I can only assume race riots given the year…
Not very cool

This model was so sleek, such a gorgeous design. I had to take my drivers license test in it, however and had never driven it before, at all! That was an experience!

My Mom got a Champaign colored one in 79. Our young and cranky teething Doberman chewed away a lot of the padding on the outside a week after my Step Dad gave it to her. We walked out and what had been beige was now the blue foam underneath. She was horrified!

She's mid fifties now so, she would have been 30 ish in 1998. She does look younger than that to me in this picture. I saw her too, but it was at a later date than you saw her so I can't really compare.

This picture is genuinely frightening.

I watched it one time and she was always saying she was a vegetarian. I was too (around that time), so thought it was neat. But then in one episode she and her boyfriend? friend? husband?, I don't know, ate bacon and it surprised me because bacon is clearly not vegetarian. All these years later and I still remember this.

If he was a virgin here, he wasn’t a virgin by the end of the night. That guy’s a babe magnet.

No, just a casual photo of 3 sleep paralysis demons meeting up at the company picnic.

They look SO young, considering I was from this era. Happens more often than not, lately. ☺️

This was his singing group, and apparently this album - which I listened to on vinyl growing up - is on Spotify! He was blown away. Solo on “Tigertown Blues”.

kids smoking hand-rolled cigarettes and packing heat reminded you of the goonies?

Yeah, he spoke Hungarian and ended marrying my mom, who is Hungarian, although when they moved to the U.S. they lost a lot of that language, just because they stopped using it so much
