Best show: Facts of Life
Best actress: Lisa Whelchel
Best Band: Poison
Best reason why: Because they had that video where Lisa was in that skimpy little outfit rocking out with C.C. Deville while the lazers and strobe lights were going off and....wasn't that the video??

Best video: the one with Lisa in that Poison video...I think...

Toy - Atari, Legos, Star Wars toys
Memory - When my nephew was born in July of 1985 or when I was in 6th grade in 1984. I had some really cool teachers. Other than that I really don't have too many good memories from that decade.

movie: Ferris Bueller's Day Off

tv show: The Facts of Life, Diff'rent Strokes, Archie Bunker's Place

song: White Wedding, Rebel Yell, Flesh for Fantasy

toy; the rubix cube

memory: Okay, this is weird because I don't really remember that much from the 80s. I was born in 84, so can't really remember all that much from then. However, I did go through my little 80s period where I absolutely loved the 80s. No, I didn't start dressing in 80s fashion, I just loved the music.

Okay, that just brought back one of my memories. I liked Falco. I desperately wanted the Falco 3 cd. I couldn't find it in the store, but that still didn't discourage me. I just kept bugging my parents for them to find the cd for me. Never did find Falco 3. I have the Remix Hit Collection. It's okay, considering that's the only Falco cd I could find. Still, they really screwed up the songs by doing these long remixes and it just spoils the whole song. Yeah, so when am I getting my Geek Award for admiting the whole thing?

Ah, you mentioned a Tears for Fears song, Karly. I have a few TFF cds. Where did Curt and Roland go? I know they split up and Curt formed another group, but I heard they got back together and were gonna release more stuff as TFF. What happened? Was that just a rumor or did they really release more stuff?

I have no clue...I love them. They had some hits, but Everybody Wants To Rule The World was the biggest. I also heard that rumor, that they would be getting back together. But I guess it never happened...? Too bad, too. They were great.

Yeah, they were great. Hmm, maybe I need to browse around online and see if I see any news about a new TFF cd. I'm sure they have quite a few websites about them. Let me check.
