Ask yourself the question "If you could represent yourself by putting three items in a time capsule about the 80s what would you put in it?" It can be any three things you would like, from sappy and sentimental to funny and freaky! Send me an email with your answers, and I will publish them here. I will credit you with your first name or, if you prefer, a nickname, unless you specify that you don't want me to. In the meantime, read below for other Product of the 80s Time Capsule items!
