Looks like Kevin DIllon and Richard Ramirez's love child.

Was 16 at the time and can't imagine blowing the money that way but sorry for partying eh?
I would have traded in my 1973 Gran Torino and gotten a sweeter ride.

In the 80s and 90s from sun up to sun down you could go anywhere. Just be home when the street lights come on.
.at 10 I was riding miles away on my bike to the mall.

Lucky the cops got him. Because this sounds a lot like how the plot for No Country for Old Men got started.

today kids have a disease for attention. They would have gotten tik tok and posted the money and stayed in their parent's room all day. I feel bad for today's society.

Well that definitely trumps the 100 dollar bill I found one evening walking up to the movie theater with my GF. shite that paid for the movie and dinner afterwards with change to spare.

When I was an area supervisor for Wendy's (many years ago), the Lubbock store manager's wife stole a deposit out of the safe (her H left it on daylock in violation of the rules). She bought a TransAm or Firebird with the money, I think it was used but nice. A store review with about four of us was in progress when his wife arrived at the store in the car. She was fat and very annoying but her husband was a good guy. He wasn't fired, she had to return the car for the money. I don't remember whether the company prosecuted her. The franchise President was with us when she drove up.

It was the 80's.


They used to run a PSA during the nightly news reminding people that they had kids.

Easily a young Kevin Dillon from the 1988 Blob remake

Amazing they did all of that for $3 Grand...

The 80's were awesome...


I think back to my high school days in the late 70s. One of my friends showed up in a brand new Camaro. Sticker was still on it $6,000.

We were like damn! six thousand dollars Dan! May as well have been $6m to us then.
