- You even owned roller skates with metal wheels.
- You thought Gopher from Love Boat was cute. (Admit it!)
- You had nightmares after watching Fantasy Island.
- You had rubber boots for rainy/snowy days - remember Moon Boots (you then advanced to Duck Shoes in the 80s)?
- You had either a "bowl cut" or a "pixie", not to mention the "Dorothy Hamill" because your mom was sick of braiding your hair. How traumatic when people thought you were a boy.

- It was a big event in your household each year when the"Wizard of Oz" would come on TV. Your mom would break out the popcorn and sleeping bags!
- You even asked your Magic-8 Ball the question: "Who will I marry...Shawn Cassidy, Leif Garrett, or Rick Springfield?"
- You completely wore out your Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Fame soundtrack albums.
- You tried to do lots of arts and crafts things like yarn, gimp and Popsicle stick God's Eyes or those weird potholders made on a plastic loom.
