Oh my, Yes!

Flood of memories. Why is it that the memories of our teen years are more vivid that last week’s? Could it be Alzheimer’s?

Distant memories are often more vivid than recent ones.

I have no idea why.

I can just about recall every second of my teen years but can’t remember 10 minutes ago....LOL

I just call that having blonde moments, and as long as no one can remember my natural hair color that's the excuse I am using. :-)

Seadragon, ping for some serious Grade Z movies. LOL

Salamander, oh yeah, I remember Damnation Alley, I thought the truck was totally cool. But that may have decided my life long aversion to roaches! LOL

Of course, it had Jan-Michael Vincent and George Peppard in it. A-Team and Air Wolf... you just couldn't get better than that (even though those were after DV) for a teenage girl.

But then if you really wanted something that lasted the ages, Death Race 2000 with David Carradine. To this day, I will still say something along the lines of 50 points, if you can hit that without scratching the paint.
