Things Modern Kids Won't Recognize

[CivicDew]

This made me laugh. I was born in 1981 and there are a lot of things my little boy who is nearly 2 will find hard to comprehend when he gets older. I really need to find and purchase an Atari 2600 with the wood grain which was the first gaming system I ever played. After that was one of the best...Nintendo "NES".

BTW - I still have a My Pet Monster from early-mid 80's. Passed it on to my little one.

Funny. Many of those things I didn't know because I'm too old.

I was born over 20 years before you.
