"Uh-Oh!" on YTV... that show where they spilled slime all over you if you got the answer wrong... i miss that.

oh, and "reader beware: you choose the scare" books... they should make those books with deeper plot lines so grown ups and people that like books to have messages can read them.

To the creator:
Subway stamps were gotten rid of because of theft and forgery. People that worked there would jack a whole roll of them and sell them to kids by the bundles. This would mean profit for the employee and like 4093280 subs for $5.

Subway finally caught on and here we are. Subway stamp-less

That was such a good scam. I used to buy them on Ebay and ate footlong subs everyday for about 3 months at $1/sub.

word.  my roommate freshman year had a whole roll, but we all hated him, so within 24 hours of him telling me about it, he had only a couple subs left and i had a bunch of cash in my pocket.  he had a whole damn roll and i was doing $1 to fill a card.  that's a lot of cards.

anyway, whatever happened to terrain park jumps in Michigan?  oh yeah, some douche got hurt and sued.  what a fag.

whatever happend to rarely ever using computers, and the barely using the telephone. what happend to biking all the way to your friends house just to ask if he/she wants to hang out/play.
whatever happend to silly putty, and slap-on braclets.
slinkys
neon coloured wind breakers
the shoes that flashed everytime you took a step
the tall-can steeze pepsi cans.

and basically all of the awesome television shows we had back in the late 80's and 90's including commercials.

What ever happend to predictability?
The milk man, the paper boy, evening T.V
You miss your old familar friends, but
waiting just around the bend.

Everywhere you look (everywhere)
There's a heart (there's a heart)
A hand to hold on to.
Everywhere you look (everywhere)
There's a face of somebody who needs you.

When you're lost out there and your all alone
A light is waiting to carry you home
Everywhere you look.
