    I had the pac-man bed sheets. I watched "Head of the Class" weekly.

    Empire Strikes Back sheets, and matching curtains > all. Sadly, I think they were eventually used as drop-cloths.

    When I was a kid I not only had the Empire Strikes Back sheets I had the wall paper. The guy that bought that house (20 years later) was a star wars freak and was going to turn that room into his office.

    I was born in the mid-80s, grew up in Sebring, LOVED Nascar as a child (that has changed). I had Daytona 500 bedspread/sheets, Cole Trickle (from Days of Thunder) pajamas....but they were pretty wicked it was like an actual race suit, but pajamas with Mellow Yellow sponsor tags and all.

    I didn't really hate the show, just the kid who played Jamie. Ugh! I was only 8 but I wanted to beat him.

    Anyone think he looks a little like Fergie?

    I had a set of the Star Wars sheets/bedspread too.

    The pitiful thing was that I was in my 30s at the time....

    This isn't technically an 80's thing since it was recorded in 1978, but its pretty fkn cool. The fact that its introduced by Bernie Taupin must have chapped his butt pretty bad.

    Everyone missed possibly the greatest 80's syndicated show of all. There was something for everyone, Chachi, a future Baywatch lifeguard, the great Willie Aames, and my favorite, Josie Davis.

    I like how they were able to name his best friend Boner and never take the easy laugh.

    I have to disagree but I did have quite a few Construx in addition to me Legos. Never had any Erector sets though, and K'nex came out too late for me.

    I guess we should just go have a glass of prune juice and make sure our AARP membership is up to date. Thanks.

    Oh...and remind me to yell at those kids to, "GET OFF MY LAWN!!"
