I remember this house where we lived in NJ had two cedar-lined closets, too, which I thought was so odd.

HA! I had completely forgotten about until the photo was sent to me and weirdly, my memory was of playing with it at my grandparents house, not mine/my parents (pictured).

HA! It was my oldest brother's and if he kept a fraction of the crap/toys he bought back in the day he'd be so stoked now in retirement! He's the one you want to marry ... but there's not even a Big Trak in it for you, so...

Funny story, the house where this pic was taken has been, perhaps unsurprisingly, updated and based on Zillow photos I can confirm, none of what was there remains.

LOL ... nailed it! Thank goodness the future didn't bring us all those futuristic sounds from back then, though just about every appliance in my house makes SOME kind of noise now.

Shitty. Says more about her than you, but still sucks.

Right? Zero useful purpose though I think we (meaning my older brother... it was his) had the trailer hookup thing so maybe, kind of useful to send snacks across the room?

I suspect my brother spent a fair chunk of time with it (he's 15 years older than I am, so he didn't live with us when this was taken) though I definitely commandeered it when he brought it over.
