my da broke Megatron after about half an hour on xmas day.
the next year i pulled down the tree with some motorised monster truck called "THE ANIMAL" or something. it wasn't radio controlled and couldn't move in any direction other than forward. i liked it. i'm a simple person

we will never forget
 
with respect brownbear consider you dads heavy weight a blessing.

space hoppers were for benders when i was young. if you wanted to travel in style in 1987 the lolo ball was your conduit.

comfort, power and grace.

lolo bals always cause tension of somekind around here. my guess is that one day in 1985 miss piggy jumped too hard on a lolo bal and the ball popped through the plastic frame and clathered her in the face. am i warm?i fuckin loved them lolo bals, way more so than any other wanky 80s useless gimmick.

80s crap fads: water watches
80s deadly fads: woks

I'd prefer a poochi and a rainbow brite.

also, a lolo bal and a hypercolour t-shirt would be nice. And a fashion wheel.
my mam got me a fashion wheel when she didn't know what else to get. I got through a lot of them.
xmas...fashion wheel
birthday...fashion wheel
sister was born....fashion wheel
dad having depression....fashion wheel!!
Same applied to magnadoodles.
 
I never had a fashion wheel. Sigh.
I had this thing called fashion by me, which consisted of a doll thing on a stand, with seams up and down her sides. You cut clothes shapes out of shiny fabric and sort of jammed them into her seams to dress her. Fashion by GEE, more like.
