I miss Stretch Armstrong and (I've mentioned I was a Tomboy) the erector set.

I miss the roller rink and the agony of wondering whether or not someone was going to ask you to do the couples' skate and when they did making them go backwards.

and waiting for them to play "School's Out" by Alice Cooper so you could skate in a circle, fist pumping, yelling, "..no more teachers! No more Books!..."

We'll I miss that anyway. Now my wish came true, no more teachers no more books... kismet?

I think the slow song for roller skating was "reunited" by (I think) Peaches and Herb..

I miss hippity hops, I had a red one but I really wanted a Mickey Mouse one (with the handle being Micky's head); I miss Light Bright (colored pegs stuck into a monitor with a light bulb); and most of all cereal with toy prizes inside.... Captain Crunch (Peanut Butter) was my favorite. Now the cereal is just a bit too colorful, its kind of freaks me out. Take a gander at Trix.... Does anyone remember Quisp? the space guy in a blue box. The cereal was great! I cant find it anywhere.
