It means three things: Night Driver the game ('cause my brain is 8-bit, so that game is basically what I see in real life), Night Rider the TV show (because my car has a name and it talks to me. Shh, don't tell anyone), and Knight Driver because I drive by the code of chivalry and only run over peasants.
I amazes me how much fun we got out of a bunch of blinking lights. There was not much more to those games than that.
I've been using the Fortune Cookie randomizer on backloggery. It's fun.
I didn't even know about those Tiger games 'til just recently.
Back then I played video games of the sports I was playing. baseball and tennis. My neighbor and his brothers played football, so they had the football games. I guess it's natural to be drawn to virtual experiences realated to your real life. I don't do that now though.
Did it go like this?
Night Driver
Drivin' through the night
Night Driver
He's not drivin' just for spite
Night Driver
He's on an important case
Night Driver
His super car can't be replaced
NIGHT. DRI-VER! NIGHT. DRI-VER! (repeat and fade)
Oh yeah Dexter's Laboratory. I loved that show "DEE DEE NO!"
This, is Dee Dee, just like my little sister who'd pal around with me and by best friend as we made home movies and recorded comedy radio shows for fun in High School. She was never meddelsome like Dee Dee though. She was always a good sport and joined in on the fun. Man, I miss those times.
GOTTA LOVE ME!
I never really watched this show regularly, but one second hearing those silly lines from Baby Sinclair and they were fused to my brain. At any spare moment I might just yell really loudly, "NOT THE MAMA!" just for giggles.
Friday nights were pizza nights at my home. My Dad and I would drive to the pizza shop and pick one up. Yeah!
Nintendo does a good job making their handhelds durable for kids. Those early handhelds were so simple though. It's hard to really break them.
I remember Simon. It was around and I played it a few times. We broke that darn Football game though.
I don't remember taking to Star Wars right away. I saw it in Martha's Vinyard on a family vacation. I was like... meh. By Empire, I was way into it though.
