📼 VINTAGE BYTES | 1986 vs. 2026

1986: Democrats flipped 8 Senate seats.
2026: At least 7 projected flips.

40 years. Two second-term Republican presidents.

1986: We watched results on TV.
2026: We watch everyone argue on our phones. 😂

📼 GEN X ELECTION DAY

1986: Too young to vote. Pretend ballots at school. Results on TV. Then back outside on our bikes.

2026: Old enough to vote. Everyone's a political expert. Nobody stops arguing.

I kinda miss the pretend ballots. 😂

🪶 WEIRD BUT TRUE

In 1932, Australia sent soldiers with MACHINE GUNS to stop emus destroying farmland.

The birds scattered. A gun jammed. The operation became a national joke.

Nearly 100 years later, the score is still:

Emus: 1
Australia: 0 😂

📼 VINTAGE BYTES | Nov. 3, 1986

40 years ago, a Lebanese magazine exposed secret U.S. arms sales to Iran.

Then came the Contra connection—and a full-blown Reagan White House scandal.

No Twitter. No smartphones. Just one hell of a news story.

Somebody check on the Gators. 🐊😂

Georgia brought the Dawgs to Atlanta and left Florida looking like roadkill.

GEORGIA 27 — FLORIDA 8 🔴⚫

Different stadium. Same outcome.

HOW BOUT THEM DAWGS! 🐶🔥

@BobbyWilson1004 Looks like a butt crack, tastes like yum yum! Mother Nature knew exactly what she was doing when she made that peach. A little cheeky, a little juicy, and downright delicious! 🤣

📼 VINTAGE BYTES | October 30, 1986

Three days earlier, London's stock market had its “Big Bang.” Old trading rules vanished, computers moved in, and finance would never look quite the same.

Remember calling an actual stockbroker?

@BobbyWilson1004 I agree with you . Sorry to say this but there is too much noise with him

October 28, 1986: the day after the Mets miracle. ⚾

A Vintage Bytes trip back to a championship celebration.

⚾ VINTAGE BYTES — October 27, 1986

The Mets just won the World Series.

Boston was up 3–0 in Game 7, but New York came roaring back to win 8–5.

Jesse Orosco threw his glove into the sky, and Shea Stadium went absolutely nuts.

40 years later, baseball fans still remember.

Were you watching?

The day is October 26, 1986.

New York is still buzzing after the Mets' unbelievable Game 6 comeback, but rain postpones the World Series finale.

Americans turn their clocks back, Mozambique mourns its president, and future rapper ScHoolboy Q is born.

Somewhere in America, a raccoon is plotting his next break-in.

Scientists discovered that raccoons can remember how to open locks more than a YEAR after learning.

Meanwhile, I walk into the kitchen and forget why I’m there.

Back in the 80s, we rode in the back of pickup trucks.

No seatbelts. No seats. Just six kids bouncing around at 55 mph, holding onto the sides like we were hauling livestock.

Hit a bump? Congratulations, you just discovered flight.

And somehow, the adults thought this was perfectly normal.

The day is October 25, 1986.

In Geneva, the International Red Cross makes history by expelling South Africa's delegation over apartheid.

South Africa fires back, ordering Red Cross workers to leave the country.

Even an organization built around helping people in war couldn't escape the political battles of 1986.

This was our message this morning. ❤️

Acts 2:42–47 reminds us what the church was meant to be.

A place where people learn together, pray together, break bread together, and take care of one another.

The early church wasn't about buildings, programs, or Sunday attendance. It was about people living out their faith every single day.

They didn't just go to church. They were the church.

Maybe that's something we all need to remember.

Church isn't just somewhere we go. It's how we live, love, and serve one another.
