Popular movies during the decade included Ghostbusters, The Karate Kid, and Back to the Future. The fashion of the decade was heavily influenced by the most popular stars of the time, including Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince, Cyndi Lauper, and many others.

Thank you for being a friend! You might be old and crotchety, but you won’t let that stop you from living! Known for your witty banter and ~colorful~ comments, you see the world as a glass half empty and you’ll be damned if you let it pass you by without taking a sip!
