69. Dark Shadows... 70. By the time you got to college, you scheduled classes around General Hospital so you could watch Luke and Laura (and you started watching One Life to Live because you had to get to the TV room an hour early to get a good seat).

Pamy ... oh my goodness, my sister and friend Mary pretended to be Charlie's Angels once when we were hanging out at our local JC Penney's. We must have been 11 or 12. I remember some boys asking us our names and we said Kelly, Jill and Sabrina. We were such dorks!! BTW thanks for the pop rocks idea!

And if you were a young woman in the 70's... You owned a pair of hot pants...and wore them with boots or platform shoes. You wore a "jogging suit" (Extra points if it had white piping down the leg) Your wardrobe was based on earth tones unless it was 1976...then you had ample red, white, and blue. You had a dress, a skirt, or a sweater that wrapped around. You had at least one pant suit...bell bottom pants with a micro mini-dress for a top. Your appliances were harvest gold, avocado green, or coppertone. You drove a car with "fruity" colors like yellow, orange, lime green or grape. (Extra points if it was a hatchback or had a racing stripe) You watched the first episode of All My Children and remember Erica Kane before she had any husbands. All in the Family was must see tv (Bonus points if you had parents that agreed with Archie Bunker). You stayed up late to watch Johnny Carson, but changed channels if Merv was having a "theme" night. You watched the Hudson Brothers. (Hangs head in shame) You voted for the first time. The man in your life had a mustache. You had three channels on tv and were satisfied until friends invited you over to watch HBO. You had a granny coat (extra points if it was plaid). You had a t-shirt with a slogan on it...like "Keep on Trucking" or "Have a Nice Day". You had a bunch of halter tops. Your wore a scarf tied around your neck and your bangs flipped up. You had someone teach you to do the "hustle". You argued with your girlfriend who was cuter..."Newman or Redford" or "Starsky or Hutch". You traded in your pointy bra for one with a more "natural" look like "Free Spirit" ...or you went braless. You slept in a "night shirt" (Extra points if it had a number on it like a football jersey). Either you or your significant other wore "musk". And...you watched Billie Jean King win the "Battle of the Sexes" (Extra points if you had a bet with a man in your life).
