Hard to believe it was 28 years ago today that the Cosby Show premiered on NBC.  1984 doesn't seem that long ago...I guess I'm all grown up.  Starring Bill Cosby as Dr. Heathcliff Huxtable, the show was about an African American family living in Brooklyn, N.Y.  The very popular, family sitcom ran for eight seasons.  Two episodes immediately come to mind.

On this day,  July 10, 1985,  The Coca Cola Company announced that they would resume selling the old coke formula after the new coke formula flopped.  July 11th, 1985, the original formula returned and is now known as Coca Cola Classic.  Do you remember when New Coke came out?  It was probably one of the biggest risks taken by a major company in consumer goods.
