I've heard of "Yowza", but not "wowzie" or "wowzer".

From the 90s-now: Rockin', Righteous, Radical, Phat, Krunk(ed)
From the 80s: Tubular, Awesome
From the 70s: nothing good came from the 70s, let's just forget that decade...
From the 60s: Groovy, Far Out, Way Out
From the 50s: Neato, Keen

From earlier, but I don't know exactly when: the cat's pajamas, the bee's knees

I used to rock and roll every night and party every day. Then it was every other day. Now I'm lucky if I can find 30 minutes a week in which to get funky. - Homer Simpson

Most of the people that lived through the 70s can't remember anything from that decade anyways...not by choice, mind you.

I was hoping my 70s comment would engender some responses, and my hope has been fulfilled!

However, I must now rescind my comment, because sleipnir214 is correct...tube tops are a good thing. I guess the only drawback is when they are worn by people who just should not be wearing such clothing...

I would say tube tops worn mostly by the people who shouldn't wear them which makes this invention priceless because of all the fun it creates when arong people use it.

"FANtastic"!!

My college roommate used this in a very sarcastic way (mid '80's, for time reference). I have no idea how wide-spread the term was used.

"Tank-tops" are called "turrets," war-as

"Tube-tops" reveal bazookas.

This, of course, is all very [red]top[/red] secret...

THe first time I heard "Wowzers" was on Inspector Gadget.

How about:
Gnarly
Radical
Fan-f**kin'-Tastic
Awesome
Tubular
Coolio (before he was a rap star.. lol)
Wicked
Slammin'
Rockin'
B*tchin'

And for those who remember TMNT...
COWABUNGA!

(Of course, the line that lead up to that was so funny....)
"Awesome!" "Radical!" "Bosanova!" "Huh?" "ummm... Chevy Nova? How about Cowabunga!"
