I know! I actually got chills when I was reading it. Even though I was born in 1977...I was still in middle school/high school from 1990-1995...so a lot of it still pertained to me.  I miss some of those things SO much.

I also still have my first set of baseball cards that I bought when I was only 5 years old. It's amazing looking at some of this stuff now. And I also have some old Christmas cards that I ended up never sending out with 29 cent stamps on them and my sloppy 6 or so year old handwriting.

Wow. I was only 1 month old when the '90s started and 10 years old when the '90s ended and I remember a lot of those things. Whenever I buy a new car for myself, I wouldn't mind having a tape deck instead of a CD player. And I always dreamed of being on Nickeldeon GUTS. I could go on all day.

Excuse Me?  How could you forget Christopher Wallace (The Notorious B.I.G.)?  His Death was Huge and made as big of an impact.  Not to mention a #1 Hit Song in Memory of him.  His death was more well known and impactful at the time than 2Pac's

Notorious B.I.G. didn't die.  He faked his own death, and now runs a bait and tackle shop in Tenessee.  This is true.  I know a guy who knows a guy who knows this girl who knows some guy who met him at the tackle shop.  He autographed this big fish

Then sit down biased people.  Sitting is better than standing anyway :P

Some of those ring true. Some didn't apply due to me not being American "You remember TGIF on ABC. Step by Step, Family Matters, Dinosaurs, and Boy Meets World." for example. (Although I remember watching all 3 shows).
