I am younger than Woodstock and "The Summer of Love" but older than Disco.

I remember when MTV had music. At a young age, I bought a NES with saved up birthday/Christmas money because it was way cooler than my moms Atarti 2600. Playing outside around the neighborhood was the normal. Roaming the mall as a teenager was standard. Hell I remember when malls regularly had lots of people. I watched the adoption of technology from a fringe thing to mainstream.

I remember when Fox was a brand-new network that only broadcast during specific times of the day in my area.

I watched the twin towers fall but none of it connected and never gave me the fanatical patriotism it was supposed to.

SLP was always the way to go because the quality was so shit even live it didn't make much difference.
