Oedipus complex?

 

Lol. No. Just a big fan of the Sears catalog especially when I became a teenager for some reason.

I still have my strategy football game. It's pretty beaten up but usable and to this day a great game. In my 40's I'd have epic, drunken matches with a friend on overnight ski trips.

LOL you and me both

Prior to the box we had the rotary antenna

We'd tune into (from Roch) Buffalo, Syracuse and later at night Toronto TV to watch "racy" TV shows.

to have mom or dad scream at me --- What the hell are you watching!!!

 

We had an antenna like the one pictured on a rotor. The main purpose of our rotor was Hockey Night in Canada. Glued to the TV every Wed and Sat night, could even make a quick bathroom run during the game because if you missed something, you missed it. No replay put a lot of strain on the bladder. I just now remembered when if first started to be implemented, you could only get a replay during the period breaks or after the game. So I am thinking the first delayed replays came somewhere around 65-67.

This was my stereo as a teen! 8 track and all...

Couldn't find a picture of mine, but I did find a video, I had this bad boy right up through college. Even had it modified to connect a CD player to it....

Six pages in and no one mentioned these? Unless of course I missed it.

I had them (see Rat Patrol jeep above). My best Christmas present ever was when I unwrapped a two foot high package, and it was a stack of GI Joe uniform and accessory boxes.
