The 80′s

The great space coaster

Rubiks Cube

Atari 2600

The Family Fued

A-Team with B.A. Barracus

Bo, Luke, Daisy, and Jessie too

All couples skate backwards

Friday the 13th, one and two

Footloose, Top Gun, The Breakfast Club

Huey, Lita, Kixx, and the Crue

Gipper and Gorbie, Ayatollah and Ollie

Friendship Beads, Jelly Bracelets, Glitter Glue

Microwaves, CDs, and VCRs

Leg warmers, buzz cuts, tight rolled jeans

Cabbage Patch, care bears, G.I. Joe

Cell Phones, CB Radio, Answering machines

Sorry Charlie, Meow Meow Meow Meow, Wheres the beef

Spiked up hair, guys with pierced ears

Simon and Simon, plus Krazy Like a Fox

Music From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears

Go-Bots, Transformers, Papa Smurf

Ron Eric Hexum, Natalie Woods, The Challenger Crew

Alf, Webster, Punky, Spicoli

Carl Lewis, Bruce Jenner, and Mary-Lou

Growing Pains, Eight Is Enough, Mr. Belvadere

Swatches, Roos, Buster Brown, Stobe Lights Blinking

BMX, Skateboards, Hacky Sack footbags

After looking back at the Eighties.. What the HELL were we thinking?
