bwhsh8r

quixos
i guess we would have to define childhood or something. back then (under 12), i was a deadly serious
little shit. i didn't watch t.v.. i was out in the woods tracking animals and building forts.

today, i'm much mellower, and a whole lot more childlike. occasionally, i pour myself into a bucket
and watch an episode of TellyTubbies. no i'm not attempting to shock. it was on when my coffee was
brewing a few years ago, before i showered for work, and i got hooked.

I think I watched Spider Man and his amazing friends (The one with Fire Woman and Ice Man) more than the original Spider man cartoon.

Are you afraid of the dark was one of my favorites, before they stopped airing it on basic cable (I found a BrightHouse/Time Warner channel dedicated to "Classic Nick").

When I was younger I used to watch shows like rainbow. I recently watched it again and its shocking how its content was full of sexual innuendo's. Most the shows I did watch are so low budget its funny to imagine they kept me entertained, shows like trapdoor and button moon.

As I got older my tastes ran towards super heroes such as the hulk, fantastic four but shows like Jem, Fraggle Rock etc held a place too. I always wanted to be She-ra and have a pet tiger.
