Baby Huey :-) Mad Magazine and Spy Vs Spy ~my favorite! and those magazines about "true crime"! I remember much if not all of what everyone has shared here! Hop Scotch using rocks and pieces of chain and jump rope and hula hoops and jacks and MARBLES!! hated to lose my steelies and big cat eyes!

Loved the Archie comics...I just bought the Archie gets married book not to long ago.....

Steen if you do not want your childhood to end with the Harry Potter last movie release don't let it...I was afraid that the books and then the movies would take to long and I wouldn't live long enough to read and see them all.......it is sad though to see the movies ending..........

When I was a kid, my dad gave me the first Archie comic he ever had. It was about the gang learning how to use Amateur radios (a hobby of ours) and there were dinosaurs in it. I was hooked and started my own collection. My mom asked me today if she could get rid of my collection since I'm grown. Uhh, no. :P

Also, tonight is the premiere of the last Harry Potter movie. My childhood ends with this film. I remember the books coming out when I was in third grade. Been following the series since I was nine or ten, when my grandmother bought me the first three books for Christmas! It's a bittersweet day.

Rocky and Bullwinkle are the best EVER!  " Hey Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!  That trick never works!  (Bullwinkle pulls out a random large irrate creature)  No doubt about it, I got to get me another hat!"

Up here in the midwest we had Axel, Captain Kangaroo, Captain Ken, Romper Room, Clancy the Cop, and at noon, Casey Jones. The best part of our mornings before school was Axel showing "Our Gang", "Bowery Boys" and "Laurel and Hardy" proir to the bus coming to pick us up. "Three Stooges" once in awhile but rare. Fun times for us kids.. Wheaties, milk, sugar and TV.. don't get me wrong but there were cartoons also from "Rocky and Bullwinkle", "Dudley Doright", "Casper".. I'll bet you know even more them..I forgot! But then that was 50 years ago for me..
