And since y'all mentioned some of the old toys. What about those little weird "balloons" that you blew up with a tiny straw, from that junk that came in the little tube and usually had cartoon characters on the tubes? For the life of me I can't remember what they're called. I was never able to make a single balloon outta that crap... boo...

You can be an honorary geezerette, then, Dixielady. I remember seeing what you're talking about, but I was too ooooollllldddddddd for them at the time. Does anyone remember the name of these?

Is that your way of saying you were too cool?

Or that I'm a youngster? LOL

It means I wanted that toy, but was too embarrassed to buy it b/c of my age at the time it came out.
