Hello, I am Lettuce. I, like all Americans do remember 9/11 last year, as well as the exact place I was standing (junk store), and what I was doing (buying an old panasonic answering maching for real cheap, and it was an ugly wood grain) when I heard the news. But this is not what this list is all about. It is about stuff that we remember happening during our lifetimes. I am 23, and have seen some interesting things. Just follow my example, and bingo... you have a list. And they say that our generation consists of a bunch of slackers who don't care about or remember anything!

-I remember when Reagan used to interrupt all the cool TV shows with his memory-challenged speechs.
-I remember CFC's, and the banning of them.
-I remember when the Big Mac came in the earth-polluting stryofoam container.
-I remember when the government actually cared about global warming.
-I remember the gulf war.
-I remember when they would play a song on the radio called "I Want Your Sex!" (talk about subtle pick-up lines)
-I remember when AIDS became a major threat.
-I remember when the Challenger blew up.
-I remember the Exxon Valdez and the big oil spill that fucked-up Alaska's beaches and killed a lot of their wildlife.
-I remember when a shit load of people did coke... (no wonder everyone seems to be having to get nose-jobs now... if it doesn't kill you, it'll rot your nose... remember that kiddos...don't do drugs!)
-I remember when most of Sesame Streets "sketches" had disco music... and the screenwriters probabally smoked pounds of hash...
-I remember when they tried to ban 2 Live Crew's "As Nasty as they Wanna Be" album. (boy... if they only knew where rap was headed.)
-I remember listening to the Fat Boys. (you did too, I bet)

What kinds of interesting things do YOU remember?

... I am the Stallion, mang! -Ween (The Stallion Pt.2)
