| 1982 | Legos | I missed getting a free Star Wars ship That sucks | AceNThaHole | May 06, 2013 |  |
| 1981 | The Skating Rink | I can't skate worth a crap, but I tried my best when I went to the rink. | Mr Magic | May 05, 2013 | |
| 1980 | Legos | <blockquote rel="Vaporman87"><b>Vaporman87 wrote :</b><br>Later these can be torn apart and strewn on the floor for me to step on and wonder what the heck I was thinking.</blockquote> lol <blockquote rel="Vaporman87"><b>Vaporman87 wrote :</b><br>I spent most of my time with Legos attempting to build a working robot. Unfortunately, imagination and desire are not that effective at bringing autonomy to a stack of Legos. :))</blockquote> Of course, now with Mindstorms it's totally possible. I've never played with those but it's pretty cool that's available now. Maybe I will sometime, add it to the list of 500 projects on my docket...one thing I kind of don't like is so many lego sets now that are very specific. You can get kits to make a Death Star or whatever, that have all the pieces needed to do so and only those and they can't really be used for much else. I'm like, if you want to make a model, get a model kit where the finished result isn't for disassembly. Eah, I'm kind of rambling now but the Hairy Pooter legos and such are just a little mystifying to me. When I was growing up just having legos with moving wheels was crazy. On the other hand should the progress really be a bad thing? <blockquote rel="Vaporman87"><b>Vaporman87 wrote :</b><br><br>my two sons are big into Star Wars legos, <font color=gray>and they are outrageously priced</font></blockquote>Well, whose fault is that? :)) | shakin steak | May 05, 2013 | |
| 1979 | Legos | Well, today was the Star Wars celebration, "May the Fourth (be with you)". In recognition of this, Toys 'R Us had a special between 12:00 and 2:00 where you could come in and gather the necessary pieces to build a special one-of-a-kind Lego Star Wars ship. <br><br>We took the kids there today to experience it and came away with 5 free Lego ships... and about $150 bucks worth of EXTRA stuff. Those promotional brainiacs sure know how to get you in to spend some money!<br><br>Here are some photos I took while there:<br><br><img src="/images/postImages/photo(2).JPG"><br><br>The table with boxes containing all the pieces you need for the ship. You gather them up in a tiny baggy and take them to another table to assemble the ship.<br><br><img src="/images/postImages/photo(4).JPG"><br><br>My wife assists two of my children assembling the ship. Later these can be torn apart and strewn on the floor for me to step on and wonder what the heck I was thinking.<br><br><img src="/images/postImages/photo(1).JPG"><br><br>The finished product.<br><br>The TRU employee who was overseeing the customers while they were there said he had probably 50 or so families come in for the event. <br> | Vaporman87 | May 05, 2013 | |
| 1978 | Metroid for the NES | I love it even though I was never very good at it. I used to try to make maps but they would always quickly sprawl out of control. Still, graphically, sonically, thematically, and from a design standpoint, one of the best games ever made. | shakin steak | May 04, 2013 | |
| 1977 | The Skating Rink | I went to a girl's birthday party at a roller rink in Glendale, CA. Then in 2006 my cousin had a birthday party at the same rink. I think it's still there. I think it's used for a shooting location. There was another roller rink in West Covina CA, but it closed in 1998. Or sometime around there. It got converted to a storage facility. | pikachulover | May 04, 2013 | |
| 1976 | The Skating Rink | I could hold my own on the wood back in the day. my buds and me would hit the rink now and then, load up on mt dew and try to knock each other over when the staff wasnt looking. They turned that place in to a fitness center. | AceNThaHole | May 03, 2013 | |
| 1975 | The first can of Coke | It reminds me of a soup can or an energy drink can of today. | Vaporman87 | May 03, 2013 | |
