Oh, the '90s. I love you so.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I feel like I missed the '90's. Possibly because for 4 years I worked 40 hours a week and went to college full time and did theatre, followed by 2 years of theatre with a crazy woman and a second job, from which I got fired, had a nervous breakdown, and moved home with my mom, working retail and theatre to make $10K a year.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Pictures that perfectly capture the 90s.
From those pictures:
Dennis Rodman, Scottie Pippin, and Michael Jordan
HELLS YEAH.

Wow, those are amazing.
... although the Gap ad isn't too bad, except for the necklace.

Our wings are not tired.
So many of those pictures are unfamiliar. My kids were born in 92 and 94 so I think I may have been busy at the time.
Lots of you are friends on Facebook, but if not I think the link to Kayaking Laura will still work. And do the friend request thing we haven't done that yet. [link] The first trip was pure delight.

That's what I thought about the Gap ad, too.
I also really liked the growing-up of Leonardo DiCaprio.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Those pictures are hilarious. Sophia, there's definitely something different about the decade you were a kid in vs. the decade you became an adult in. When I was a kid and they called me Uncle Jesse, they meant the Dukes of Hazzard. When I was working at an afterschool program in college and they called me Uncle Jesse, they meant Full House.

Also, I'm currently watching the American Experience Clinton biography, so am filled with renewed love for early-90s Bill and Hillary, Al and Tipper.

Also, I can't go for it if he's going to be terrorized *and* marking all over the house if we do.
Cat marking is the worst. How sad that Switch doesn't enjoy the dog. Companionship is so nice.
I've been trolling Petfinder like an obsessed person. My favorite 'ad' today featured a caption for a Basset photo that said, "Kitty not included." That is one cat-friendly dog!
eta: Lordy. Not only did I say it twice, but in the wrong thread!
Nevermind!

Ooooohkay. Didn't need to be said twice.
I can say that Pork Chop's foster is being very communicative. Good sign.
