I'm still obsessed with all of these things (with the exception of Kirk Cameron, but I still wouldn't throw rocks at him). The ages merely indicate when I became obsessed. I had a lot of spontaneous obsessions during my junior year of high school. samedi_kat would know. ;)
I have vivid memories associated with each obsession, too. I'd tell you them, but I think this is enough words for one entry. Feel free to ask, though!
