#1 The worst part about the Ad's prediction, was it assumed that you would have a place to live.

Chan,

Me, too. The M-16 was what they used in 'Nam so it was very popular back then thanks to movies. I had a whole toy crate full of realistic looking guns, including an Uzi (inspired by The A-Team) and a couple of 1911 BB guns that looked very real. No red tips or anything.

Incidentally, the real M-16 was a piece of junk.

#5 - I remember when Facebook came out. I thought it was the stupidest thing. And the company that I worked for tried to create a similar internal app. I had no idea it would take off like it did - but I still don’t use it because I had such strong feeling for how stupid the idea was lol.

#10 I have a highly collectible deck of playing cards, each of which have various nude women. A completely nude and kneeling Betty White is the 9 of heart 's. I don't know where that deck is, but it's here somewhere.
