Rayn:

Rayn: Dang! For some reason, the short story, “A Modest Proposal,” written in 1729 by Jonathan Swift, comes to mind! If you have some time, check it out:

The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my post, “Atari 1040ST PC Version of Introduction Song to the Classic Video Game, ‘Alternate Reality: The City’“…

Rayn: This never ceases to put a smile on my face! 🙂

Steven C.: I never heard of the game

Rayn: It’s from 1986, but I first played it when I was eight years old. Most probably haven’t heard of it, but it’s still one of my favorite games of all time! It brings back so many memories when I listen to the songs from it! I had to upload them to YouTube myself, since I couldn’t find the Atari 1040ST version, which sounds somewhat different from other versions, since it’s from a computer, and not a console, like all of the other ones I found on YouTube. 

Rayn: I was eight years old in 1988, by the way. 🙂

Sara: I love this song. It’s still so catchy!

Rayn: ‘Tis true!

Sara: Who remembers this Kix commercial from 1989? My son was eating Kix and making so much noise crunching on them and it reminded me of this

Rayn: I remember!  I used to wonder why the kid didn’t just eat the ones in the bowl, instead of eating them off of the decoration…

Sara: lol it was more fun sliding them off the string!

Rayn: I figured it would be more fun to eat handfuls, like popcorn! I guess that’s just me!

Rose E.: Ah… Takes me back.

Luis G.: i do！

Sara: So insane that this is 24 years old!
