My Teenage Heartthrob - Ralph Macchio


I feel sorry for the teenage girls today. They didn't have the chance to have a crush on Ralph Macchio.

Oh, Ralph, my macho, macho guy,
You were buried when my teenage sighs
Left me as adulthood came
And so it's adulthood years I blame
For the memory loss of my teenage crush
Crazy over you, I missed you very much.


Eight is Enough, I think it was on TV every Monday night. Oh, it was one of my favourites and I could not miss a single episode, especially after Ralph arrived! He was absolutely cute and that was when I decided I would only like Italian boys. And I loved pretty Nancy, played by Dianne Kay.



I loved Ralph Macchio. Karate Kid!



And then came Karate Kid 2. Hated the Japanese girl he was in love with.
I wished I was her! I really wanted to marry him.

I had forgotten all about him until I was told that he's on Dancing With The Stars. So thank you to youtube, here's sharing with you a really charming, young almost-50 Ralph Macchio!!!

Remington Steele


Oh, how suave Pierce Brosnan was when he first appeared on my TV life! He was unbelievably the finest-looking man ...until Tom Cruise.


Anyway, it starred Stephanie Zimbalist as private detective Laura Holt and Pierce Brosnan as a roguish former white-collar thief and former con man who assumed Remington Steele's fictitious identity—without his originally having planned on doing so.


The show combined the standard TV detective genre with ironic plotting and elements of romantic comedy. Both Pierce Brosnan and Stephanie Zimbalist were a great pair with wonderful, witty chemistry.

Madonna - Icon of the 80's

One of the great icons of the 80's -- Madonna -- whom I absolutely went crazy over. Every song, every music video, every dance move, every hairstyle, every outfit she wore had me in awe. This is a song I loved, and sung in a concert I loved.

In fact, the recent fashion trend of the 2000's is a re-adaptation of the 80's ( I guess the designers grew up & decided to bring back their love for the 80's) ...the big baggy blouses with low-waisted big belts, the legging and leotards...we've seen it all before - back in the 80's!

Dress you up!
