Kyle W asked:
I used to spend hours playing electronic football — you know, with the vibrating board and the little guys. It would take forever to set up each play. Now with Madden, why would a kid do that.

Any toys you liked as a kid that aren’t around much anymore?

My old Fisher-Price cash register which only took cash. Now it’s the scanner with the debit machine. Even I would rather play with the new one now.

Polly Pockets. And I mean the REAL Polly Pockets not the stupid things with rubber clothes you can get now. They were very tiny dolls (maybe the length of the nail on your little finger) and they had this little case that you opened and then it had their house/yard/pool/whatever in it, and little places you could stick the doll. I have no idea what I did with them, but I played with them for hours almost every day.
