Going Retro!!
Saturday, April 08, 2006
I'm back in the office now and its so tranquile.. Yes it is when there is no one else is here :) And I am not even complaining for what its worth! Hehe... Bought a bunch of snacks that will last the night hehe.. Most of it will be left untouched though.. Luckily the ciggies are provided for free! Earlier on I received an email from a friend which listed out almost all the things that those who were born in the early 70s grew up with! And yes, I grew with all those things too and loved it.. Maybe one of these days I post the actual email here after all since it was so cool. Thinking back, TV series like CHiPs, Space 1999, Buck Rogers, and Battlestar Galactica (The original version) along with cartoons like Challenge of the Gobots, Transformers, Captain Future, Voltron, Thundercats, Silverhawks and a lot others do bring a big smile to my face!I mean who would not love them.. It really gives a meaning to watch the TV screen.. Although if we were to watch it now, it's probably looks stupid but the fun it brought to us back then is really precious..
It also made me thinks that all those shows were that good and made us as youngsters to stay home and watch it.. Unlike today's programmes which most of it are just plain dull and boring.. In a way, I think it helped us to stay out of trouble by watching TV.. Just see in the newspapers and TVs on how bad today's youngsters are!
Man.. I could go on writing on this subject the whole night but I guess better save some for later.. Well I'm signing off now.. and thinking back - Life is just great!!
