The "When I was a kid...." Thread

Oh and I also remember

Spiderman. Spiderman
Does whatever a spider can
Spins a web, any size
Catches thieves- just like flies
Look out! Here comes the Spiderman
Is he strong? Listen, bud
He's got radioactive blood
Can he swing, from a thread?
Take a look overhead
Hey, there! There goes the Spiderman!
In the chill of night, at the scene of a crime
Like a streak of light, he arrives just in time!
Spiderman. Spiderman.
Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman.
Wealth and fame? He's ignored.
Action is his reward.
To him, life is a great big bang-up.
Wherever there's a hang-up,
you'll find the Spiderman!

It's kind of disturbing that you can actually remember that.

I am in need of a bed right now (deperatyely, maybe), but the first thing I actually remember is Geoge Bush I's Inauguration. That's right, folk, I have memories into my fourth and fifth years of existence....now....if only there was more....and I am 18.

That last post didn't make me look old. I remember when:

iPods weren't around.

The only people burning music were paranoid fundies.

Nixon was still alive.

Before DVD players.

Really, not much has changed since a decade ago. George Bush is in office, there's talk about a war with Iraq, and Walter Mondale was running for political office.
