Remember Reba's TV Show? This Is The Cast Now

By Meg
"My roots are planted in the past, though my life is changing fast. Who I am is who I wanna be. A single mom who works two jobs, who loves her kids and never stops. With gentle hands and the heart of a fighter. I'm a survivor!"When you heard those lyrics, you knew the next 30 minutes was going to be good.

By Meg
If you show a picture of these to anyone over the age of 30, there's a good chance they can tell you what they are. Anyone under the age of 30? Well, let's just say they'll have some spirited guesses but nothing accurate. If you don't know...they're roller skates from the 1970s!

10 Wacky Grooming Products From the '70s

By Meg
The 1970s gave us a lot in the way of fashion sense. I'd like to think us baby boomers were pretty savvy in what we chose to wear and accessorize with. I'd LIKE to think that for hair, as well. But we all know I would be wrong. There were...just a lot of big waves and big curls and big mullets. BIG mistakes. Hair, of course, wasn't the only thing weird about the 70s. We had some definitely questionable grooming prodcuts back in the day. Do you remember any of these?1. Lemon UpThere was reportedly the juice of
