Had to shut it off when "The A-Team" and "Riptide" came on, though.

LOL...you all are giving me a chuckle. The funny thing is, I was probably your age or older during those years. I remember signing on the internet when there were maybe 20,000 people online. There was the first online community started by some hippie deadheads called "The Well" based in Sausalito, California. I was there! Live and in Living DOS Then I started hanging around these folks and started crunching what was to become HTML...damn, I'm old.
