| 5435 | Article | Vaporman87 | I wish I could say I had a "corner store" nearby growing up. But I did not. I lived at the top of a hill on a dead-end road. The only thing nearby was the skating rink. But after college and a few years of working in the family business, I moved to Rutland and here we had a real, functioning department store. It carried about anything you could want... groceries, tools, had a deli... it was pretty great. It had been open for more than 100 years when it finally closed (thanks to slowing sales and the appearance of not one, but two new dollar stores... Dollar General and Family Dollar). I won't forget that old-timey feel of the interior of the store. I had heard tales of people 40 or 50 years ago bringing in their grocery lists, and clerks going around picking out the items listed for the customer. There was at one time a bank in the store, and the old vault remained there (becoming a little back office of sorts). And hey... it's where I first found Dutch and Hamato, so... there's that.

| 4839 | Article | Vaporman87 | I wish I could remember all the valentines I received from classmates through the years. I can barely remember any at all. We received valentines from everyone each year, as opposed to just one classmate. | Valentines Over the Years | Feb 07, 2019 | |
| 4987 | Article | Vaporman87 | I wish I could have tried a McDLT now that I'm an adult who could appreciate such things. Maybe one day they'll bring that back. | Retro Fast Food That is No More 2: I'm Lovin' It Edition | Jul 28, 2019 | |
| 451 | Article | AceNThaHole | I wish I could have thought to start a business like that in school! | MINOR TROUBLE | Feb 26, 2013 | |
| 349 | Video | Vaporman87 | I will never forget the poop throwing monster. Or the "gassy" cows. | Conker's Bad Fur Day Opening | Feb 18, 2013 | |
| 603 | Article | shakin steak | I will keep an eye out for DiTillo episodes. I mainly recognized Dini from his credits on Batman TAS. First time I saw his name on the opening shot of a He-Man episode I was like "Holy ****!" I think that was my first clue that there is some quality in there. I've watched a few episodes of Bravestarr; so far it hasn't really grabbed me. Same with Ghostbusters. | New Eyes on He-Man and She-Ra | May 03, 2013 | |
| 5191 | Article | Vaporman87 | I will confess, this is one of those films from the '80s that I have yet to watch. However, during this lockdown situation I have been scratching a few films like this off my list (most recently 'Dune') so I may finally get around to enjoying this one. I love the car design. | The Wraith - An 80's Cult Classic | May 04, 2020 | |
| 1124 | Article | Vaporman87 | I will admit, I could not wait until you had finished this piece to read some of it, so I used my webmaster mojo to dig it up and read some of it while in draft form. LOL. Pardon my impatience. Such a great article. And a fun and poignant reflection of what summer was like in the vkimo house. From the bbq on the grill, to the chlorine filled pools... I can almost smell the memories. This cracked me up every time: "Ah yes, I remember this themed BBQ. Wear your girlfriend's shorts". I also never went to any summer camp. However, as I have previously mentioned elsewhere, I did attend two summers worth of college preparatory programs on the campus of OU. Those are summers I'll never forget. It was a taste of the freedom of college come years early. And I made friendships that, though they did not last, will be forever etched within my mind. Thanks for this vkimo! | In The Summer Time | Jun 06, 2014 | |
| 5564 | Article | Vaporman87 | I whole-heartedly agree. That is awesome though that the place is still kicking. I'm kind of in the reverse situation in that the mall I most frequented is actually thriving. Then again, it's in West Virginia, so they're like 20 years behind the curve, LOL. | Skating Through The Years | Dec 07, 2021 | |
| 1271 | Article | pikachulover | I wet my pants at school too, but I wasn't as lucky. The other kids saw, and I was in the cafeteria. | The Not-So-Great Pumpkin | Sep 18, 2014 | |
