I miss playing high school football.

Everything about it, even the ridiculously hard practices Coach Miller used to put us thru (it worked - 2 time CIF San Diego Champs!!). I miss team meals, the bus rides, being jocked by cheerleaders and praised by parents. Fucking awesome...we walked on water!

I also miss real TV, not this reality shit we get now. Where's Cheers and the Wonder Years?

And Record stores.

And Firefly.

And my Grandpa.

And my brother.

And video arcades.

And dollar night at the movies.

And only having to worry about what I'm wearing to school tomorrow.

I some places I guess they still do. Those places are not in America.

I wish I could find the article again but they delivered in the early 90's (I think it ended around 94) in some palces.

1. Almost every cartoon AND live action show by Filmation.

2. McDonald's fries when they were cooked in beef shortening and tasted way better.

3. Pro-Wrestling terrotories (especially NWA/Joe Crockett Promotion).

4. Video game systems like the Atari 2600, Colecovision, Nintendo Entetainment System, & Sega Genesis.

When "ho's" where gardening tools

When people wrote music and didn't string beats together.

I miss commercials and advertisements that actually used the words MERRY CHRISTMAS.

I miss penny candy.

I miss being able to wander and find a cherry tree with actual cherries growing from it and you could just eat, and eat....

I miss those little charms on my keychain, they were too adorable, I had tons!

I miss being able to wear the highest heels ALL day long. I walked every where in spiked heels, even in the snow.

I miss the old archades and needing quarters to play.

I miss the drive ins and I miss old radio.
