I bought music on cassette and again on CD, but never on 8-track.

I don’t remember where I was on 9/11 but I was drinking a lot back then so that doesn’t say much.

I’m barely able to remember watching Star Wars in the summertime in the theatre.

My first memory of TV was Gorbachev talking to Thatcher.

I watched the twin towers fall but none of it connected and never gave me the fanatical patriotism it was supposed to.

I was born the same year Pizza Hut introduced Stuffed Crust pizza!

The opening scene to Apollo 13 (1995) features a party in Houston with NASA dudes as they gather around the television and Walter Cronkite announces as Neil Armstrong takes his first step on the moon. ( On YouTube )

I was not at that party, but I was at a party in Houston with NASA dudes as we watched the very first moon landing. My dad was a mission control guy with the black horn-rimmed glasses, white shirt and black tie, but not Apollo 12, not 11 (Neil Armstrong) or 13 (the one that blew up and barely made it home).

I couldn’t walk yet, and I got that the space man on the screen was super important, but at the time I was missing a whole lot of context. The blanks would fill in with time, since the US was super proud of that moment. It’s my very first memory.

If your friend could tap on your CD player without it skipping, you were cool

my first video game was Prince of Persia on a 386 processor, my age was in the single digits

My first tv was black/white and had 8 dials to tune the 8 channels.

Much of my childhood was spent watching BAMZOOKi and Jungle Run on CBBC.

There were no TV commercials on Sunday.
