Halloween as a Gen Xer was a treat for so many reasons. We couldn't wait to don our cheap plastic costumes with those masks that nearly caused suffocation and demand our fair share of Milky Way bars and Smarties. It was all pure candy bliss.Tony Karraa & Eric Wibbelsmann

If you're like us, the first thing your 7 year old self did in the morning was pour a bowl of Lucky Charms and sit down in front of the tube to feast on an oh so satisfying array of animatied mania. We gorged on Looney Toons, Warner Bros, Sid & Marty Krofft, Hanna Barbera and topped it off with some Ren & Stimpy. The real question is, what cocktail…

In the beginning... there was vinyl!!! LPs and 45s reigned supreme for generations but the need for portability spawned the age of plastic music media. Soon four track cassettes were melting in the summer heat of our car interiors - and out of the primordial cassette ooze the digital age of the Compact Disc was born.…

Variety is the spice of life. In the 70s and 80s, we had a ton of it. Variety shows meant singing, superstars, sketches and sex. Carol Burnett, Sonny & Cher, Hee Haw, Donnie & Marie, Laugh In and the inimitable Muppet Show brought us all of the above and more. And while not always suitable for impressionalbe young viewers - we ate that S#!t up!!!!…

With enormous screens, Lo-Fi sound and exhaust fumes that could kill a young elephant, who wouldn't love a drive-in movie?! They were the best places to catch a flick in the 70s and 80s. Roll down your window, ease the seat back and enjoy the aroma of weed, popcorn and engine oil. It's movie time!Tony Karraa & Eric Wibbelsmann

Remember the days when the family used to gather on the living room couch, overjoyed to watch the evening sitcom on a tiny lo-fi screen the size of your computer monitor? Or how about listening to records on your parents "hi-fi" system that was as big as a loveseat? From early Super 8 video recorders to our first Walkmans and pull out car stereos, …

As Gen X kids, as soon as we could walk we wanted to ride. Looking for adventure - rollin' around on Tonka trucks, Big Wheels, skateboards and rollerblades. All of it culminating with the ultimate freedom of crusing the neighborhood seated high atop our first banana seat without training wheels. We ruled the streets. Let's roll!…

From the family station wagon that hauled us around town to getting behind the wheel of the first vehicles of our own, cars were a different kind of beast in the 70s and 80s. Seatbelts? Optional. Would they start on a cold morning? Probably not. We were lucky if we had air conditioning and a tape deck. And let's not forget the infamous cigarette li…

In the 70s and 80s we made it our mission to shove as much fast food into our gaping pieholes as humanly possible. Burgers, fries, tacos, burritos and a stready stream of soda to wash it all down. If Sheriff Brody and Hooper sliced us open they wouldn't have found a Virginia license plate, but instead a steady stream of sugar, sodium and a bunch of…

Slides, swings, monkey bars, merry-go-rounds and ball pits. In the Gen X days these playgrounds were mine fields just waiting to skin our knees and crack our wrists. Simultaneaously teetering on almost certain disaster. There was no fear in the hearts of the young. Only in the faces of the parents looking on. Or were they even paying attention??…

Arcades were all the rage in the 80s. We were kids hell bent on keeping the planet safe from Space Invaders, traumatized by the inevitable destruction of the world in Missile Command and completely addicted to scarfing down dots with Ms. Pac Man. Whether we played at the arcade or at home on our Atari consoles, video games were our drug of choice.…

Like, gag-me-with-a-spoon, the Galleria! For Gen Xers in the 80s there was no better after school hang than the local mall. Grab a Slurpie, scarf down a Hot Dog on a Stick and get your 5 dollar movie ticket to see Fast Times at Ridgemont High. From hanging in the food court with your friends to finding the best deal on parachute pants, the mall was…

What were GenX birthday parties like, you ask? Picture this: homemade Betty Crocker cakes, mountains of ice cream over which you could not see, gallons of soda, scoring handfuls of quarters to play old school arcade games at the local pizza parlour and the pressure of trying to keep up with the "cool factor" of rich kid b-day parties.…

In the 70s and 80s, recess and lunch were more important than church. Any opportunity to wolf down as much sugar as possible before beating the crap out of each other during a spirited game of jungle ball was a welcome relief from the duldrums of sister mary whatshername. Any Gen Xers will tell you that recess and lunch were battles of the fittest.…
