I also remember when TV channels didn't change their programming but once a year. So I knew exactly what was coming on every night of the week.

I remember when my city got a second PBS station that was only on the air between 7pm and midnight, and yet I was still excited because it was one more station to possibly watch.

No, never did own White Lion, but I did have the Miami Vice sdtk (tv, not the movie)

What else did I own that would be embarrassing now...

I remember when afternoon cartoons were preempted by stupid fucking specials teaching lessons about knocked up teenage sluts and drug use. :smt013

Now we just call that MTV's fall schedule.

Ah yes! I remember the first time I stayed up late enough to see that. I thought I was one supercool night owl.

I remember 8-tracks, especially Roger Whitaker's "O Mammy Blue".

The 8-track! Nothing like having your favorite song briefly interrupted so it could *clunk clunk* over to the next track. :-D
