Funny, these toys are still popular over 30 years later

I had a bunch of those Star Wars figures and the space ships, X-wing fighters, etc... I remember pulling the arm off Luke Skywalker and telling everyone that Darth Vader cut it off with the light saber.

I also had the Lincoln Logs, Legos, Rock Em' Sock Em's, the Evil Kenevil motorcycle and bus and half a garage filled with sporting goods.

But the thing I liked playing with most was the little girl who lived diagonally across the street. She was so cute with her little white knee highs and pig tails. If I only had half a clue as to what I should have been doing. Oh, the good old days.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
