Can the adults please smoke?

Posted: 7/30/04 at 11:30pmI remember my first pair of bell bottoms...gray pinstripe...I put them on and danced around the house playing "Love Child" by the Supremes. Okay now I will have a Harvey Wallbanger.

I loved being a girl scout...and recently found my mess kit and canteen, and all the stuff of scouting!
I still remember my pledge - and have my uniform neatly packed away...

beacon, me too!
I was a girl scout in high school when it was seriously not cool...but I loved camping, and was in 'mariners' (the sailing troop), so didn't care.
My 12-year old niece is a girl scout, so I have a freezer full of Thin Mints. In fact - anyone want one to go with their Harvery Wallbanger or Kamikazee...??

Now that you mention it, I think I did a year of Senior Scout. The troop was sort of fizzling out right about then, but I think I did.
We had candy stacked at our house because of my brother, the Boy Scout who voluteered my dad to head that drive. Dad was thrilled.

Bboobs - that was a laugh out loud memory!
I remember dancing around in new school shoes...and in my groovy plaid pantsuits with the little gold chains around the hips...

NYadgal - a friend did the tour of AIDA with Patrick - so I got to meet the Cassidy clan - and I, too, told Daviv all my old memories. I think it might have been different coming from me, though
We all had a good laugh about it.

Yes...Cub Scout.
Must admit I still have my badge and star. I've no idea why. I was never that committed.

Posted: 7/30/04 at 11:38pmWow. Thw whole uniform. I just have the sash, hat and the thingy that pined to your shoulder with the two yellow rope things. I'm drawing a blank on what it's called. I do still have my First Communion pocketbook, dress, veil and prayer book, though if that counts. Not exactly sure why I'm saving it.

Posted: 7/30/04 at 11:39pmDid anyone else make those folded paper things in school that you slipped on your fingers, and said a little rhyme while you opened the different sides - and wherever you land would give you the answer you were looking for? Not a great description, I know, but I don't know how else to describe it - it looked like a little animal whoose mouth opened both ways.

It all counts, bdway girl.
I'm a hopeless 'pack rat' - and keep everything. It's all very organized, and packed away for safe keeping...but have many, many boxes in the attic.
I probably still have many of the games and books we've mentioned. And I know I have all my record albums!

Came in many colors.

DGrant - yes, in fact beacon just mentioned that!
So funny! I remember we usually labeled the 'sides' to answer questions - like who we would marry and how many children we would have...

Posted: 7/30/04 at 11:44pmI will never, ever, ever get rid of my albums and 45's. EVER. When I was looking for a new stereo, I refused to get one unless it had a turntable.

Posted: 7/30/04 at 11:46pmHow about Shields and Yarnell? I just saw them in Scottsdale doing their old mime and robot act.

I loved Shields and Yarnell.

I was there about a year ago, and loved seeing all the old pictures!
