Zchi4Life...when you mentioned school houserocks...i had to go back and listen to the CD's....i have the set....


Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up words and phrases and clauses.
Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
I got three favorite cars
That get most of my job done.
Conjunction Junction, what's their function?
I got "and", "but", and "or",
They'll get you pretty far.

"And":
That's an additive, like "this and that".
"But":
That's sort of the opposite,
"Not this *but* that".
And then there's "or":
O-R, when you have a choice like
"This or that".
"And", "but", and "or",
Get you pretty far.

Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up two boxcars and making 'em run right.
Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice.
Hey that's nice!
Dirty but happy, digging and scratching,
Losing your shoe and a button or two.
He's poor but honest, sad but true,
Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

LOL....I haven't heard anyone refer to anything as "the junk" in a LONG time either. There's a SHR website also. When I get home, I'll post the address.

Girl, I hear "the junk" that all the time! My friends and I are so old school, it's too funny! You'd think we were stuck back in the day somewhere!

Girl, you hit a serious nerve here!!! I never caught the original airings, but I watched the reruns of it on BET. I LOVED IT!!!! I wish they still ran it, it was definitely a favorite of mine!!

Yes, I remember Benny Hill!! I loved that show! And WW was the Bomb!

I also liked The Jeffersons, Good Times, and the Wonder Years.

And: Amen, Golden Girls (those old ladies were too funny! "Picture it, Sicily 1920.."). And does anyone remember that soap opera Generations?

Favs:
Scooby Doo (hated scrappy and the ones w/o fred and velma) by the way- why was fred and daphne always pairing up? hmmm...
different world(I wished my college would have been more like that)
saved by the bell (hated the college years) I must admit slater was the cutie, but zack was a tramp. he dated every main female character on the show.
different strokes, amen, golden girls, she-ra, fat albert, Mr.T cartoons (and the cereal), charlie's angels, wonder woman, superfriends (wonder twin powers activate!),
kids, inc., dallas, knots landing, dynasty, jeffersons, good times, alice (flo with her "kiss my grits"), thundarr the barbarian.

I'll have to look at my tv guide to find more. Kids today don't know what they've missed.

c&c1913, did you say She-Ra, 'cuz I have always personally identified with her. It's like I was She-Ra, Princess of Power. *sigh* Those were the days . . .

Of course, I did have to go to bed at 9pm, so I guess those days weren't all that great . . .

mwedzi,

I had the she-ra coloring book, cut-outs (the paper ones where you can change their clothes) **Does anyone rememeber those types of "paper" dolls?**
I can't tell you how many times I watched the video where she and he-man find out they were sister and brother!

Wooo, just had a Good Times rush. Entertainment TV (cable) just had a special on the cast of Good Times. It's amazing how much Michael and JJ have changed. Thelma basically looks the same, though.
