I think that because damn near everything in our current society sucks balls we should reminisce.

I miss going into the K&B on Claiborne hill in Covington and getting plastic eggs out of the spinning chicken vending machine.

“CHS 64” spray-painted on the steel girder of the Highway 190 overpass at Claiborne Hill.

I miss dreaming of Toys R Us super toy runs

Getting a video of your band on MTV was actually admirable.

You had to work for your porn so you appreciated it more

Times were exciting because each decade got cooler..each decade was unique and didnt bleed together, nor recycled.
