Haha... it can't be that huge of a gap. You're what, a couple years older than I am? Putting you around 32 or so?
Forgive me if I forgot or something.
You've seen the posts I've been making. You understand.

I'm turning 34 in two months. It isn't a big gap, but it's funny how it becomes huge when you start talking about toys.

Makes sense.
Although I may have been at a slight disadvantage due to my toys being second hand. My toy hay days were probably yesterdays at the time. Fortunately, sticks don't really go out of style, and I could sharpen those sons of bitches like nobody's business.

Actually, I just got reminded of cave men...
I'm done failing for the night. Off I go. :D

yeah I loved that sticks could be anything you needed it to be. Majority of the time I would find a walking stick to use so I could utilize while walking along these old railroad tracks that went through my town.

We used to play with GI-Joe's too, though they were called Action Force over here. They were not quite as cool as Transformers which was my favourite. Turtles were pretty cool too.

Me and a friend had this forest that we played in where we just lived in our own imagination. There was a dinosaur rock cave that we spent a lot of time in and we also used to run to escape the orcish horde which hung around in the area. And we spent a lot of time just hanging around in trees too. When I discovered a passion for climbing trees, I used to pretend I was a squirrel.

I did have an "xbox" at the time, though. My trusty Commodore 64!

My favorite recollection in this entire thread. :laughing:

One day, I'm gonna go back to the forests of my home town, climb a tree and find a pine cone or something to gnaw on.

i had so much fun when i was a kid. i had the privilege of growing up in the mountains. we lived at the end of a long dirt road, our house was surrounded by forest, and there wasn't a neighbor in site.

my memories are filled with tree houses, model rockets, buried treasure, snow caves, crashing down the mountain side in a red wagon... real calvin and hobbes stuff.

and the toys! transformers, hotwheels, micro machines, MASK, legos, rc cars...

those were the days :)

You and I must be about the exact same age. How old are you?

I once read something on an auction site (actually it's a site for free stuff, but that doesn't matter)
"It's sort of an mp3 player, but with cassettes".

*ouch*
I'm going old.
