Just wondering if anyone... well anyone at all who might just read this blog by accident has stopped to notice the new cover that i just put up... a good ol fashioned tribute to VHS tapes.. remember those kids? No? Well they have kinda joined the 8-track and the cassette tape as a thing of the past. You can still get them at Rainbow's End in WolfVegas and at flea markets the Valley over... Andrew's got rid of them back in 2005.. the last VHS we had was "The Longest Yard" (Sadly not Burt... Adam Sandler) Anyways this is the collage i made the other day.. have a peek....
Can anyone out there name these flicks? Here we go...
Drumroll if you will...
Dawn of the Dead/ Jaws/ Orca: The Killer Whale/ Slumber Party Massacre II/ Pray For Death/ The Evil Dead/ First Blood/ Sleepaway Camp/ Warriors of the Wasteland/ Return of the Living Dead/ Shogun Assassin/ Kiss Meets The Phantom of the Park/ Black Belt Jones/ Scarface/ Texas Chainsaw Massacre/ 1990: The Bronx Warriors/ Gymkata/ Terror on Tour/ Mother's Day/ Dr Butcher MD/ Flesh Gordon/ A Nightmare on Elm Street/ Graduation Day/ Attack of the Killer Tomatoes/ Metalstorm/ King Frat/ Mad Max/ Yor: The Hunter From The Future/ Friday The 13th/ Death Wish 3

Wait...
Dammit i forgot Megaforce! WTF?!?!?!
I have to admit... sometimes i miss the old VHS... sometimes.. sure i don't miss the ol hack and scan transfers. but there is something nostalgic about the old VHS covers.. memories of afternoons in the Passage walking down to the Dairy Bar or when i moved to Greenwood how i would walk to the old "ABC Video" or "10 To 10 Video" in Kingston.. even memories of good ol' Andrews here in Middleton... RIP.. days that are gone.. but still fresh in the mind.. they say don't let the past overrule your present.. but sometimes it is good to reminisce of times past where we didn't have an internet... everyone didn't have a cell phone and texting.. a simpler time indeed...
Heck! I still miss cassettes!
You too eight tracks... ya i admitted it... jeesh..
Have a good one folks!
