I'm sure the intent was to keep things purposefully vague in terms of the time period in order to appeal to as many people as possible, while still drawing on nostalgia to connect with people. All I know is that all this talk of Napoleon Dynamite has me hungry for tater tots for some reason. | Vaporman87 | Apr 05, 2016 |  |
| 30795 | Do you "fit in"? | I concur with shakin. That story of your Navy kid childhood is a nice bright spot. I am so glad you did not have to face the same trials as so many others from that day and time, at least for a while anyway. Brings a smile to one's face. | Vaporman87 | Apr 05, 2016 | |

| 30791 | The Sports Thread | I was listening on the radio to the Reds opening day game, and at the time they were losing 2 to 1 and I figured they would go on to lose. They won 6 - 2. Needless to say, that was a nice surprise. | Vaporman87 | Apr 05, 2016 | |

That's a great story, Edd. I know that feeling. When a song just sweeps you away into it and it suddenly feels like it's your theme song to whatever your're doing. :lol:<blockquote rel="eddstarr"><b>eddstarr wrote :</b><i><div style="font-style: normal;">Stuff I watched in '86 and '87 still stays with me. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Remember This?</span></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Note the reader card during countdown - 1986!</span></div><div style="font-style: normal;"><b style="font-size: 10pt;">-end quote</b></div></i></blockquote>Yes I do remember that. It's funny in that it captures the whole tone of 80's music and the music video revolution and turns it into a Nestle commercial. Great ad. | Vaporman87 | Apr 05, 2016 | |

| 30788 | Last Movie You Watched | Back Roads (1981)<div><br></div><div>Found out about this while approving some videos for the site. Looked like one of those movies that came and went, totally forgotten. A fun romp that was nothing special but entertaining none the less. Sally Field was smoking when she was young, but she always seemed to have an overly motherly face to me. I love road trip type movies so this was worth a watch.</div><div><br></div><div>3/5</div> | vkimo | Apr 05, 2016 | |
