Going to the arcade with my brothers and friends.

Going to Blockbuster trying to find games and movies to rent.

Watching Nickelodeon and The Disney Channel (back when it was a premium channel)

Good fucking times.

How bout you, CE?

I remember the moment Disney channel got added to the regular cable package. I knew it was coming. Every day it was still blurred like PPV used to be. Then one day it came on. I think it was an NSYNC concert but I was still excited >_>

Yeah, same for me, I used to spend massive amounts of time at Blockbuster looking for something new and interesting to appear, whether a movie or a game. Many times, though, I would just either come back home empty handed, or end up renting something I already rented out before, or something that I was hardly interested in just for the sake of not having it be an empty trip.

The days of scrambled channels.

Had some great times watching Playboy and the Spice channel. Trying to figure out if I'm seeing boobs or something else. Then there's moments everything would become clear and you could see everything.

Monday night wars

That's a good one. I would always watch Raw and pay per views with my grandma. She was probably a bigger fan than me. She always loved Jake the Snake.

The usual price for pay per views was around 30 bucks iirc. I remember the first pay per view we got was SummerSlam when Macho Man was getting married to Miss Elizabeth.

During some major PPV boxing fights, I'd spend the last hour of the PPV checking in every so often to try to get an idea of how the card was turning out with the main event. Basically in between some screaming and whether the announcers were hyped and ecstatic or not, you could somewhat figure out who was winning.

Wander the grass fields.

Avoid getting set on fire by the other kids.

Not understand the other kids because they didn't speak English.

Play with the neighbor's rats.

Go to religious meetings and recite prayers in the name of Bahá'u'lláh.

Get beaten by the babysitter's kids.

Did you guys do any of those things?

I didn't realize how cool it was to have it near my house until I was into adulthood. I guess I thought most other places had watering holes like this. There are more of these types of places scattered all over central Texas. Hamilton's Pool is probably the prettiest.

Look at this, this looks like a painting!!

Wow, soothing just by looking at it. Fantastic places.

Scottie Pippen is the reason I'm a Blazers fan today. I was your typical bulls bandwagon rider in the 90s but loved Pippen. Followed him to the rockets then when he got traded to Portland I finally started following the NBA more closely. It's stuck with me almost 2 decades later.

We recorded them every Sunday for a couple years. We actually still have the tapes somewhere.

It's funny going back to watch them with all the old commercials intact.
