well! i guess that proves to me that i grew up in front of the tv set!
LMAO i can not believe that i knew all those answers!! even though a couple of them i actually learned as a teen. (was there and aware of the others! lol)
we were watching a show on commericals that were done in the 50's & 60's last night and laughing so hard because of the memories that were brought back, which of course lead to other conversations of remember this or remember that! we had a blast!
can't wait to show this quiz!
thanks echo!!!
