  2. I agree - the sappiness makes me admire it more. No need for the big dance chorus - just bad hair and bad dance moves! Of course, it probably looked a bit different back then...

    Thanks, Gary :)

  5. It is amazing how bad our hair was back then - it was the hair products. They were BAD! What did we have Wella Balsom as the top contender? And then probably Head and Shoulders.

    Thank goodness for better hair products nowadays. And no more alcohol products which dried out hair so much! Oh, and lets not forget to blow dry the dried out hair afterwards... too funny.

    Thank goodness for technology and progress :)
