Sizzler menu ca. 1986

To think, those seafood prices were considered expensive then. I had a combo from In N Out that cost that much a couple of days ago.

Who remembers when Burger King had the Pizza double cheeseburger and Taco double cheeseburger? It was only available for a little over a year from 1985-1986 and I remember how delicious they both were.

40 years ago today, a Dallas oil executive and rancher took a shower. FIO if you know why this was such a big deal

For context, this was the infamous "Shower Scene" that re-introduced the character of Bobby Ewing on the TV show "Dallas". This was noteworthy because it brought the character back to life after the actor (the great Patrick Duffy) decided to return to the series.
