Israel Day Parades and Solidarity Sundays (March for Soviet Jewry) when the entire Jewish world would come out and join together for a common cause.
Pacman, Frogger and Centipede (I’m with the Goq on Atari)
Living in Queens as a teenager and being able to go to Manhattan by yourself by subway to meet friends.
Spending summers (in the late 80’s) working in the Wall Street area and going to lunch concerts in the World Trade Center plaza.
Non-schmutzy movies you could go to, like E.T.
Rolling filberts at shul on yontif afternoons (went to YI of Hillcrest recently for a simcha and the concrete walls were gone!)
Having to work so hard in order to do something you weren’t supposed to, that it wasn’t worth the risk!!!
