I think the coolest thing I saw was when my family got our first microwave. That was awesome. I also remember when MTV first came on. "Video Killed the Radeo Star"!!! Remember that all you late and 30 yr olds? Gawain, just to let you know, I consider you a very blessed man to have had your childhood when you did. You have seen so many amazing changes within our country and our world. I know that every generation has some cool #### happen in it, but i can't help but dream about living in the 50's and early 60's.
