FLASH BACK

God help us. I lived thru it once, please don't make me relive it again.  The ripped clothing, the punk rock look, the exercise guru, and the neon everything. What a fashion statement we were. The legwarmers, jelly bracelets and shoes, Guess jeans, oversize sweatshirts, mini skirts, stretch pants, sweaters around the shoulders, (my sister wants to bring this look back in.), shoulder pads, baggy blazers with rolled up sleeves, clothes in layers, jean jackets, acid wash jeans, parachute pants, and Reebok high top tennis shoes. Big hair, mall bangs, huge earrings, banana clips, friendship bracelets, sunglasses, and big purses. MTV came out in the 80's, the rubics cube, swatch watches, (still have mine), and Tab was the pop to drink. YUCK! The Atari was the only game unit to play on the TV, (Still have this too. On occasions I get it out to play River Raider, Pit Fall, Frogger, Centapide, and Ms. Pac-man.) Break dancing was hot, boom boxes, Madonna, Bon Jovi, Michael Jackson, Prince, Cyndi Lauper, and GOOD rock-n-roll. Today's term... Hair Bands! Music was on cassette tapes,  Macintosh had the Apple II computer, and KYDZ was the radio station that rocked!!!
