Best Christmas Toys Ever! Part III

I personally didn't have this toy (thanks alot mom), but my neighbor Bobby Cunningham did (shout out to Hockanum Projects).  I would go over his house just to play with it because it was so awesome. He-man's Castle Greyskull! All the arguments to see who got to play He-Man (well you were He-man last time!). Castle Greyskull will forever go down in 80s toy awesomeness history. I have the POWER!!!

Best Christmas Toys Ever! Part II

Yes don't hate, but back in 1983, through a family friend hook-up, I was able to receive a Cabbage Patch Doll for Christmas! For those of you who remember, Xavier Roberts, the doll creator, had parents clawing each others eyes out to make sure their child had one of these bad boys under the tree that year.  I can remember the big ass box that they came in, their hard ass faces, that yarn hair and just the smell of them.  They came in all ethnicities,which was unheard of at that time. They even inspired the much loved Garbage Pail Kids.  Over the years, my cabbage patch family grew. I had my original, then came the white premie, the little Hispanic one, and we can't forget the twins. 

After awhile, Cabbage Patch dolls popularity dwindled, as newer and hotter toys came out.   However I will never forget the absolute joy of receiving that very first one.

Best Christmas Toys Ever! Part 1

Christmas will be upon us in a little over a month, and it always gets me to thinking about all the awesome toys I had. So I've decided to start a little series called...Best Christmas Toys Ever! According to me of course.

Part 1:  Barbie and the Rockers

Yeah sure it was a girl's toy, but I remember every item and piece of clothing of this famous 80s Barbie series that I had. Why? Because it was the most awesomest Barbie ever! They were so awesome, that Mattel reproduced the series in 2008.

I had Barbie, the Black one, the Asian one, Derek, the tour bus, and the stage set.

Please Wash Your Hands!!

Listening to someone cough in the office (it doesn't sound muffled or covered at all) has just reminded me to remind you this flu season to please wash your hands, thoroughly and frequently.  Just running your hands under the water doesn't cut it. It's a damn shame you have to remind grown folks! Ordering a new bottle of Purell as we speak.

Why do I like this song?

Lil Wayne's I'm Single.  It's just one of those songs you can't get caught singing without looking for a backhand from your partner...
