I had a remote control motor ball when I was younger. Sadly it didn’t live after being sprayed by the garden hose.

Twister beads were popular around 1983. I remember having beads in almost every color and twisting them to match my outfit each day. You could do different designs depending on what colors you chose and how you twisted.

Don’t you remember going to gym waiting for that hungover coach to break out the the Omni-Kin Ball. It was a win back then when we would all play volleyball in kindergarten and most likely get slammed by it (which was most of the time me).But now we have to play with rules that just suck out all the fun out of it.I mean who wants to stay in place waiting for the ball to come to you.Where’s the energy in that.

The Adventures of T-Rex was an co-production between Japanese and American animated series that aired in syndication from 1992 to 1993 in North America. The show featured five musical Tyrannosaurus brothers who played to sold-out crowds as a vaudeville group while also secretly fighting crime as “T-REX,” masterminded by Professor Edison. The show, an American/Japanese coproduction between DIC and well-known anime producer Kitty Film (Urusei Yatsura, Ranma 1/2, Yawara!) lasted only one season.

Possibly the greatest hip-hop album of all time by hands down the greatest hip-hop group of all time. November 9, 1993, The Wu-Tang Clan came on the scene and put New York City back as number #1 in hip-hop. Even people who don’t actively listen to rap or hip-hop know the lyrics of half of the songs on this album. It is something you think of when you think 90’s music. Wu-Tang Clan aint nuttin to f**k wit!

JNCO, pronounced “Jenco”, is a Los Angeles, California based clothing company specializing in boys and men’s jeans. Founded in 1985 by Milo and Jacques Revah, JNCO is an acronymn, short for: “Judge None, Choose One”. The brand gained recognition in the early 1990s with its boys ultra-wide straight legged denim jeans featuring elaborate pocket logos and a unique street look. This street look was popularized throughout the 90s starting in Los Angeles and working its way nation-wide. JNCO also manufactures T-shirts, khaki pants and other clothing articles. Unlike similar California based apparel manufacturers, JNCO manufactured most of its products in the United States, mainly at S.M.J. American Manufacturing Co., a 200,000-square-foot (19,000 m2) operation also owned by Milo and Jacques Revah. This quote was taken from an archive of the JNCO website from June 29, 1998:[1] “Since 1991,JNCO has delivered the hippest denim jeans and phat styles to satisfy the demands of even the most hardcore hip-hop, skater and music oriented sub-cultures.”

I remember this game vividly. Circa 1964. It was so worn out that the box was flattened, the cards all dog-eared, and it would hardly stand up, so I used cellophane tape on it. I was a kid who loved board games more than any other toy. Tragically, I was an only child. That didn’t stop me from playing though, and if I ever did get a willing participant, I was on Cloud 9+

Teen Angel was a TV show that aired on ABC’s TGIF Fridays in 1997. Starring Corbin Allred and Mike Damus.

Mike Damus’ character, Marty DePolo, dies after finding and eating a 6 month old hamburger. He hangs around his Best friend Steve Beauchamp (Corbin Allred) as his guardian angel of sorts. But he is very dimwitted and doesn’t really do a very good job watching out for him. Very Funny show, but only lasted 17 episodes.

As someone who spent part of my childhood growing up in England, I remember this anti-piracy warning at the beginning of just about every VHS tape I purchased or rented during the mid to late 1990’s in the UK. I think its a win, just brings back so many memories…

In 1983, the Menudo signed a 6-year multi-million dollar contract with RCA International. Their American fan base grew, especially among the young, as evidenced by “Menudo on ABC”, a series of four-minute music spots that aired during the Fall 1983 season of the American Broadcasting Company’s youth-oriented Saturday morning programming block[1]. They also sang the theme song for ABC’s Rubik, the Amazing Cube and performed regular music videos during Rubik’s half-hour show. During this year, they also released their Spanish album A Todo Rock.
