You know you grew up in the 70’s

List for girls who Grew up in the 70’s
I would like to add to this list:
-You and your cousin (or sister) did “shows” for your family. These were dance routines to “Billy Don’t Be A Hero” or “Silly Love Songs.” You remember…”I (point with both thumbs at your chest) Love (wrists crossed against chest) You (arm out-stretched, finger pointing at bored, squirming family).”
-“The Shining” was the first scary movie you ever saw (and my last).
-You used to be “Ditto Monitor” at school.
-You would NEVER eat “Pop Rock” and drink Coke at the same time for fear your head would explode.
– You had a satin jacket with matching satin shorts and hat.
-Your Mom; colored her hair in the sink, bought her dishes at the grocery store and watched Lawrence Welk every week.
-You blew your entire back-to-school clothing allowance on one pair of Chemin De Fer Jeans.

You had a pair of these Roller Skates.

With the pom poms...

and you got back together with your seventh-grade boyfriend when it was girls-ask-boys to skate, and they played “Reunited” by Peaches & Herb.

You had a cool older brother. My brother Rob had a 1972 pea-green Plymouth Duster. This is the only picture I have of him with it. Those 110 cameras took THE worst pictures.

I guarantee that is a Sex Wax T-shirt tied around his waist and this is the eight track that was in his player.

(ELO, Telephone Line. Still a great song. It is also my default ringtone on my iPhone “Hello. How Are You? Have you been alright…”)

You remember these commercials: The Tootsie Pop Owl and this Coke one used to mesmerize young me.

You score 100% on this 1970’s TV Quiz.

You idolized Mary. Linking to myself, again, You’re Going To Make It After All.

These songs made you cry everytime you heard them.
Terry Jacks “Seasons In The Sun (young man dies)”, Henry Gross’ “Shannon (dog dies)”, Eric Carmen’s “All By Myself, (whole family dies)”, Michael Murphy’s “Wildfire (horse dies then girlfriend dies)”, Don McLean’s “Vincent (artist dies)”

And you LOVED Ponch from CHiPs, (thanks for the tip Joey) and this is your favorite scene:

(Poncharello competes in a “battle of the bands”. He loses, but gives his thumbs up at the end anyway, very classy.)

If any of these are true of you, please consult Retro Junk, Plaid Stallion, and Pink Floyd’s Fan Club Page.
