      Its so bizarre to look at these. They look a little alien now but also familiar, warm and safe.

      Girls with big poofy 80s hair, still works for me.

          Yeah I thought this thread was a bit of a deja vu. I miss those days back in the 80's shopping at the mall for records, CDs, "cool" clothes, etc.

            Wish there were locations with the pics, that XMas shot sure looks like the Northwoods Mall in Peoria.

              It's dangerous to think what a match would have done if struck on those places. There was enough hair spray on the girls AND guys to see the flames from space.

                Very fun to see. I wish they had some toy stores.

                        I remember Malls looking that. Bustling with activity and packed with all kinds of neat stores. Went to one of the Malls around me the other day and it was practically a ghost town. Most of the stores are gone.
                        You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                          The guy who put this book out probably thought it would be a novetly book but instead watch it become a best seller real fast!
