    Everyone seems to be enjoying the Disney trivia and 80's things keep popping up, so I thought I'd start an 80's trivia thread.

    First Question:
    What was the only Bruce Springsteen single of the 80's to reach as high as no.2 on the Billboard Hot 100?

    Born to Run?

    You guys are too young for me! I'd do better telling you Donny Osmond's first hit, lol! The only reason I know anything about "Bruce the Boss" is because I had a teeny-bopper room mate who responded to Bruce at 18 the way I responded to Donny Osmond at 14!

    Ooo, I know this one too, A-1 steak sauce.

    I am a product of the 80's. I graduated highschool in 1988.

    A weird tid bit about me, when I was a kid I used to memorize commerical jingles and would go aroung singing them all the time. So, I will probably do pretty well with commericals. Also in high school I was BIG into music. I would attend concerts reularly and worked at a record store(what's record;) ) as my high school job, so, Bring on the trivia!

    Who always said, "Kiss My Grits!"
    (Hint- she said it to her boss a lot. You get extra credit if you can name him too.)
