Haha I loved dinosaurs! Im still a kid at heart despite my age. I have a Lion King bed spread and pillow case, a huge comic book collection, and like kiddy movies and figurines and stuff. I have lots of plush toys too. Then there's the entire music thing...big clash but I like my eccentric, eclectic room.

I was born in 1973.

I remember seeing Star Wars ( IV to you nerds, the FIRST AND BEST to me ) in the theater when i was five.

I remember cars were all GIGANTIC! The size of blue whales!

I remember when Michael Jackson was a kid. And black. And talented. And SANE!

I remember bmx-ing allover southern California. Hazy hot days and blood red skies in the evenings.

I remember SATURDAY MORNING CARTOONS. All of the were bad, but we loved them anyway.

I remember President REAGAN getting shot on live tv.

I remember DRAGON'S LAIR, when it was new in the arcades!

I remember when there still WERE arcades. And they were dangerous, smoky places. In other words, they were FUN! They weren't like today's sanitized "family fun centers"

I remember toys were made of metal, had sharp edges, and were fun to beat a sibling with.

I remember when AIDS was the new "mystery disease"

I remember "Ice Cream Cones cereal"

That's all for now :} I am OLD...

Tsk,Tsk. The elderly are being held up on memory lane "Give me your memories or I'll cut you!"

I remember my elementary school transformer was in the kindergarten playground(1996),without a fence. (Sigh) We protect our kids too much, an electric shock teaches kids not to touch.
