Does anyone remember Apple Slice soda? and Apple flavored kool aid? The soda looked like beer but it did have an artifical apple taste to it I kinda liked. I was mad when they stopped selling it. :mad:

I had the Barbie remote controlled car too! I also had the Barbie Plaza (older toy that i saw a commercial for it in B/W so that should tell you how old it was)

Did anyone get a doll called Pretty Curls? She came with setting lottion and you could put these teeny rollers in her thick hair (that never stayed). She was my second fave (and last doll) next to baby that away....they were so cute.

Speaking of the 80's...
 

Why did my Employer give all of us Company Slinkies(sp) and I have been playing with this thing all day?

What was the slinky theme song, my co-worker and I were trying to figure that out?

Correction re: The Letter People
 

My error (albeit WAY after the fact).

The Letter People was not produced by the Ohio Dept. of Education, but actually produced by KETC TV 9 in St. Louis, MO (and Abrams & Co. Publishers).

For more info on The Letter People, please click HERE

For more info on any of those instructional TV shows we used to watch in class on filmstrips or at home on sick days, click HERE

OMG, Remember those Saturday morning ABC PSAs?
 

How many of you remember watching cartoons on ABC and saw those 60 second clips for:

The Bod Squad
Time for Timer
The Chopper
Dough Nuts
O.G. Readmore (in today's lingo sounds like a gangsta for literacy)
H.E.L.P (Dr. Henry's Emergency Lessons for People/Hip Harry Etiquette Lessons for People/High Class Hudson's Earning Lessons for People)

Well now you can see them again and reminisce away.

Here's the link:

Education, 80s style

More Saturday Morning treats!!!
 

I found a link that has virtually EVERY cartoon theme song, past and present, Saturday morning or weekday for your enjoyment.

I mean, after 25 years I could finally sing again the theme to the "Kid Super Power Hour with Shazam" which I thought was one of the BEST Saturday morning cartoons out there.

So here is the link. Sing along and enjoy!

Here is the front page of the site:

THANK YOU!!!!! You don't know how happy you made me!! I was up until about 3 am over the weekend listening and watching those clips!! It took me back to my childhood!!! Thanks sooooo much!!

Re: Re: OMG, Remember those Saturday morning ABC PSAs?
 

You're quite welcome 9dstpm, and I was glad to do it.

BTW, did you check out the ToonTracker.com site for all the Saturday (and weekday) morning cartoon theme songs? If not, you should (see above link). ABC PSAs without the Saturday morning theme songs would be like cornflakes without the milk. ;)
