1261ArticlefuschniktAh, yes. I had originally written this for my friends. I edited some, but left that in. It humored me that obviously nobody would know the place. Maybe should have nixed it. Still humored that you noticed. Thankfully, my Halloween submission is brand new and features nothing obscure like this. That one even has a picture..sort of. Sep 16, 2014View
2017ArticleAnEarly90sManAh...The Super Soaker 100. I'm still in love with it after all of these years.Retro ThriftingFeb 18, 2015View
5466ArticleVaporman87Ahh man… that sucks about the college film. Who knows what might have been on it. More games to identify? The Things We've LostAug 09, 2021View
2600ArticleMr MagicAhh, Gushers. I still have memories of those commercials where the kids have heads that get turned into fruits! XDFruit SnacksSep 04, 2015View
3242ArticleVaporman87Ahh, man. How I miss the Wendy's Super Bar. There used to be one in the Wendy's about 20 minutes from me. It was a glorious thing, for a reasonable price. And yes, it was always fun to watch those "regular guys" doing battle. I always found it funny to watch. Even so, some of them were technically talented. Others were just there to get beat up.Random Retro Part 1Jan 05, 2016View
1633ArticleVaporman87Ahh, man. I share your joy of reminiscing about the use of the record function of cassette recorders/players of our day. Only, where you were delighting in capturing your favorite songs of the day, I was using mine to preserve, for all time, my ability to pretend to be a DJ/Radio Talk Show Host/Sportscaster... along with some buddies of mine. I have probably 40 cassettes containing various mixes of those pretending sessions. Some were actually funny, most were only funny to me and the people I recorded them with. Though, something tells me they will be found humorous again someday when my kids find them and start listening to dad acting a fool in his youth. E.T. was huge for sure. My mom even had somebody she knew make an E.T. cake for me. But this was not a sheet cake with E.T. painted on with icing. It was a cake IN THE SHAPE of E.T.! Probably about 2 feet high. It tasted... awful. But man... it was cool to look at. Thanks for sharing this with us OldSchool. It's good to read something from you again.My Christmas 1982Dec 14, 2014View
868ArticleBenjanimeAhh, Phantasy Star III, also known as the black sheep of the series. I still have yet to get all of the endingsThe Role of Phantasy Star IIINov 22, 2013View
5589ArticleVaporman87Ahh. I feel safer within my winterproof fort already. I have known of the curious case of hot Dr Pepper for quite some time. As my favorite soda, it definitely boggles the mind to think of it being gulped down like a coffee. My grandmother left us a few boxes of recipes pulled from magazines of her time containing recipes like you mention that really make you scratch your head. Who thought of these things?! Who would have eaten them? Blech! Though, once in a while, I'd come across one that sounded sort of edible. As for reading, I've been in and out of the world of Olympic Vista (via the Olympic Vista Chronicles), with the first of a series, "Yesterday's Gone" by Kelly Pawlik. It's been a satisfactory defense against the snow and ice. Surviving the Long, Cold Winter Part II: Further FortificationsJan 20, 2022View
3835ArticleVaporman87Ahh. So I'm guessing Marvel's dislike for the character spawned a name change to Miracle Man? There are so many great characters from the early days of comics that haven't seen the light of day in decades. My wife once purchased me a book that listed some of the worst comic villains ever created, and many of them were from comics I'd never heard of from the 50's.

3469ArticleVaporman87Ahh... pudding in a can and O'Boisies. I could go for either or both of those right about now. Great memory, Mickey. I have to agree... something about being packaged in a can added that extra something to the taste of the pudding. I feel the same way about soda (though I no longer drink soda). Between your Hardee's and McDonald's diet, it's a wonder you could even move. LOLFoods Long Gone: The SequelMar 22, 2016View
