things that you thought of before it became popular Any ideas you had in your head before they eventually became popular? Stuff you asked yourself "I wish there was...", "they need to...", and then later on it happens, confirming u were ahead of the curve?
I wanna hear them! | |

I don't know when CDs arrived in Scotland but I remember listening to an ABBA CD as early as 1981. In 1981 access to first generation players was very limited with infant markets for CD technology only truly created in Europe and Japan in 1982 (and a year larter in the US). The real commercial availability of discs did not begin until later in the decade. http://www.oneoffcd.com/i...torycd.cfm . ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. | |

I don't know when CDs arrived in Scotland but I remember listening to an ABBA CD as early as 1981. I think CD's first became commercially available in 1980, although it was another few years before most people heard of them. I know it was about 1986 the first time I saw one. I "invented" inline skates (rollerblades) - I used to be a skater in my teens, and thought wouldn't it be great to have skates with all the wheels in a row just like an ice skate blade. Then some clever sod went and invented them years after I'd given up skating. Oh well. Lemmy, Bowie, Prince, Leonard. RIP. | |

I thought that turtlenecks were cool before they came back in style around 1986-7. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

This happens to me often. It happens with people too!
For instance... I was checking out Flex when was he was just a back up dancer for Salt-n-Pepa. I thought he was hot in their "Push It" video. Although he probably had about 2 seconds of screen time, that's all it took for me to notice him. Now, he's got his own show on the UPN (or is it the WB?). AND he's married to singer Shanice Wilson. How unfair is that?! I SAW HIM FIRST! | |
