Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles debuted in a comicbook in May 1984.

Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo and Raphael have had great commercial success the last 25 years with cartoons, movies, and video games.

Cowabunga!

Sportin' the Sweaters

Take special notice of Skip's sweater and Mr. Holler's pants. Nice!
And did you notice we wore an awful lot of pins & buttons back then -- so 80's!

School Lunches

Did you buy or bring?
Lunchtime was always socially fun for us.
What was your favorite school lunch?
Spaghetti with meat sauce? Turkey gravy, mashed potatoes and peas? Fish sticks? Pizza?
Or did you always just grab the Funyuns and an ice cream bar?



Whatever it was, bet you washed it down with a pint-carton of chocolate milk!
