Childhood Nostalgia.

I loved Stompers 4x4. Put one in my hair when I was about 5 and had to have it cut out. Good times.

I liked some Thundarr too. Anyone remember that cartoon?

 

I loved Stompers too. We used to mod them with 9 volt batteries, 6 times the power 6 times the fun!

 

Loved skee ball! I used to go to Funspot every summer. Largest arcade in the world!

There's a resort island off SoCal called Catalina where a bunch of families used to go over several summers. Numerous arcades all along the harbor promenade, ice cream, the best miniature gold course in the world, world class snorkeling and fishing. Kids could just run wild because the town was only a mile square and only commercial vehicles are allowed expect for residents who can have golf carts.

Fantasy fucking island.

 

Alright what the hell is this..

 

I loved this show when I was a kid. I used to record these on VHS tapes.

Tempest!!!

I grew up on video games. Had the Intellivision when I was 6. Still have my old Atari 2600 somewhere.

Haven't been to Funspot in a couple years now, I'm due for a trip.

 

Tempest!

 

I remember getting brought home by the cops for curfew... Fuck I wasn't scared of the cops I was scared of my dad!!! Is that the way it goes anymore?!!!

 

Dunno but there is a teenager in my area scared of me. He threw a bottle on my lawn and I saw it inside my house..went outside, asked him to pick it up, and he glared at me. I yelled at him he can do it himself or I can grab the hair on his head and seat of his pants, turn him upside down, and make him do it. Haha
