Things I can’t quite shake from the 1980s: 1. The certain knowledge that one day I'll find myself trapped inside a discarded fridge, be unable to escape, and die. 2. Velour shirts on picture day. 3. Steve Perry's "Street Talk" on 12" vinyl. 4. Hard shell taco and cinnamon crispa night with my paternal grandparents. 5. The irrational, lasting, white-hot anger created that black day in 1987 when George Bell won the AL MVP trophy over Alan Trammel.

That, I'd say, is an accomplishment. Did he have icicles on his nose?

Wasn't there an episode of Punky Brewster were some kid got trapped in a discarded fridge? What do I remember this from?

@Ian: It was a "very special episode" of Punky Brewster.
