swallow when it is something special from your youth that fades away. Malls (like some other unique retail and service businesses) are a strange dichotomy; existing for the profit, yet the most meaningful thing they offer is free... youthful memories. To see something that you feel you have some kind of stake in, as though the time you spent there earned you some say in how it's fate plays out, slowly disintegrate before you... it's heartbreaking. I've seen many such places come and go. Places that meant a great deal to me because of the memories that were made there. They feel sacred, to a certain extent. It makes me wonder what places I and my family frequent now that my own children will feel the same way about.	Memories of the Nanuet Mall	Nov 05, 2015
3727	Article	massreality	What a great post. I love it! Man that picture of everyone huddled around the NES brought back memories of pretty much every birthday party I attended in the late 80's.	Hoju's 7th Birthday Party: 1989	Feb 10, 2017
3052	Article	Vaporman87	What a great list! The Beach Boys are one of those bands that transcends time and changing sounds. They're one of the greatest bands of all time in my opinion. Anyone of any taste in music can find at least one song of theirs that they find appealing, and that's hard to accomplish. Thanks for this Poshy.	Top 10 Beach Boys Songs	Oct 30, 2015
4902	Article	Vaporman87	What a great list! Some of these hits I didn't realize (or had just forgotten) were covers.	Top Cover Songs of the 80s	Apr 10, 2019
5458	Article	Vaporman87	What a great idea for an article! Man, there are a wealth of things I’d like to have back. I still have cassette tapes that were meant to be used with the PXL2000, a low end video camera from Fisher-Price. It was my first video camera, and the video quality was black and white and pretty terrible. The version I got came with a small black and white TV that you could connect the camera to watch your videos. If I can find one online to buy someday, I can find out what is on those tapes. It would be the first time seeing their contents in over 3 decades. Other items I wish I still had… my Radio Shack Armatron, my programmable Big Trak, and my entire collection of Stomper vehicles and playset. There are several stuffed animals I wish I still had as well.	The Things We've Lost	Aug 07, 2021
5699	Article	Just_Esh_68'	What a great entry! It was as if you were writing about my very own childhood. I think my favorite part was how you captured the innocence of the 80's; even though so many would make the claim that the decade was anything but! This was truly a favorite of mine!	Summer's End	Jan 11, 2023
4002	Article	OldSchool80s	What a fun treasure hunt. It is so amazing how something so small or seemingly insignificant can cause nostalgia to come flooding in. To me it can be just a certain smell and I am taken back in an instant. That's what it is all about for me, the feelings of intense nostalgia that those lovely things can bring me.
