AH, the 80's.  Big hair, Shoulder pads, women wearing ties (which I hated) and cheesy music and sitcoms.

AAAHHHH the memories.

Chessy music????? :Xo!... dude, waz-up... that's everything after the 70's (which I like, not all, but some), and the 90's (before this new hip-hop/r&b/rap/W.T.F were-they-thinking-type-of-s#@t came out.

Chessy music?  Them's is fightin' words :x! ;) :x! ;)

When I was in my teens in the 80's I knew every word to every song and thought I had it made.  You look back on it now and it's like OMG!  I listened to that!? :*))

Good times, though.  Good times.   O0

Don't we all go through that? :)  I hear you though, I felt the same way. 

I do DJ'ing on the side and have a huge collection of music... a large portion is 80's, anything from:  electric/funk/punk/disco/freestyle/r&b/rap/rock-a-billy/house/techno/lounge... let me tell you brotha, the 80's were much more than spiky hair, shoulder pads, fluorescent clothes, hair spray, footsies (know what those were?), cowboy boots with silver-tips (no, I never owned any), flat-tops (for those of us that had hair, back-in-the-days), .... the list just goes on.

Feel free to add any 80's memories to the list.

Women wearing ties was bad, but the rest was GOOD? haha I would have to say that style-wise there wasn't really a whole lot I would say was good. Funny how we always look back at the cool trends of former decades and laugh. I'm already laughing at the emo/indie look of today.

You kidding me... I'm already thinking about what the sly look will be in five to ten years.  Gotta think ahead... a bald head, that is!!!

If you look over the years, a bald head has always been classic. It just IS. You can only have one type of BALD, so there's no other way of doing it.
