Remember when...
While skimming today's threads, I was inspired to try to start a new W.F. game after seeing BlkHwk1's post... The game essentially is for each participant to build off the phrase: "Remember when"

An example could be:

... a bottle of Coke was 5 cents
or
... the Canadian (American) mens hockey team could win a medal
or
... you could walk through an airport security point without getting half naked

Hope you enjoy!

Remember when the only eight track you could get was Trini Lopez and the Tijuana Brass?

Your Plymouth Barracuda never sounded so good!

Remember when "getting online" meant you were two blocks away from the ticket counter for the original Star Wars movie?

Remember those wide, skinny floppies? Gosh I hated those... You flip the little level and punch a hole through it instead of mounting it if it's not perfectly seated.
