Progress

I was thinking the other day about the lists which had been posted previously and thought we should have one about the things we've seen transpire in our lifetime. Dennis and I were around to watch man land on the moon but most of you had the computer and microwave invented since you came to earth. What about it? What progress has been made or technology developed, etc?

Cell-phones, laptops, the internet. I know there are more, but I'm lost at the moment.

I remember the Challenger explosion, Reagan's assassination attempt, the Iran Contra hearings, Pong, Pac Man, King's Quest, the first computer animated short films, the first Star Wars trilogy, the first Indiana Jones, cell phones, e-mail, personal computers, the first space shuttle landing, the Mars rover, the fall of Communism and the Berlin wall, the departure of 8-tracks, vinyl records, cassette tapes, and now CDs, the home video camera, and Desert Storm.

Hilarious. Would you like to tell your nice readers about the pet brontosaur you had when you were a teenager?

Actually it was a T-Rex which was later immortalized in the Museum of Idaho, otherwise I would sick him on you!
