4. Me too.
Though in college I would always chuckle when I walked by the neighborhood head-shop: PuffinStuff.

5. I used to have a plastic Freddy the Flute...
:rofl: Got it off a cereal box. My whole family loved HR Pufnstuf!!! I have a Pufnstuf action figure (came out about ten years ago) and it comes with a white cowboy hat. He's in full costume, including the white gogo boots... :P

That Freddy the Flute went bye-bye when we moved to NC in 1975.... I wish I knew where it went.. :cry:

My siblings and I were huge fans of all the drug-induced Sid & Marty Krofft shows. Bugaloos, Pufnstuf, Lidsville, Sigmund & The Sea Monsters, Land of the Lost, et. al. There was even a short-lived indoor Krofft amusement park in Atlanta (where we used to live), and it was also majorly drug-induced. :P It was a lot of fun, though...

12. You and me both...
:loveya: I lived for the months David had a pull-out poster... :P :rofl: My sister was into Donny Osmond, so we usually went halvsies on Tiger Beat since she liked Donny and I liked David (and to a slightly lesser extent, Bobby).... :P

9. I never knew that I'd learn what it was like to be on an acid trip at 5 years-old.
That and the Letter People about did me in. I'm surprised I survived to see 6!

13. Feeling grovy. Open sesame. Had not thought of that show in 24 years.

I can barely recall. I suppose it will be another 20 years before I have this conversation again.

15. Jack Wild sure was cute, but
as a kid, I found Sid & Marty Krofft's stuff too creepy.
