Interesting to see Reggie Jackson in an Angels uniform while filming an ad for Panasonic at the Oakland Coliseum parking lot.

1:30 MTV! haha that’s exactly how I remember the MTV commercials! 2:01 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar basketball, guest starring on TV shows, and these days writing TV shows episodes! 3:55 Creepshow and Creepshow 2 are those movies that I’m glad I have on DVD. 8:47 Sammy Davis and Sarah Rawls! 9:48 Voyagers! Still miss this show. 10:03 Chris Pine’s dad! 10:08 KMEL! Was the station! 106.1 had Theo Mizohura (sp?) and Ranell… it was the station. KSOL 107.7 was another one. I didnt know 106.1 was ever a rock station tho.
