Debra She Who Seeks said...: I had it even worse than being a child of the 70s -- I was a teenager of the (early) 70s! GAH!; January 21, 2016 at 11:24 AM
DrGoat said...: Me too. I was 20 in 1970. We didn't have VCRs, and we
didn't really care who shot JR. Too stoned at the time anyway.
Did have a beautiful turquoise rotary phone.; January 21, 2016 at 12:25 PM
Cal's Canadian Cave of Coolness said...: Ewww, you both still have the stink of the 60s on ya. Now me, by the late 70s I had my pink princess phone with my own number, my 13 inch black and white tv with 13 channels, my beta VCR, and my game of pong...which also had hockey when you used two paddles. And my room was in the cool basement. I was stylin. I didn't even mention my turntable, speakers and vinyl collection....bitches.; January 21, 2016 at 1:40 PM
j-swin said...: One side, pops! I was a kid in the 80's and had all the best stuff...super Mario brothers, pudding pops, ninja turtles, Leah Thompson, Tim Burton's Batman, cool ranch Doritos and let's not forget Empire and Jedi, the best two out of the trilogy.; January 21, 2016 at 5:17 PM
j-swin said...: HOLY CRAP!!! I forgot to tell you I scored ANOTHER 6" black series Rey at Walmart! My luck's changing!; January 21, 2016 at 5:20 PM
Cal's Canadian Cave of Coolness said...: oH...90S BOY...I had those same things too. It was my treasures that you were devoid of enjoying. I saw Empire IN THE THEATRE and JEDI was our trip for Senior Skip Day. My whole grad class drove to Edmonton to see it.; January 21, 2016 at 6:31 PM
Cal's Canadian Cave of Coolness said...: Oh and I hope your Rey melts in the hot sun. If only to make the OTHER FREAKIN ONE that you have more valuable.

Calvin's Canadian Cave Of Cool Manifesto

I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.

I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.

I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.

And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.

So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.

Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.

This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.
