14. I loved the Rock-'Em, Sock-'Em Robots!

I was always blue and my brother was always red. (Not so anymore; my brother is true-blue all the way through nowadays. ;-) )

And we both loved the Evel Knievel doll and vehicles. We had the motorcycle, the Snake River Canyon Rocketcycle, the low-slung racing chopper, and I don't remember what-all. It was a blast!

18. those are cool toys?

In my days you had to have a Josh Randell Mares Leg Winchester, with spring loaded cartridges. If you were really cool you had the Paladin Peace Maker set with optional Belt Buckle Derringer.
Have Gun Will Travel.

and all of the outdoors:)

[TX-RAT]

21. And real skate boards were made out of a 1x4 and a pair of old skates

Remember those steel wheels, they'd stop on a BB
