Hee hee, I just always have to fight someone to get the remote control. We only had one TV with cable when I was growing up, up until the beginning of high school which I shared with 4 other people and whoever the heck else felt like staying for dinner. Am I missing out? I wanted to read the book the Outsiders when I was in elementary school, but by the time that I was in the right grade to read it, my teacher changed the curriculum.
They always had re-runs of Flashdance on Brazilian television growing up. And unlike you, it was just me and my sister after school (she did homework) and I was infatuated with the main actress.
