Channel "U"-that takes me back!

I can hear my mom yelling at us for turning the dial too quickly, we were going to break it!

I miss after school specials too. The one about where babies came from was great-very well done and explained things clearly without being too cutsey. The only time I can remember my mom and I actually planned to watch something together and have a discussion about it, I think I was about 8 or 9. I've heard that some of the after school specials are available on dvd.

My parents had an 8 track when I was really little and I remember wondering where the click was when I'd hear songs on something other than 8 track that I normally heard on 8 track.

The coolest thing was the velvet lined box they had for taking 8 tracks in the car. Yup, there was an 8 track in the car. The case was as big as an overnight bag and held maybe 10 8 tracks, each one in its own slot, and was lined with red velvet and black leather on the outside with a lid that closed with a big clasp. Good times.
