    I love these. I built a list. Lefts remember the good old days. Where nothing mattered but collecting firebugs outside! lol

    Here is the list. Please feel to add some:


    You remember when it was actually worth getting up early
    on a Saturday to watch cartoons.

    You got super excited when it was Oregon Trail day in computer class at school.

    You remember reading "Goosebumps"

    You know the profound meaning of "Wax on, wax off"

    Where in the world is Carmen San Diego? was both a game and a TV game show.

    You remember when super nintendo's became popular.

    You remember watching home alone 1, 2 , and 3........and tried to pull the pranks on "intruders"

    "I've fallen and I can't get up"

    You remember going to the skating rink before there were inline skates

    Two words... Trapper Keeper.

    You never got injured on a Slip 'n' Slide

    You remember boom boxes vs. cd players

    You played and/or collected "Pogs"

    You had at least one Tamagotchi, GigaPet or Nano and brought it everywhere

    You watched the original Ninja Turtles.

    THE HARDY BOYS WERE THE BEST MYSTERY BOOKS EVER!

    You remember when the new Beanie Babies were always sold out.

    You've gotten creeped out by "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"

    You know the Macarena by heart.

    "Talk to the hand" ... enough said

    You thought Brain woud finally take over the world

    You always said, "Then why don't you marry it!"

    You remember when everyone went slinky crazy.

    You remember when razor scooters were cool.


    When we were younger:

    Before the MySpace frenzy...

    Before the Internet & text messaging...

    Before Sidekicks & iPods...

    Before MIKE JONES...

    Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX...

    When light up sneakers were cool.

    When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.

    When gas was $0.95 a gallon & Caller ID was a new thing.

    When we recorded stuff on VCRs & paid $3.50 for a movie.

    When the Chicago Bulls were the best team ever.

    Way back.

    Tag.

    Get Over Here!!!! means something to you.

    Hide-n-Go Seek at dusk.

    Red Light, Green Light.

    Heads Up 7 Up.

    HELLO....HOT WHEELS!!!!!

    The annoying Giga Pets & Furbies.

    Running through the sprinklers.

    That "Little Mermaid"

    Crying when Mufasa died in the Lion King.

    Happy Meals where you chose a Barbie or a Hot Wheels car.

    Getting the privelage to sit in the front seat of the car.

    CAPRI SUN

    Watching Saturday Morning Cartoons in your PJ's still wrapped up in your Power Rangers comforter.

    The original Power Rangers

    Or what about:

    Rugrats.

    Rocco's Modern Life.

    Doug.

    Magic School Bus.

    Pinky and the Brain

    Wishbone.

    Bill Nye the Science Guy

    MR ROGERS!!!!

    Who could forget Snick? & Nick @ Nite with Bewitched, I Dream of Jenie, The Facts of Life & I Love Lucy.

    Kool-Aid was the drink of choice.

    Wearing your new shoes on the first day of school.

    Class field trips.

    When Christmas was the most exciting time of year.

    When $5 seemed like a million, & another dollar a miracle.

    When you begged to go to McDonalds for dinner everyday.

    When Toys R Us overuled the mall.


    Decisions were made by going 'eeny-meeny-miney-moe'.

    Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming 'do over!'

    'Race issue' ment arguing about who ran the fastest.

    Money issues were handled by whoever was banker in 'Monopoly.'

    It wasn't odd to have two or three 'best' friends.

    Being old referred to anyone over 20.

    It was a big deal to finally be tall enought to ride the 'big people' rides at the fair.

    When playing Nintendo was the hardest thing ever.

    When Ninja Turtles ruled the world.

    When Aladdin was new, before the trilogy was complete.

    Before we realized all this would eventually disappear
