Lately some weird phrases from our youth have been popping into my head for no reason:
i been bit by a balligator!
boomerang-toomerang-zoomerang!
fumunda cheese
These are things I haven't even thought of in years. I think I'm going crazy!
Ooooo! I also remember Starcade, break dance club, and computer class with Craig.
And putting on little plays & puppet shows for Mom & Dad. Like the Halloween Safety one where the eye holes on the puppet's Halloween mask were too small, and Ken drove by in the Barbie corvette and almost ran him over. Remember that?
What other things from our "growing up years" can you remember?

Coming home to find the kids who were suppose to be 'babysitting' their younger siblings running through the house with the lights out and cottonballs over their eyes chasing the little kids who were screaming in 'terror'.
And five kids in the closet playing rocketship with the cover off the lamp when they were suppose to be getting ready for church. And Carrie sitting down on the cord, pulling lamp down on her face getting a second degree burn from the light bulb.

How about Mark Amarant?
Cachi? Regala?
Isn't there something about a dust devil on the way to (or from) school in Miami? I remember a kid in it, and papers flying around.

What about those 4th of July parades down the street? And Mark Amarant running after you every time you rode your bike?
And Chris across the street? Rememaber when his chickens froze and you and Craig had to go running over there to see them?
Remember when you kids, Joel Michael and Joelle, and the little girl next door (can't remember her name) scribbled with crayon all over their house and we made you scrub it off?
7:36 PM
OH. OH. Remember when that house burned that you use to pass on the way to school?
And then the time those six people were murdered two blocks from where we lived?
And remember those little watermelon that use to grow wild down at the end of the street?
And then there was "Black Mark" . . .

I don't remember coloring on someone's house, but I do remember everything else.
I also remember calling someone a Burnt Cracker because they called me a White Cracker. (I almost got beat up for that one!)

I also remember eating at Sambo's.

Don't forget Land of the Lost!
And then there was Mary Huggins!

Good ol' WitchiePoo and HR Puffinstuff along with Jimmy and his magic flute.
And then there was He-man and the masters of the universe, Thunder cats . . . and on and on!

Sigmond and the sea monsters was another show.
What about those floresent clothes?
And Cabbage Patch Kids, Strawberry Shortcake, Monchichi, Rainbow Bright, My Little Pony, Care Bears and Transformers . . .
And the Commadore 64, our first computer, and having to TYPE in all the games before you could play them.
