(note: Punky Brewster was only in syndication from 86'-88) Penelope "Punky" Brewster was played by a great little actress named Soleil Moon Frye. <img src="http://backintheday.blogharbor.com/lilpunky.jpg" height="192" width="153"><img style="width: 127px; height: 190px;" src="http://backintheday.blogharbor.com/soleilmoon_now.jpg" height="211" width="118"> Yeah... she's grown up... if you call 5'1 grown up, ha, ha. <img style="width: 168px; height: 200px;" src="http://backintheday.blogharbor.com/soleil_stuff.jpg" height="464" width="237"> Besides turning into my sexual fantasy, Soleil did quite a bit in the 90's.  In about 1993 Soleil's breasts were so big that kids called her Punky "boobster".   <img style="width: 148px; height: 113px;" src="http://backintheday.blogharbor.com/soleil_before_reduction1.jpg" height="306" width="450"><img style="width: 92px; height: 120px;" src="http://backintheday.blogharbor.com/soleil_before_reduction2.jpg" height="262" width="190"><img style="width: 87px; height: 116px;" src="http://backintheday.blogharbor.com/soleil_before_reduction3.jpg" height="280" width="153"> UUUHH, yeah.. Relax perverts!  She was only about 16 in these pictures.  Unfortunately she had a breast reduction because her breast were so huge they were giving her back problems.  She went from about a 36DD to a 34C.  The sad truth is that she would have gotten much more work if she'd have dealt with the back problems like Dolly Pardon did.  Hey, Soleil.. you don't hear Dolly complaining! Anyway, in the 90's she directed Wild Horses (which she co-wrote with her brother), she took to the stage in The Housekeeper and Orestes, I Murdered My Mother and she took a role in the sit com, Friends. I don't feel she has gotten the respect she deserves in Hollywood (if she'd kept her breasts she definitely would NOT have gotten the respect she deserves).  But I also think she will get another break out role to surpass the cult fame of Punky Brewster.  Since she is not a quiter, I'm sure she will find it.  In '98 Soleil broke my heart and married Jason Goldberg, who is now the father of her child. Soleil also went to college and studied sociology.  She started a web business called WebStation.com in 2000.  This is my kind of woman.  She is smart, sexy, and creative.  The business did not do well but I'm very impress that she had the guts to try it.  And Soleil, if you ever read this, Blogs are the way to go now, just look at <a href="http://www.wilwheaton.net/">Wil Wheaton</a>! In 2000, Soleil took the role of Roxie King in Sabrina, the Teenage Witch.  I was surprised to find out that Soleil is the voice of Zoey Howzer on Disney's The Proud Family, which also features two of my favorite comedians, Tommy Davison and Cedric the Entertainer. Soleil now as a daughter.  On August 24, 2005, Poet Goldberg was born. Congradulations, Soleil!  I look forward to seeing you on the big screen.  Email me (elamb.security<at>gmail<dot>com)..

As a child of the 80's we all remember certain events that shaped our lives, y'know molded us into the law abiding citizens we are today.  In other words-whuppins (timeout did not exist in the 80's, it was called time to heal).   I vividly remember one morning when I failed to make my bed before the bus arrived (I was about 7).  No big deal right?  Wrong!  My father was a Marine who expected your bed to be made good enough to bounce a quarter off it.  I remember my Dad asking me, "Why didn't you make your bed?"  I just remember being frozen in fear and the only thing I could say was, "I don't know."  "You don't know?", he growled.  "Don't worry cause when you get home I'm going to break you up."  "Break you up" was my Dads favorite saying.  My brother and sisters all knew all hope was lost after he said these words.   It was the equivalent of being sentenced to the electric chair with no hope of a pardon from the Governor.  You have to understand we were terrified of my Dad.  He was judge, jury and executioner.  My Dad was very strict.  He wanted things done a certain way and when you didn't do it, you got beat down.  I remember going to school paralyzed in fear.  Fear griped me like baseball.  During recess I didn't even participate, I sat down with the bad kids.  All day I stared at the clock as it counted down to my execution.   When the final bell sounded  to go home I remember the voice in my head saying, "Damn it, why didn't you just make up the bed?!"  "Now I gotta get my ass whupped because of you."          The buss ride home was a quick one.  I came through the front door with the stealth of a burglar, or so I thought.  My Father was in the living room watching a  movie when he spotted me.  "Hey Shon!", he blurted out with a big smile on his face.  "What's up?"  At this time my senses were on full alert, "Was this some sort of sick joke?",  I thought.  I replied "Nothing ",  in a very solemn tone.  My Dad then said he had some errands to run and asked if I wanted to go with him.  I went, but I was paranoid the whole time. "Is he going to beat me or not?", the fear of the unknown was overwhelming.  I remember telling myself If I make it to bedtime I'm home free.                    When bedtime came my Dad tucked me in and then reminded me to say my prayers.  He walked out my room and turned out the lights.  I got down on my knees and  thanked God  for protecting me throughout the day.   At that moment the light came on  and my Dad  was standing over me welding the belt in his hand like it was the whip from Indiana Jones.  "Oh you thought I forgot huh?!"  (Folks, I couldn't make this up if I tried) There was no escape.  He then proceeded to whup me like a rented mule. My Winnie the Pooh blanket offered little protection against this onslaught.  Nothing got past my Dad.  To this day I don't know which was worst, the whupping or the mind games.

It started out innocently enough.  I wanted to stay out later than usual and she said no.  I  flashed.  I'd had enough of people telling me what to do.  It was at that point I temporarily lost my mind and raised my hand to my mom.  The red veins in her eyes, the scowl on her face was like a horrible obsenity.  Thats when I KNEW I made a grave mistake.  I put my hand down hoping she might think I was just stretching or something, but it was too late.  She plunged her fist into my bony chest.  It happened in slow motion.  My back hit the wall and she cursed me out like I had just called her a "bitch".  <div style="margin-left: 40px;">"What'choo gonna do now, NIGGA!"  </div> You have to understand, my mom ain't no punk.  She'll fight a dude.  She's from the streets.  All I can do is laugh when I think about it now, but back then I was crushed.  Although she through a decent punch it was the pain that drew tears.  You see, for that moment, I was not her son; I was a 13 year old kid that was going to get monkey stomped.  My mom later explained that it was a matter of principal.  She said that she could not allow her kids to walk all over her.  She was getting older and if any of her kids ever attempted to hurt her, no matter what age she was would have to hurt them... bad.  She said, "If I allow any of your guys to do that kinda stuff now, what will you do when you get older." We got some bad whuppin's with those racing car tracks, we got yelled at all that.  Was it abuse... HELL YES!!  Did it work, Hell yes.  Listen I got beat with racing car tracks when I was a kid my mom didn't do it for sport.  She was a single mother with four kids she did not have time to play games.  And I'll tell you this if I EVER got caught with a pipe bomb or plans to terrorize my school I would have been hospitalized.  I'm not endorsing child abuse.  But I do beleive that leniency has gotten outside the realm of common sense with our kids.  I mean, in California there are parents that have gotten sued by their kids and even arrested for disciplining their own kids in public.  And people wonder why kids are sometimes completely out of control and grow up being murderers.  There must be balance. <div style="margin-left: 40px;"> </div> Main Page Growing up in the 80's Sat, 03 Dec 2005 03:03:44 -0500 Sat, 03 Dec 2005 03:03:44 -0500 publish 0 html 1 1 Rob Hotwheels Orange Race Tracks <div style="text-align: center;"><img style="width: 264px; height: 198px;" src="http://backintheday.blogharbor.com/hotwheels_orange_track.jpg"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;">Hot Wheels Race Track - 21" long </div> In the 80s, I recall the rise of child abuse awareness.  It was on the Afterschool specials. Good Times even had an episode in which Penny (Janet Jackson) was getting beat.  This was actually the first episode with Penny and I remember it because it really had an affect on me.  Penny was getting burned with an iron.  Her mom was crazy as hell. In elementary, the teachers would tell us every now and again what to look out for and who we could tell if it was happening to us.  And they covered all kinds of abuse: Sexual, mental, physical, everything... But they did not cover the "Orange racing track" abuse. I remember when I got the orange racing track for Christmas. I must have been about 6 or 7.  They were really cool 'cause you could connecting them into loops or just make extra long tracks for your hot wheels.  I learned very quickly to hate these tracks though because they became like a ninja weapon for my mom.  Aw, good times.  It make me shutter to look at those orange strip of pain even to this day.  Main Page Growing up in the 80's Sat, 03 Dec 2005 22:22:31 -0500 Sat, 03 Dec 2005 22:22:31 -0500 publish 1 html 1 1 Rob MAME Jump Donkey Kong sings Van Halen's 'Jump' while video clips of old-school Atari 2600 & 8-bit Nintendo (NES) games play in the background.

A german born director, Uwe Boll (director of both House of the Dead and Alone in the Dark, movies) will be taking the helm of the movie.  It is unknown whether or not Gary will slip in his famous "What Choo talkin' bout, Willis!?" line in Postal.     I was hoping that Gary would be the main character but he is just making a cameo appearance because he was in Postal 2, the game.  The Postal franchise is like an early version of Grand Theft Auto in which going on a murderous rampage is as common place as skipping through a beautiful park. Here is what Boll had to say about Postal: "I see it like a mirror for our society -- funny, violent, absurd!" he declared. "So then the movie must be powerful, strange, and so full of the game's political incorrect outrageousness that if we do it correct, we will all probably end up in jail!" It is news like this that begs the question: "What the hell is the matter with Western Civilization?"

Small Wonder was a young lady by the name of Tiffany Brissette.  Now as I've been digging around for more information on Tiffany I found lots of fan pages on the Net but not a single current picture or any current news on Tiffany Brissette and it is driving me crazy!  I guess she became a devout Christian (appeared on 700 Club in 91) and went to college to get a BS in Psychology.  According to IMDB.COM: <div style="margin-left: 40px;">"Tiffany later received her bachelor's degree in psychology from a prestigious college in California and has become heavily involved with children and young adults as a counselor in San Diego, California. She has not returned to television in almost ten years."</div> I don't blame her for getting out the public eye. Shes fantastic made of plastic/She brings laughter every where. <div style="text-align: center;"><img style="width: 338px; height: 265px;" src="http://backintheday.blogharbor.com/smallwonder_alyssa.jpg"> </div> Here is a picture of Tiffany Brissette, Josie Davis, and Allyssa Milano (She has been fine since the day she was born.  Now Milano is in her 30's (see Charmed) and I just don't see how see can get any hotter). Most recent work by Tiffany: <a href="http://www.gbgm-umc.org/nillconf/order.htm">WHY CHRISTMAS TREES AREN'T PERFECT</a> - She does voice work in what I assume is a christian video (haven't seen it).  She did this in 1990. Most everything else I've found about Tiffany is her doing good deeds for people.  1986: "Balloons Across San Diego. Balloons were launched from malls all around the county, with each one representing a dollar donated to help Father Joe Carroll and the Saint Vincent DePaul homeless shelter. The first celebrity of the morning to appear was Tiffany, and she made quite an impression." - <a href="http://tbfriend.tvheaven.com/page1.html">Childhood friend of Tiffany's</a> "Tiffany was working with another charity, a make-a-wish foundation type project, and she’d befriended a young cancer patient who was dying, and had recently told Tiffany she had never been to Disneyland." - <a href="http://tbfriend.tvheaven.com/page1.html">Childhood friend of Tiffany's</a> "As of February 2, 2000, Tiffany has been a missionary and youth counselor and vocalist at the <a href="http://www.solanapres.org/">Solana Beach Presbyterian Church in San Diego</a>. Wish her new life well." -- <a href="http://members.surfbest.net/smallwonder@surfbest.net/SWonTV/Tiffany-bio.html">Biography of Tiffany Brissette</a> Looks like Tiffany is really making a difference.  Whats  up Gary Coleman?  Don't let her feed and teach more children then you!!

She was ALWAYS hot.  Any young man (and probably even a few girls) who grew up in the 80s would agree she was definitely one of the cuttest bits of boy candy on T.V. at the time!  She's no longer cute, though.  Now she is unbelievably mouth watering!!  LOOK AT THIS: <img style="width: 152px; height: 224px;" src="http://www.80srewind.net/alyssa_milano1.jpg"><img style="width: 148px; height: 209px;" src="http://www.80srewind.net/alyssa_milano2.jpg"><img style="width: 142px; height: 123px;" src="http://www.80srewind.net/alyssa_milano3.jpg">This women gets better with age. </div></div> Main Page Thu, 19 Jan 2006 22:19:07 -0500 Thu, 19 Jan 2006 22:19:07 -0500 publish 1 html 1 1 Rob Janet Jackson (and her nipple) top Google Search for 2005 In a year of devastating natural disasters and terrorist attacks, Janet Jackson was the most popular search subject on Google.

The ubiquitous eighties insanity has ravaged the fashion world, again. Gag me with a spoon! Written by: Johneen Manning The styles strutting down fashion catwalks this season suggest the answer is "yes". The ubiquitous eighties insanity has ravaged the fashion world, again. Gag me with a spoon! Leg warmers paired with stiletto heels? What am I saying - leg warmers period? Slouch boots? Teased hair? Oh, and let's not forget the iridescent blue eye shadow and frosted lipstick. Yes, they've all risen from their all-too-shallow graves and are packing a punch in 21st century trends. Don't as me why, because I don't know. All I can do is shake my head and protest that it's hip to be square. Let's briefly review and you can decide whether or not you'd like to join the new retro crowd. I propose we get the absolute disasters out of the way first. It seems that ruffled mini skirts have found their way back into fashion, except they've shrunk. I remember wearing those when I was ten. Call me nostalgic about some things, but certainly not that garish number. And then there's that issue of the leg-warmer. In my view, these knitting mishaps are acceptable only if you're figure-skating, and even then, they're questionable. If your legs are cold, put on a pair of bloody pants! I can only pray that acid-washed jeans (and colored jeans in general) never see the light of day again. I'm still trying to forget that nasty episode of bubblgum jeans. Black and white pairings are big again, but let's just hope we're spared the agony of neon, spandex and ultra-tacky brooches! Now, even I must admit that certain localized 80s elements may be safely extracted from the otherwise tacky decade and inserted tastefully into contemporary fashion. For example, the wide belt is a smart addition to new millennium fashion. It's all about balance, though: a flashy, funky belt is clever only when accessorizing a relatively simple skirt, pant or dress. A snazzy belt is a great way to dress up a pair of sexy jeans and shows that you really know how to accessorize. Pull it together with a coordinating shoe or boot to complete the look. I can't say enough about the bold new colors, patterns and heels that are emerging this season. Designers are really having a lot of fun with accessories, so take the plunge and invest in at least one quality bag, boot and belt trio that will carry you through countless outfits. Another brief moment of 80s greatness can be found in the fishnet stocking, which is officially leading the way in the hosiery revival. This naughty accessory is actually a double retro, as fishnets were also all the rage in the 1960s, and have long been associated with cabaret dancers, ladies of the night, and punk rockers. In their newest incarnation, fishnets have been pronounced chic by designers and have been making splashes all over runways this season. Designers are playing with scale and playing with a range of mesh sizes. The nets are widely available in classic black as well as many updated options including cocoa, white, nude, and even red! Update work attire with more conservative neutral colors. Some fashionistas are even layering fishnets over brightly colored hosiery; not my thing, but give it a try if it interests you. A general rule: if you snag 'em, bag 'em. Holes and runs in hosiery (especially fishnets) are never cool. Never. Off-the-shoulder shirts and sweaters will always be hot. A pair of comfy jeans paired with a knit sweater that reveals a peek of bare shoulder emits the message that you're sexy, especially when you're not trying. Bohemian-style floral print shirts and skirts are another casually sexy look that are making a comeback - separately, of course. This look is also a double deja vu, hailing previously from the 1960s and 70s. The object here is not to look psychedelic, though, so don't' overdo it: Pair a flowing feminine peasant blouse with a solid pair of slacks or skirt. Likewise, a floral skirt should go with a solid top. The denim jacket is a trendy casual fall item that looks great with a chunky scarf and an otherwise non-denim outfit, such as a tweed skirt with flat-heeled suede leather boots. Yes, it's from the 80s, but the jean jacket is a great way to dress something down. I can only pray that acid-washed jeans (and colored jeans in general) never see the light of day again. I'm still trying to forget that nasty episode of bubblegum jeans. The upside to this fashion exercise in regurgitation is that the eighties were recent enough that local thrift stores are stacked to the gills with eighties-wear. If you insist on returning to the crazy 80s, dig out your old Madonna tapes and have fun. I on the other hand will extract what I like and wait it out.

But my bike got stolen not even a week after I bought it with my hard earned money.  The bike was $149 which was a LOT of money for a 14 year old in the 80s.  That experience changed my perspective on the area I lived in and the people around me.  It is difficult to savor a steak around hungry dogs.  I guess its like Mos Def says in Got: "There's hunger in the street that is hard to defeat/Many steal for sport, but more steal to eat." I'm a bit jaded by this and many other experiences I had in the 80s on haves vs. have nots.  Main Page Growing up in the 80's Tue, 24 Jan 2006 23:08:27 -0500 Tue, 24 Jan 2006 23:08:27 -0500 publish 1 html 1 1 Rob Computing Magazine, 26 years ago Back in 1980, computing magazines printed BASIC programs in their pages and some even printed short stories.

That's why 80s partys are so popular lately. Perhaps the reason that 80s parties are getting so popular is due to us 80s kids being in our mid 20's to early 40s as of 2006. They called us Generation X because no one could determine what we wanted and nothing really define us as a generation (no apocalyptic wars, or disasters - pre9/11 anyway). I've noticed that a lot of the pictures I've seen online of <a href="http://www.80srewind.net/80s/80sparty.htm">80s partys</a> are from young college kids and high school seniors that were probably conceived in the 80s.

I think that is because I was born in 1975 and can relate to every word you say. Sometimes I feel that it was just yesterday I was sitting in front of the TV on Saturday morning watching cartoons. The time frame when we were born was very unique. As I see us born to the end of the seventies, and luckily growing as children of the eighties. We had the opportunity to watch our older siblings awkwardly / Bravely take on new bold fashions. And then are turn, entering us in to the nineties were it was thought that the generation x was going to end the civilized way of thinking and not amount to anything but a bunch of lazy video game junkies. But in reality we were the birth of a new generation of children that today thanks to us have a new direction to take on. The 80's were just a fun Void in life; stuck between two generations. I am very happy and proud to say that I was a part of that.
