Uh oh...is DS pervading the household? New PHOTOS on p. 2

[jennifer]

LOL !!  Yeah, ya know, being a "Bampire" DOES have its drawbacks.
Oh, ya know what else?  Ya know this SIMS game that's so popular?  Where you build houses and create characters that interact with each other?  Well, my son wants to build Collinwood and create Barnabas and Julia, and everyone. Apparently the game has a voodoo doll that you can do things to people with.

Oy vey...  

Hey The Sims my children would not go to the beach the other day because of it. But CollinWood that i like!My children hate DS i use it as punishment They have to watch it with me if they act up!Mean old witch that i am![bawl]

E???  Do tell!

[Raineypark]

It was not a Teddy Bear.....it was a Panda bear.

And NO, Midnite, I will not tell you what "E" meant, and neither will Abbeymarch because, although she doesn't know it yet, she's already DEAD!!

*When I was 6 years old in 1969, I was so deeply involved with Jamison becoming possessed by Count Petofi. I went as far as to finding a pair of black gloves in my grandmother's attic, and then walking around like I was possessed by Count Petofi!  I did this for several days, and needless to say, family members and neighbors were not amused.  I still have several family photos with me in my "possession" mode!  I would post one on the board here, but unfortunately I don't know how to do that.  I had to stop and go back to being myself, when one day I almost poured myself a drink from my parents liquor cabinet!   Fortunately, my DS was not cut off because my dad and brother loved the show.

I LOVE this story, and the photo is even more precious...



Spoiler ahead!!!

Wonderful story and GREAT photo. I really enjoy nostalgic stories and photos like this. Here is one a few of us can relate to. It is a photo of a friend of mine, and what she found under her Christmas tree way back in 1970......

[VAM]

Hey Bob,

  I like the Christmas pix. Those "Barbie" dolls were not the ones that were borrowed for...

[RingoCollins]

what she found under her Christmas tree way back in 1970......

Great one, man!  Thanks for the flashback....

- but what is the dude on the right sticking in his ear?  [and the guy in the middle, who is doing the Prince Charles imitation...... I'm NOT gonna comment on what his gift was , but is sure is tempting to burn in an image on that big ole tv screen]


Where are they now???

[CandleLighter]

I think "Prince Charles" is holding a battery operated helicopter.. it flies around in a circle on that wire thing attached to the control.. what fun!  

[doombuggy69]

Ringo,
My guess is the thing he is holding to his ear is a transistor radio.  They were pretty big in 1970, and I  remember getting one back then too.  Along with the BC game!    Speaking of which, I wonder who got the game, the boys or the girls?

[abbeymarch]

E???  Do tell!

Dear Midnite,
I would love to, but I'm afraid I've been banished from this thread. It was the Entire Board, but I was able to plea bargain my sentence down to this thread only. I will tell you this though, if you do the math you'll figure it out.
And now that I've violated my parole, au revoir!
