A Little Time Travel Fun

I'm sharing a link today that should be a little fun. You Tube Time Machine - I chose the year I was born and got a wonderful vintage commercial about "Barbie" and her fashion selection.

I remember my first Barbie Doll. That was back when G.I.Joe was the same size and they dated - unless you could afford to have a Ken doll too.

Anyway - have some fun, and tell me about your finds.

REMINDS ME OF A JOKE SOMEONE SENT ME BY E-MAIL:

The Divorced Barbie Doll

One day a father gets out of work and on his way home he suddenly remembers that it's his daughter's birthday. He pulls over to a Toy Shop and asks the sales person, 'How much for one of those Barbie's in the display window?' The salesperson answers, 'Which one do you mean, Sir? We have: Work Out Barbie for $19.95, Shopping Barbie for $19.95, Beach Barbie for $19.95, Disco Barbie for $19.95, Ballerina Barbie for $19.95, Astronaut Barbie for $19.95, Skater Barbie for $19.95, and Divorced Barbie for $265.95'.

The amazed father asks: 'It's what?! Why is the Divorced Barbie $265.95 and the others only $19.95?'

The annoyed salesperson rolls her eyes, sighs, and answers: 'Sir..., Divorced Barbie comes with: Ken's Car, Ken's House, Ken's Boat, Ken's Furniture, Ken's Computer, one of Ken's Friends, and a key chain made with Ken's balls
