I'll get my husband to check these threads out later. He is a Post Boomer. I fall into Gen X (I think? '66). My earliest memory is Watergate interrupting my Saturday morning cartoons.

I was born in 1956...I guess I can join.

I remember always listening to the Beatles as a kid....my older brothers would force me..

I hate the Beatles.....only kid in America that hated the Beatles!

From #207 on Thread 2...

"That was the brother of the kid who's stomach blew up from drinking coke while eating pop rocks. LOL "

Hah! I totally remember both of those tales growing up in San Jose.

But I believe there's a basis in fact to the pop rocks story... Isn't Coke and pop rocks the only known way to dislodge the 8 year old swallowed chewing gum from your intestines?

Great idea! Thanks for starting these threads. I tried to check back in on the rant thread last night, only to discover it had vanished. As an "ancient" student, I have to go study for two exams I have back-to-back tomorrow (ugh), but I'll be back to catch up on these!

In case it hasn't been mentioned yet -- there was the girl who fell asleep with Bubble Yum in her mouth and it had spiders eggs in it. They hatched and she woke up with all these webs in her mouth, ha ha ha.
