OT: YOU KNOW YOU GREW UP IN THE 80's or early 90's IF.....

Mines 3/20 73 first day of spring. And I was married on 7-4-92. We did it with a bang. Had stars and stripes and all.

That would be fun! I swear, until I was about 12 I though it was all for me! My 13th birthday party was actually a float in our local parade!

This year I got tickets for the Oakland Athletics v. San Francisco Giants baseball game. My 2 favorite teams playing eachother on MY DAY! My and 42,000 of my closest friends, 25 of whom are actually people I know! The game is already sold out! In April!

Well, I was mostly and adult in the 80's, so I bought my own thing to bunch up my shirts on the side, to match my side ponytail...and yes, I did just sing "shot through the heart" and said the Willis line in my head...still do say it occasionally! Thanks for the laugh, Arleen

:) You're welcome :)

ROFL!!! This is SO ME! So many things on here I remember...pound puppies, ninja turtles, my little ponies...oh man..My daughter's watching my old Care Bear's tape right now! LOL. Thanks for this, Tabitha, really fun!

Shot through the heart, and you're to blame..You give love a bad name! :P

*sings.... "can't touch this... dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun... can't touch this!" *

I loved that song. Also like Vanilla Ice.

Ice Ice Baby....

hey remember Devo? those guys with the flowerpots on thier heads??? LOLOL

Do they have fireworks too? The Dodgers always do if they are home on the

4th. They even let you sit out on the field to watch them, I think that is one reason that game always sells out fast.

I remember Devo. I remember I wanted to see Duran Duran but my parents wouldn't let me. My first Concert was Tears For Fears. I also loved the Cure and Style Coucil, OMD, New Order and Depeche Mode. Like a Virgin.......

My son went to a Braves game for his birthday one year, and they put his name and "Happy Birthday" up on the big matrix board. We only had to call ahead by 2 weeks and fax in the request. I got a great picture toscrap. Maybe you could look into that!! Arleen
