~This is open to one and all, if you are Canadian, American, Outter Abi Dabian does not matter~

With 6 days to go till my three month anniversary of no cigarettes, 185 days till i am 40 (WOOF!), and 420 days till...well something really excellent.....i could not help but sit here and think of things from "yester-year" thought we could show (pg rating here please)

like..................

ps/2 balled mice

Anyone Remember Cantel Wireless (now called Rogers Wireless)

Pocket PC (what we used before the iphone/ipod/ipad/iwish apple came up with something better

How about the Original Black Berry

 

[renthepen]

Yellow Pages

Portable Television...

Discman...

...and the most obsolete of them all...

What was called a "cigarette"

These things were actually made of paper instead of metal and were burning for real! No LED! How stupid is that?

My 3 favourite toys from the 70's

 

[chagrin]

Aww, someone posted the brick phone. I used to use one of those, though it wasn't mine .. I'm not that old.

I have a love/hate relationship with this video;

Must be nostalgia night for me,
There's a whole thread on Talkbass in the same vein.
Anybody remember playing Mousetrap or The Haunted House games?
I also used to build/play with/destroy AMT and Revell model kits.

You know what is sad about this? Is when i seen the floppy disk i immediately started wondering if it was the double density, double sided version, and where i left mine as i had some images and text files to move

What is worse is all those things shown i used except the gull wing door car....i want one of those....how sad am i?

A blast from a "super" past.




A childhood memory of mine (and one for the Quebec members)

EDIT: Not quite sure how these VHS tapes ended up in this post.

 

[WolfeReign]

~coughs~ this is from my silver surfer parents in law (who are super cool and told me the ideas)

Kind of Curious is this was due to the Space race or not?

I cringed here, not at public gullabilty but how few details the scientists released or the denial in simply saying "we do not know that much"

Again people where going on the fact they were being told it was safe

danger!!! danger!!! bad jokes will happen soon danger!!

[fourtytwo]

The funny thing is, i'm going through all of those pics and saying to myself, "Got it, got it, got it..."

As a matter of fact, I have one of these that I am restoring right now.


And one of these,

waiting to be gutted and built into my next custom PC.
It should be big enough for a micro ATX motherboard if I take out the CRT and put in an LCD from a netbook as a secondary display. Likely have to liquid cool it...
