Erik's 1980s holiday answering machine outgoing message

If you're looking for the VanTassel clan
Allison, Amy, Erik, Michael, Jon, Dan
We're all out doing our Christmas shopping
At the time of year when everything's hopping
So leave your name and your number, too
And when we get home we'll get back to you
Bye

Did you have documentation?

Oh, no. It's been embedded in my memory sine c. 1985. You shoulda heard the inflection.

The only thing that pops into my head after reading that is Gremlins on Showtime.

Ski bike, large brown lazy boy, the chalk board, triscuits...

Wall papered lamps(wallpaper everywhere), some weird ass red indoor scooter/spinner thing, a garage door covered in glass, wet sod, a line on the end of the driveway, clocks at the end of the hallway.
