That part used to freak me out when i was little.

That scared me for years. Nightmare on Elm Street had nothing on that one scene.

Actually, I used to snowboard a lot in the mid-eighties. It was the natural thing to do when the winter would come along and skateboarding was slowed due to snow and rain all the time. My first board was a Burton Backhill bought for me by a really good friend. I think it cost her about $150. I also believe it was one of Burton's first snowboards... maybe not the first, but close to. It was heavy, had metal rails on the side and your feet were not held in place very snuggly by the rubber slides. I still rode that thing religiously for two winters before quitting snowboarding. I wish I still had the board... I saw this one on ebay going for $999!

Does any one remember popples? Those little stuffed animals that folded into themselves and made a ball? This one right here looks ultra gay. I remember there were some for boys that turned into footballs basketballs and soccerballs so boys didnt feel so gay about playing with them.
