Don't Worry... I'm a Doctor

Herbal Essence Shampoo

Why did they stop making it??

Cobra-Burka
Cobra's Uniforms Look

"Ferarri Sunglasses"
A hot item in the 80's

Sunglasses that would fold up like a
Transformer...

I had a pair when I was 10
Because EVERYONE else did

I think mine were black
they were bigger than my head
Awesome.

I didn't wear them too much
I mostly just folded them and unfolded them




I love comic book ads

1986

I was 13 and I was Psyched
that "North & South Book 2" was finally coming back on TV
Back then I though Patrick Swayze was great
(now of course, I think he's a dancing, singing sprite..)

So I saved the TV Guide that came in the newspaper
and amazingly enough, I still have it

So I scanned some pages
check out what was on this week
22 years ago

BEHOLD
the SCRATCH -N-SNIFF STICKER



It's true...
Jif peanut butter
will Kick Skippy's Ass ANY DAY

I wonder how many "McDLT" styrofoam
containers are in the landfill at this very moment...!

That was a GREAT IDEA!

Pfffffft

"Fabergé Organics Shampoo"
circa 1982

This Stuff Smelled Good!
My mom would also use this shampoo
to wash our pit bull "Tigger"
- he smelled pretty!

I bet you don't have
a Wilma Weeble...

I have one
I went on a tour of HASBRO
when I was a "Brownie"
a brownie is like a girls equivalent to a cub scout
for those of you who have no clue

I was a Brownie for about a year - then I quit
I didn't dig the uniform

Anyway..
I have no memory of the tour - other than the fact we
got a Free Weeble

and yes...
I kept my Free Wilma Weeble

So what if I'm a pack rat! - I can't help myself...
