  2. Collecting old Art Bell & Goerge Noory pseudo-science radio broadcasts. And CreepyPasta & Dark Somnium short story narrations... For fall and winter cozytime listening.

  3. Is Circus Convoy still available? How much is/was it (I may have missed the boat)

  4. I am at the gym, lifting weights to build strength and burn calories...and ESPN has the nerve to run footage of the Coney Island hot dog eating contest?!

      @GoldLeader interestingly, no one eats coney dogs in coney island.  not sure how they got that name.

       

      The hot dogs in the hot dog eating contest are just hot dogs and buns, no condiments to speak of!

  6. Can anyone tell me why the Colecovision version of One on One looks like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man playing basketball against the Gingerbread Man?

      was it made under a licensing agreement with milton bradley/candyland?

  7. Watched Star Trek: The Motion Picture yesterday and promptly passed out. I thought people were exaggerating.

      I think that I saw it on opening weekend when I was 11.  it was sort of amazing, although we hated the uniforms and the plot was too adult for kids.  I was very disappointed that I missed seeing it in the wild when it was re-released in theaters a few years ago.

       

      it's definitely a more "meditative" movies (although perhaps not as ruminative as Blade Runner: 2049 was) and I always thought that the world ending crisis plot-line would have been better as the culmination of a few movies rather than the one to kick off the series.  Where do you go from there?  apparently, you never mention the events of that movie again and write as if it never existed.

  8. I've reached day 10 with Covid. Still have symptoms. Looking forward to getting passed this so I can do pinball and beer again.

      @VectorGamer I'm not a doctor, but as a random internet guy, if you have a doctor, I think it might make sense to touch base with them.  the medical care system isn't overloaded anymore, so it's not a matter of taxing the system, and they may be able to put your symptoms in context.

      have you been to the doctor yet?  when I caught it last september, I had a fever and was achey for two days then started to feel better, but then I was just tired for months, and months afterwards.  I think that I am finally returning to a normal level of energy (although who can tell, things are so weird), but still have some concentration problems.  it's been weird!  hope you feel better soon!

      yah, I am wondering if that's the gold rush board.

       

      how fun would it be if all those guys started dipping back into the 2600 in their spare time?

      Dan Kitchen also posted about gold rush, saying that people should sign up with audacity games to get more info about that.  I wonder if some of the activision guys are going to start writing and publishing for the 2600 again?

      not only that, but the team in the game I like is better than the team in the game you like.
