In Reply to: I remember when... - The Singing MT

I forgot about a lot of the things you brought up...Facts of Life...loved that show! I always wanted to be just like Blair! How about the Dukes of Hazzard...not quite what the movie made it out to be, though I haven't actually seen the movie, but have heard about it. Flipped collars on those layered polos, don't forget! Tight jeans with the bottoms tucked into our socks...how tacky were we!

It's fun to remember the *good ole days*...thanks for starting this topic...
