1.How old were you in 1980? 14

2. How old were you in 1989? 23, if I can still add

3. Were you a Toys R' Us kid? nope. Not even cable, or toys that needed batteries.

4. Did you watch Transformers? No, I watched Speed Racer, Jonny Quest, and Josie and the Pussycats. Groovy Ghoulies, anyone?

5. Did you see E.T. on the big screen? Hell yes!

6. Did you own a Lite Bright? No, damn it, and I'm scarred for life.

7. Who is your Favorite Golden Girl? Bea Arthur, but for "Maude"!

8. When someone says " Who you gonna call?" Only Bernie would think to answer with bukkake. Shit. I'm gonna call Bill Murray because he's HOT.

9.What was your favorite toy? My imagination and the tree fort down the street. Oh yeah, liked my dad's Korean-war entrenching tool, as well. You could dig good ponds for the creek on the beach with that thing.

10. Did you have a Pogo Ball? I had a Hippity-Hop.

11. Did you listen to New Kids on the Block? No. I listened to The Cars, The Police, Queen, Manhattan Transfer, the Hi-Los, Tom Petty, Pat Benatar, and tons of New Wave.

12. What New Kid did you have a crush on? Uh, yuck.

13. Did you play M.A.S.H? Don't know what that is. But if anyone wanted to know what M*A*S*H character I wanted to be, it was Hot Lips. (Some would say I'm close.)

14. Did you watch The Care Bears? Uh, ewwww.

15. Did you have Jelly bracelets? No, and not those damn jelly shoes either.

16. Did you have a charm necklace and/or bracelet? I had a silver one since birth, that my sister lost, and then when we were all grown up she bought me another one.

17. Did you own a glo-worm? No, I babysat kids that owned Glo-Worms.

18. Did you ever own a slap bracelet? Um, no, I babysat kids that had slap bracelets.

19. The Breakfast Club or Sixteen Candles? Breakfast Club. Now get me my turkey pot pie, bitch!

20. Did you have a crazy hair style? Does a spiked mullet count? It was effing RANCID.

21. What was your first bike? Blue Raleigh.

22. Name one thing you still own from your childhood? I have tons of shit from childhood. Too much to say.

23. Did you have a Cabbage Patch Kid? Refer to the questions that I answered with "I babysat kids that . . . "


24. Did you dress like Madonna? Again, see above "I babysat . . . " commentary.

25. Rainbow Brite or Strawberry Shortcake? Holly Hobby, REPRESENT, yo!

26. Did you watch Miami Vice? That's a guy show. I normally watch guy shows. But that Miami Vice thing was just dumb. I was too busy watching "Moonlighting", anyway.

27. Did you own a pair of Jelly Shoes? See #15.

28. Did you own a Trapper Keeper? No, it was straight-up Pee-Chees for me. Didn't you ever draw the toilet behind the catcher, or the basketball player getting stabbed? Required middle-school artwork!

29. Atari or Nintendo? My friend down the street had Pong. We weren't allowed to have video games, not because there was anything inherently bad about them, but because they were, according to my dad, too expensive. He had a mean frugal streak.

30. Did you play Pac-Man? Hell yes. My first job was at the roller rink, so there was plenty of that going on.

31. Which was better JEM or Barbie and the Rockers? Josie and the Pussycats could whip all their asses with one hand tied behind each band member's back.

32. He-Man or She-Ra? Conan.

33. What movie scared you the most? The Day After. I've never been the same since. Thanks, ABC.

34. Did you try to dance like Michael Jackson? NEVER!!!
