| 2443 | Article | Vaporman87 | I never had the opportunity to place this one. It seemed to stray quite a bit from the standard Mario offering, and I think that made me unsure of whether or not it was worth investing any time into. I guess I figured nothing could top Mario 64 | Aug 02, 2015 |  | |
| 2444 | Article | Vaporman87 | My Trapper Keepers were vaults into my imagination, which also happened to house my schoolwork. I decorated them and filled them up with tons of sketches and comics I drew during study hall. I never had a really cool backpack. They were always pretty plain looking, with no licensed product on anything on them. Now my folders were a different story. I had lots of different folders featuring cartoon characters to just funky shapes to just plain red or blue. Those too were decorated to fit my desires. Those pencils with the "bullet" leads were some of my favorites, even if they weren't that practical. I don't think owned any of those until I entered high school though. I do have a story that pertains to this subject a bit. Once, while I was cleaning out my desk while our teacher (Mr. Will, a bit of a hothead) giving a lesson, I suddenly heard the smack of my pencil box on the top of my desk and saw it shatter into pieces before me. My stuff went everywhere, including one of those compasses with the sharp point on it to hold it in place on the paper. It startled me. Then I saw that it was the teacher who had picked it up off my desk and shattered it. He didn't like that I was cleaning my desk while he was talking. He then said something to the effect of, "And I don't care if you tell your parents about this, it's your fault." Well, I did tell my mom (my parents were divorced at this time). She was dating a State Highway Patrolman at the time, who was 6'8" tall. He and my mom went to pay him a visit. LOL The next day, he apologized to me and the class, and purchased me a new box. Yeah. I think he ended up caring that I told a parent. | Retro School Supplies | Aug 02, 2015 | |
| 2446 | Article | Vaporman87 | Nope. In fact, I went on to become a ninja (or at least dressed exactly like one). I got a ninja suit for Christmas one year out of one of those martial arts catalogs. | The Karate Class Kid | Aug 02, 2015 | |
| 2447 | Article | Vaporman87 | I hope to catch this series some time. Perhaps on YouTube or elsewhere. I hate that I missed it on it's first go around. This is something that would have interested me in my youth. I like shows like this and Fantasy Island. Anything with a bit of intrigue and mystery/adventure. | A Look Back at Tales of the Gold Monkey | Aug 02, 2015 | |
| 2449 | Article | Vaporman87 | I wonder how socially scorned they would be if we sent them to school with all the coolest stuff... from when WE were in school? They could tell them it's "retro cool" and classified as memorabilia. Hmmm. | Retro School Supplies | Aug 03, 2015 | |
| 2450 | Article | Vaporman87 | Sonic CD and Earthworm Jim are two great games from this list. Earthworm Jim always appealed to me because of the cooky nature of it's protagonist and story. I became a fan of Doug TenNapel after this game was released. Such a creative mind and interesting personality. | Top Ten Video Games That I Played During Summer | Aug 03, 2015 | |
| 2451 | Article | Vaporman87 | I was always a Bases Loaded guy. That game gave me and my friends so many hours of competitive fun. But when Baseball Stars came out, I have to say it did steal some of Bases Loaded's thunder. I loved creating my own teams and players(I can even tell you the one I used the most, Grate's Gung-Hos). I loved earning money and making the team and players better. If there was one thing I REALLY wished Jaleco would have done with Bases Loaded 2, it would have been adding the creative aspects of Baseball Stars in. Great trip down Memory Lane OldSchool! | Retro Gaming: Baseball Stars for Nintendo | Aug 03, 2015 | |
| 2456 | Article | Vaporman87 | I'm going to have to check that out. What platforms will it be on? | Top Ten Video Games That I Played During Summer | Aug 04, 2015 | |
| 2460 | Article | Vaporman87 | @OldSchool: Oh yeah! I had forgotten all about those pens. Those were so cool back in the day. I had a few of those too. Though the only color that really got much use was black, followed by blue. | Retro School Supplies | Aug 04, 2015 | |
| 2461 | Article | Vaporman87 | Well, since I just recently purchased a PS4, that works out nicely. | Top Ten Video Games That I Played During Summer | Aug 04, 2015 | |
