Well not really. I took a razor blade to my Def Leppard shirt. It's pretty sad but I think I still have it stuffed somewhere in a drawer.

Xovian, you're not alone. Especially since I purchased all the TF stuff when it went to DVD....

Those were my exact thoughts as I read it. I blame Oregon Trail for my computer addiction.

Any one remember Laserdiscs you could skip to your favorite part of the movie without spending 10 minutes fast-forwarding. Or in the case of science class being forced to watch 16 hours of an ameba ambling though fuzzifying jelly without the need to rewind.

EDIT: I Speel gud!

Was wondering if i was the only one who remembered them being related. Hadnt been on the boards a few days, figured someone would say something eventualy.

them = He-Man & She-Ra

glad someone finaly pointed it out lol.

Yes i remmebr the 5 day ( 5 hours ) special with it showing She-Ra's story. And how they were related. Always thought it was odd she went back to her " world ". Instead of staying with the family.

I second that Death. I loved 1st. edition and even 2nd. edition D&D. Haven't even played the 3.5 version yet.

Maybe that's what EQ needs next....Multi-Classing! LOL

That way 1 hardcore player could be a Level 65 Everything! LOL

Oh well.

Good hunting.
