Yes, this photo was taken before Star Tours got its makeover so if they don’t go to Endor anymore…well, I’m just not cool enough to know. Please accept this photo … Continue reading "The End of Star Tours"

Hummel Bell Ringers

Posted on by Lisa Berton
I know people who collect Hummel figurines, a series that originates in Germany. As is with many collectors, they want every piece of a series or in my case everything having to do with the movie Grease.

Children born in the 1970’s experienced all kinds of cool pop culture like singer/songwriters, Grease, The Muppet Show, Barbie dolls, and Etch-A-Sketch. They were also subjected to horrific ordeals like wearing polyester and bell bottom pants. Photos serve as incriminating evidence. Yuck! Ok so the 70’s had it’s share of good and bad influences on … Continue reading "Foosball and Transportation for Giant Kids"
