We also had a great time playing with CBs in the car...once I got hit on by a trucker over the CB..I was like 10... :shock: :oops: :? :wtf:

haha we would ride the back of pickup trucks on the freeway too....in hindsight it probably wasn't a great idea, but we managed to hang on tight enough I guess :lol:

Great thread! With my 30th b-day tomorrow I have been very nostalgic lately. I long for the the days of pop rocks, alf, teddy ruxpin, lite brites, and woolly willy(the magnetic doodle thing).

And of course, online porn was limited to trying to view the scrambled cinemax (skinimax!) channel.
"You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.

the big sigh that kids have perfected these days indicating that theyre bored and their massive brains cant think of anything AT ALL to do besides annoy their parents with the im bored sigh. go play outside??? whats that mean??? :lol:
Now what we have to understand is that this comes from an extremely clever and skillful program, that has manipulated us into ways of thinking that may be contrary to our own interests, but beneficial to the interests of the powers that be... beneficial to the interests of those who control our lives, and tax us until we have hardly a penny left to spend, take our money, and plough it into the creation of huge, armed bureaucracies, which exist to oppress us. We live in a society today where we may not make decisions, to explore our own consciousness. If I am not sovereign over my own consciousness, then I am sovereign over nothing.
