For us old folks... What do you miss?

Recording mix tapes off the radio was awesome!!

 

[crimzy]

Original Atari with Pitfall and Double Dribble was cool too...

Star Wars game at the arcade
Impossible Mission on the Commodore 64

I still own a cassette recorder...so mix tapes aren't a problem. I own a bunch of old school video game systems, so that isn't a problem.....
Hmmmm....I know, I miss movies that are actually good..............not this remade or rebooted crap..........And Star Wars movies worth seeing.

 

[reefraff]

The Beatles, the Doors and Jimi Hendrix. John Wayne, Johnny Carson, Asteroids and Pong. (Yeah, I am that old)
A proper playlist on a iPod destroys a cassette mix tape.

You can't write "slow mix" on the outside and give it to the girl you "go" with in sixth grade...

LOL......Dan and I went to the movies every Tuesday, now he's gone...So I just wait for it to come out on video in a few weeks. There isn't anything I'm willing to dish out that kind of money to see. I have Netflix too.
