Another Fan Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 As a kid I loved the DARE program in school. It was cool to me hearing a cop talk about all the dangers in drugs, just say no….. He was a cool guy from what I recall. I’ll just leave it as I think the program was a bust overall looking back. But i still think fondly of it. Anyone could relate?

I have third degree burns from this hot take. Three of my favorite bands. To answer the question I grew up loving to collect tapes and then eventually DVDs. I have very fond memories of going to Suncoast or Media Play with some extra money. Needless to say those haven’t aged well… Edited July 30, 2021 by Rockpile233 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alice In Chains on the other hand is absolutely brilliant and gets better and better. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrW Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 When I got seriously into listening to music in the mid-70s, I began to worry how far my favorite LPs would last; frequent playing tended to increase background noises. Thus, I got an AKAI reel-to-reel recorder and taped my LP collection. Using the tapes to listen to the music worked well for a while, but after several years I had to realize that that the sound quality of the tapes had deteriorated faster than that of the (now rarely used) LPs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all of us being sports fans to a certain degree, ESPN was the go to place for information back in the day. I remember watching the top 10 plays every day. Now that there's so many options, they're irrelevant. Edited July 31, 2021 by RaoulDuke79 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 2 hours ago, Mark Vader said: ESPN I thought it would be impossible to ***** up ESPN juggernaut of the 80s and 90s- but Disney did the impossible. I had an ESPN 2 hat that was the envy of my buddies back in the day. I wouldn't wear that today if you paid me ***** you Disney for ***** up ESPN! I'll add MTV I have a great idea to pitch to executives- a 24 hour station that plays sports highlights and live sporting events. And a 24 hour station that plays music videos and concerts its so obvious to me- both would be huge successes today imo and while we are at it, a 24 hour history channel that only plays historical documentaries am I genius or are TV execs that stupid? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talley56 Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Mariah Carey, man did I ever have a crush on her back in the 90s. I don't even think I liked her songs, I just watched her videos so I could look at her. Now, I don't think I've paid the slightest bit of attention to her in decades.

Now everyone does it. btw skip proof my a** 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
