Hi everyone - just got home from dinner, and...addict that I am, signed right on to my computer.

Wanted to let you know that - the planets must be aligned - A&E's Biography tonight (on right now) is about the actors of THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY!!

They're exploring the times and the music...

It's this thread come to life!!!

Oh - and yes, yes, yes to all the memories - from etch-a-sketch to those transparency things (WHAT were they called) to the sponges to...to...to...

ok, fess up, you're all my childhood neighbors.
I swear, we all grew up together!

How about Mr. Potato Head

That magnetic "Face" where you moved some sort of metal shavings around to create hair and beards...

And play doh - I liked it, but loved Silly Putty more...

I loved those 'ditto' papers...the purple ink.

I taught for a few years before I went into advertising (a LONG time ago), and remember that ditto machine - with the big roller and the special paper I had to use for my lessons...

Bboobs - back to your earlier message.

Cloth diapers. I remember them well. I was babysitter 'extodinaire' with the diaper pins. Never stuck a child...even when they squirmed! (So - some things do improve with age...those cloth diapers were a pain!)

The milkman and the milk bottles - and the metal milkbox by our side door...

Ah, yes - those were the days!

Yeah - I'm in all night!

I'm going to go get a glass of chocolate milk and some oreos...

ok, maybe it will be a bit more grown-up than that, but I'm totally in!

...I think there was something on Charlie Rose I was going to watch, but A&E has me hooked! My VCR is capturing it all!

Pajama party...absolutely!

OOOh - another memory: "Come As You Are Parties". You would try to call friends at funny times to 'catch' them in their jammies...

oh shoot - it's a tough choice.

I'm sticking with the puka shell chokers and shag haircuts, though...it's just Karma that's too good to pass up!!!

Remember before "caller id" when for kicks we would call like the bowling alley and ask the person if they had 50 pound balls and when they would say yes we would ask them how they could walk. Harmless fun.

Ok - this is too grown-up of me..but I have two TV's and two VCR's. One is set for Charlie Rose and one is set for Biography. And I'm on the computer.

Can you say plugged in??

Back to the past...they just mentioned the show Nanny and The Professor. I loved that show!

ok - I just re-programmed Charlie Rose to catch 20/20 until 11...I think I'm in total TV heaven, too!

But - if anyone saw me running from room to room they'd think I was insane!

Red Light, Green Light

and

Capture The Flag

and

Red Rover...

My friend Lusia ...she's the girl in my icon...was in "50 First Dates" with Sean Astin and she says "he is the salt of the earth".

I'm glad to hear that - I always liked him.

I have a fun David Cassidy story.

My roommate played Linda in Blood Brothers on Broadway - with David and Shaun Cassidy. I was working for Nick-At-Night at the time, so we scheduled a "Partridge Family" night - and hosted a dinner and took clients to see the show on Broadway. Shirley Jones came and my roommate arranged for us all to go backstage after the show - and then the cast and our clients went out for drinks after the show. I felt like a giddy 12-year old when I told David Cassidy that he and I have the same birthday and that I'd always been so 'cool' in school because of that! Fun night - and I saw the show a bunch of times from backstage while I hung out with my roommate...and never got tired of seeing David!!
