80's always left a bad taste in my mouth for being the decade in which the fur boom died. Glad you liked it.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Never saw that one, and judging from the video clip I'm GLAD I never did, lol. I liked Ninja Turtles too.

Wasn't it in the 90's when the I would rather go naked campaign began. That sure brought the animal rights people to the forefront of society.

Just the opposite for me. I remember the early eighties as a time that paid tremendous money for possums!

Early 80's was great! I was referring to the market after Black Monday (October 19, 1987) Worldwide losses on the stock market of an estimated 1.7 trillion. Suddenly fur was something people could do without. Prices plummeted.

I hear ya' Carl, I think it was 87 when everything completely tanked. I was just trying to keep my glass half full wink

Proud to say...I made it though the 80's

That was a decade of partying...
