we're all over the hill....

Re: 80's & 90's

I'm such a loser I'm going to CORRECT something from there.

The book is called, 'Are You There G-d, It's Me, Margaret', not 'Hey G-d'.

As for the rest, I fit into about 99% of it (I wasn't a big Ninja Turtles fan, and I never thought He-Man and She-Ra should hook up, as Adam and Aurora were BROTHER AND SISTER).

Man, I AM a loser....

Re: 80's & 90's

Wow, now i feel like such a geek!

Re: 80's & 90's

LOL I just copied and paste. Good Call on picking that one up. I know about the old thing I am going to be 31 shortly and think where the heck did all the time go???
