I remember one little girl in my class who convinced our teacher that we should all write a letter of condolence to JFK's widow. Her name was Kathy Nail. After graduation, she went into the movie business and wound up being married to Steven Spielberg. Her name, now, is Kate Capshaw.
She doesn't seem to look it. Oh, well...

Biography from Leonard Maltin's Movie Encyclopedia:
Earthy, vivacious leading lady who made a capital debut as the megatolerant wife in A Little Sex (1982) and was equally fine in the lostyouth comedy/drama Windy City (1984). But her over-the-top performance in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) was savaged by critics, sending her career into a tailspin. More recently, she has come back in smaller, quieter roles in Black Rain (1989), Love at Large (1990), and My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys (1991). She also starred in the shortlived TV parody series "Black Tie Affair" (1993). She is married to her Indiana Jones director, Steven Spielberg.

Cell phones weren't even invented yet, in fact touch tones phone weren't either.
The only thing I had ever heard of mentioning the word "cellular" was in Mr Perlman's biology class, and didn't pay that close attention. The only person that had anything remotely close to a wireless phone was Dick Tracy.
Superman was a really lame TV show or in a comic book. Lois Lane was called a "dame" back then.
Grease wasn't a movie, everyone looked like that (w/o the dancing and singing.
No video arcade, there was something called a penny arcade. Pong was the first video game I ever saw or played.
First multi functional food processor = Mom (or her Mom)
