I used to love George of the Jungle. It's just too bad that it's been ruined by the Cartoon Network with bad animation and even worse voice acting.

Barrel of Monkeys
My brother and I had these things when we were kids but they weren't in the barrel so we didn't have very much fun with them.

First Day of School
The first day of school was always so traummatizing for me. I think it was mostly because I didn't want to leave the safety and security of being with my parents because that was the only thing that I knew from the time I was born until I turned 4. I think I always hated the teachers that I was stuck with in JK and SK.
My JK teacher at the first school that I went to always got the kids so stressed. One day we had an indoor recess because it was raining outside and the school had a climber in the basement. Well I decided that I was going to be a smart aleck and slide down the slide head first and I did a few times before my shoelace came undone and got stuck in the slide. Well, the teacher's assistant that was there unhooked my shoelace and got me going again and that's when the teacher said to me: "Celeste that's why we slide down feet first." I was four! Was she expecting a four year old to be as well disciplined as her? I don't know.
Then my family moved to another part of the city and we had to transfer schools and starting SK there was no picnic either because the teacher there thought she was always right. My mother was working at the time and after she left me there I wouldn't stop crying and screaming so that was when the teacher gave up on what to do with me. I never wanted to socialize with the other kids because I was just starting at a new school and it was all pretty scary to me.
I swear that when I start having kids and they're ready for school I won't put them through that.

McDonald's
I like McDonald's for many reasons. Sometimes when if I feel like eating out my mother, grandfather, and I almost always go for McDonald's and I almost always go for the Big Mac.
They had a sandwich called the McDLT which came in one of those two sided styrofoam containers that keeps the buns from getting too soggy well they had this mother of inventions until some enviromentalists found that toxins from the styrofoam leech into the food. Leave it up to some environmentalists to spoil everyone's fun.
It's still a fun resturant to go to in spite of the environmental aspects of it.

Turbo, Small Foot, Scooter, and the Last Engineer
One of my fondest memories was to sit in front of the TV and watch Challenge of the Gobots. I used to watch it on CHCH TV 11 in Toronto back in the day when they had cartoons.

GoBots
My earliest memory of this toy was when my brother and I got our first ones for christmas one year. I got my brother a Pathfinder toy and he got me a Small Foot toy. Two of the hardest to find Gobot toys were Scooter and Sparky because they were so "in demand" at the time.
It's just too bad that the Gobots line wasn't promoted as well as the Transformers line.

Madballs
I was nine when these things came out and for some reason my mother didn't want me to have them. I still have no clue why she didn't want me to have them? Maybe she was afraid I'd have nightmares with them or what? I still liked them.

Jelly shoes
I had a pair of red jelly sandals but I couldn't wear them because they'd rub against the sides of my feet and give me blisters so these types of shoes are not good for people who are flat footed and pigeon toed or have oddly shaped feet.

The Inhumanoids
I never got any of the InHumanoids toys. What kid out there wouldn't have wanted toys with bad guys that looked as bad as Metlar, Tendril, and D.Compose did?
