1) Play Intellivision games on my TV with a direct-to-TV game
2) Play Lode Runner on an Apple ][e
3) I listen to 1980's pop and rock hits
4) I watch taped games of Calgary-Edmonton NHL playoff rivalries
5) I only watch cable TV, and get rid of my satellite TV
6) I use the Apple and a dialup modem to go to BBS's instead of suring the Web
7) I watch 1980's animated classics like The Fox and the Hound and The Secret of NIMH
Would that cause me to travel back in time?

You also have to fire up my Atari 800 and play "Pong."
Don't laught - it still works. 63kb of memory, 5.25in. floppy disk drives (external) that stored a massive 256kb of data on each. BASIC programming language in a plug-in cartridge. State of the art in 1983.
You also get to re-live the Reagan press conferences - almost a religious experience.
You get to watch the Twins win the World Series (finally).
And oil prices were $12/barrell.

You also gotta watch all movies by John Hughes

Leg warmers, a cassette walk-man, casettes in general, living in "the valley" and hanging out at the mall, driving an IROC, thinking Kirk Cameron, John Stamos and Bruce Willis are sooooooooooooooo cute. That should get you through 1988.
