1) Favourite movie of the 1980s? ET.

2) Favourite musician/group of the 1980s?
Guy, L.L. Cool J., Klimaxx, New Edition and a bunch of others that I can't remember right now. I'm not sure which one was my all-time favorite of the ones I've listed. I could do better with music from the 90s.

3) Favourite TV show of the 1980s? A Different World, The Cosby Show, the Dukes of Hazzard, Oprah, Dynasty, Knot's Landing. Again, not sure if there was just one.

4) Favourite invention of the 1980s?????? Not sure?????

5) World Event from the 1980s that stands out in your mind? Space Shuttle explosion, the We Are the World album and the reasons behind it, all of those college demonstrations I participated in against Apartied.
