Once Upon A Time, You Needed BIG Hair To Move Those Muscle Cars

by Deanna aka Pop Tart

Also, it was important that the bows in your ridiculously big hair match the paint on the autos you were selling; like the orange of this Dodge Swinger 340.

Mom Hated Helping Timmy With His Hunting

by Deanna aka Pop Tart

She knew a moving target would help improve his skills, but, well, Timmy was only learning… Did she have to stand so close? And why wasn’t Timmy’s dad holding the target himself, or helping Timmy aim, rather than aiming the camera?

We Just Called ‘Em Shorts

by Deanna aka Pop Tart

OK, and sometimes we called them “jogging shorts” if we wanted to specify between the cut-offs and the (admittedly horrid) terrycloth shorts (and rompers). But nowadays the kids (laughingly) call them “dolphin shorts.” Which I completely don’t get.

I don’t get the “dolphin” part, and I don’t get the laughing either. In fact, I stopped watching basketball when the players started wearing those long baggy things that resembled baggy golf knickers. B-ball so lost the sexy then.
