Another decade that I like, is the 80s. Well, mostly the first half, but there was a lot of good things to come out of this decade, all around. This is the song that got me liking the 80s, once more, in 1996.

On the television side of things, I really liked the Saturday morning cartoons.

Hulk Hogan's Rock n Wrestling
The Dukes of Hazard Cartoon
Rubix
He Man and The Masters of The Universe
Sherah Princess of Power
Care Bears
Alvin and The Chipmunks
Dungeons and Dragons
My Little Pony
Transformers

I'm shaking in my army boots, right now, just begging to go back to the 80s. I don't like the world, as it is, today.
