Cactiofdoomwoe You know your old if you remember popples. Also if you do the I remember when gas cost less then a dollar a gallon rant. Or you hate it when someone uses chat speak in real life... OMG I loved Popples!! My other fave toy was Sweet Secrets. ^_^ You know you're old when bazooka cost 5 cents and when you went to the library, you had to physically look through the card catalog to look for the book you wanted, or when Oregon Trail was the biggest game on the computer in school and you had to rush to the computer to get that game or you were stuck with Math Munchers. sweatdrop I was looking up Oregon trail online and found the website where you can download the program and play it. It's great!! http://classicgaming.gamespy.com/View.php?view=GameMuseum.Detail&id=266

My first encounter with computers in school is having to fill out tests that would later go into punch-card readers in the fifth grade. An apple ][ would have been an extravagance (and probably useless since it had just come out and nothing was written for it yet stare )

You know you're old if you remember when Disney and 4Krap didn't dominate Saturday mornings if you didn't have cable TV, and know that the Power Rangers actually used to be watchable.
(I have DirecTV, but I do feel sorry for people who don't have cable/satellite for the above reason)
