What 70s fads did you involve in, wear, etc?
Each of us kids got a Smiling Face bank, mood rings, ummmm
Banana seat bike - I made a chopper out of one of them..cutting forks off another bike and sticking them over my own forks...and I had playing cards on my spokes held by clothespins.
No bell bottom jeans or Pet Rocks.
Nite Brite games and those little ovens that you could cook in.
Creepy Crawlers, GI Joe and Action Jackson..plus the Planet of the Apes figures.
Hot wheels sets, Electric Football men with the little green bases and the vibrating field.
My brother had a Verti-bird helicopter.
We used to strip my sister's barbi dolls and draw tattoos on them.
Yeah...
Those were the days...Please pray for our area as we deal with the oil spill-

I wore a POW bracelet for my friend's dad.
Choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color. Choosing your socks by their character makes no sense, and choosing your friends by their color is unthinkable.

Dr.Zaius, I had half of that stuff in the 90's...

My sister had those striped socks with the individual toes..forgot what they called them.
We had that Koogle peanut butter.
Space dust..my uncle was a thief and used to steal tons of it for us..space rocks..etc.
Those Green Machines and Big Wheels..we never had money for that but the spoiled cuban boy next door did.
Hula Hoops...I was good at that and those yo yos...cool man..cool.....
That Whamo red ball that supposedly bounced really high.
Stratego came out...can't believe Fox Mulder played it with Samantha before the aliens took her.
Ouija board..silly as the pet rock stuff.
Cox airplanes and cars...we put alcohol in one of the planes..it went around three or four times then caught fire.Please pray for our area as we deal with the oil spill-

I loved my banana seat bike and my Loves Baby Soft perfume and my lip gloss and my subscription to Tiger Beat and my red, white and blue stripped bell bottomed hip huggers and my Jimmy McNichol poster and his TV show Califonia Fever...I still remember the lyrics to the theme song...
Maybe it's the water
Maybe it's the air
Maybe it's the sunshine that get's in your hair
Maybe it's the ladies
or the clothes that they wear
I don't know, I don't care
I just got to be the-e-ere....
You get the picture, I do not need to go on.
