Amazingly enough I remember about 20 of them and I am not that old!?! ;)
My favorite - Mimeograph paper. You always knew when the teacher made copies in the morning before class because the room would have that smell. Nothing like making copies with a hand cranked machine... |

there's a scene in the movie fast times at ridgemont high, where Mr Hand passes out a bunch of mimeographed pieces of paper to the class, and every single one of them sniffs the paper for the "high" that came with it ... :) I remember that buzz when I was in grammar school when I was on detention for one reason or antoher, and making copies was one of my punishments :) Quote:

"The Bugaloos, the Bugaloos, they're in the air and everywhere....." I also ate Space Food Sticks on a regular basis - chocolate and peanut butter. I had my purple Banana bike until a few years ago. James at 15...Land of the Lost... those were the days....but I can't be old those were the ones I used and shows I watched.... how many I remember................. a lot |
I got 19, I guess I'm older than dirt
|
Wasnt Land of the Lost a cartoon about dinosaurs? If so, even at 21, I remember that one. I know of a lot of the others, but have never seen them.
EDIT: And M.A.S.H. is immortal... That was too great to ever die, or stop being appreciated... I hope anyway, lol. |
Land of the Lost was a live action show- with a blonde haired girl in pigtails..and her older brother who was kind of a greg brady wannabe...(in his johnny bravo stage) the two kids, with their archaeologist father were on a routine expedition and an earthquake hit.. and chaos ensued weekly..
