Remember the two guys in one shirt and pair of pants, to look like a two headed guy? That was pretty funny, in the seventies or eighties. Ah, life was so much simpler then! ;)mechurchlady wrote:I remember watching the Gong Show and Gene the Dancing Machine.

Re: Will Disney Keep Us Amused?
What? I'm ALWAYS amused when I'm around other people!!!!!! Disneyland is the perfect place to people-watch :D: Especially in line. For SGs. And there is all the pretty plants, and hidden Mickeys to look for, and the music, and the smells,and.....what was I posting about??????Syndrome wrote:Memories of Hung:

Personally I think it's pathetic that people can't even stand in a line without something to amuse them. How did the hell did the human race make it this far? And why do we worry about global warming when the crisis of diminishing attention spans will kill off the human race much more quickly and effectively?

Gong Show was populare because I was young and there was no computers, ipods, or walkman radios let alone video arcades.

It's amazing what we'd watch when our entertainment choices were limited, huh? My kids still are amazed that once there were only 3 or 4 TV channels. (You know, back in the stone age, when we'd watch TV in our caves by firelight. :rolleyes :)mechurchlady wrote:Gong Show was populare because I was young and there was no computers, ipods, or walkman radios let alone video arcades.

Remember the first remotes, the ones that earned the nickname of "clicker"? They'd make this loud click, and the TV would change one channel at a time?GRUMPY PIRATE wrote:And had to actually GO to the T.V. to change channels!!!
