I browsed through my middle and high school yearbooks recently, while drinking cold, depreciating mugs of Pigs Eye beer. Taking care not to drip the dying slags of falling frost upon the aged pages, I wrestled with an obvious truth concerning yearbook nostalgia: We look silly. We act silly. We have silly sayings we believe are cool. We rely upon certain people to be the "in crowd" while others more substantial fade into the background. We have silly hair styles and clothing. We spent money on toys, games, and music that quickly goes out of style. We even made David Soul and Kajagoogoo pop music phenoms.
And that my fellow FReepers and lurkers is just plain SILLY and that's a jolly good excuse to post old photos, songs you love/hate, dances you did/didn't do, clothes you wore/took off, and/or your normal misgivings about all things involving the presidency of Jimmy Carter.

Remember when...
Kajagoogoo was once a pop music sensation!
and
Men's swim teams used to wear one piece women's bathing suits.

I was lucky enough to be a child of the 80's. The great Ronald Reagan made up for the not-so-great legwarmers, big hair, and We Are the World.
