Random 80’s Item – Kangaroos
Have you been to the sporting goods store “Finish Line” recently? If so, you may have noted that their stock of “throwback” tennis shoes is beyond belief. It was while standing in this store that I found a pair of “Roos“. My mind instantly went back to the pocket on the side and spokesman for the shoes like Walter “sweetness” Payton and Clyde “The Glide” Drexler. While I personally never owned a pair of “Roos”, it doesn’t mean I didn’t want a pair.
How about you? Did you have a pair of “Roos” and if so, what did you keep in that little pocket on the side?
Thanks Paul Blart!
“The Boy” and I went to see “Paul Blart Mall Cop” over the weekend. I won’t give a review one way or the other. I will tell you that in true Happy Madison Productions fashion, the soundtrack was filled with great 80’s tunes. As a matter of fact, I cannot get the song below out of my head. I’ve been singing it since the moment we walked of the theater. Try getting this song out of your head today too…
“Can’t Hold Back” by Survivor

An 80's Christmas
First off let me say that my commentary below takes nothing away from the heart of what this song was all about. Imagine what this world would be like if we all had the vision and heart of Bob Geldof.
That being said….
- See how many mullets you count was you watch this video. It’s got to be double digits. I included Phil Collins because it appeared that the “party in the back” was creeping over his shirt collar.
- I always thought it was cool that Sting got to sing a lyric with his name in it.
- Does Bono have the greatest part of this song or what?
- Man I wanted Simon Le bon hair….
- Was that Bananarama?
- I noted more than one pair of tight rolled jeans in this clip.
- I think I even spotted a Swatch Watch somewhere in there.
- Cool and the Gang had a mullets too!
- What ever happened to Jody Watley?
Good times…. Good Times…
