Just finished reading The Time Machine by HG Wells. A short but mind-blowing book.
-
I don't think I've read the book, but I did see the 1960 movie a year or two ago. Quite good! https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054387/

Oh yeah! One of my favorite authors! I recommend all of his main books! I've read The Time Machine, War of the Worlds, In the Days of the Comet, The Island of Dr. Moreau, Invisible Man, Food of the Gods, The Kingdom of the Blind, Empire of the Ants, The Crystal Egg (A favorite short story), and more!... yet I guess he still has other stuff I need to read! I better get to it!

My vote for worst website in 2023 is FedEx. It's awful.

Best actually made a list of the worst site designs: Bad Websites - 15 Worst Website Designs to Avoid in 2023 (websitebuilderexpert.com) I don't know the gentleman who owns it, nor can I speak to his service, but that website is so AltaVista.

I have some of the most rare consoles and games on the planet in my collection and when I show it to my neighbors, they are without fail like "Oh a NES/N64....COOL bro I remember that!"

I like how certain visitors, especially if they are female, look at these consoles and think they are some kind of complicated music cassette players. Often these same people, when I explain they are video game consoles, have less then zero interest in them (probably because they are slightly embarrassed and disappointed since they thought they were music related).

There was one time about 5 years ago when old game systems came up talking with a coworker, and she (yes, a girl, in her early 30's) said "Oh, we have an old one at home called a Turbografx 16 we played as kids, have you ever heard of that one?"
Only time a "normal" person ever mentioned a system like that that I can recall.
Sadly she didn't want to sell it.

Hahaha... A year ago, I was on an overnight field trip with my son's class. Me and a mom of my son's classmate broke away for awhile and we're walking along a beach. I mentioned my son and I were playing a game on an old Atari system.
"The 2600?" she asked.
"Um... Surprised you know that. Actually it's another more obscure system."
"The 5200... Or the 7800?"
I told her I loved her.

RIP Jerry Springer. "Jerry...Jerry...Jerry!"

On to that great big stage fight in the sky.
A fellow that I grew up with went really wrong, had a bung of kids with a bunch of different women, joined a gang, got in trouble with the law, the works. He went on Jerry, twice. Him, his sister, and three of his baby mamas. The producers would stand in the wings with stacks of hundred-dollar bills. They'd tell them to do something outrageous then shove hundos into their hands until they did it.
But I'll give him this. He was an entertainer with staying power. That is no small achievement in this world. Controversial or not, he did add something to society.

Anyone clean the crap out of anything that comes in their house? I can't stand the filth I find on any used games/movies/music I buy, and there is a lot of it!

People always talk about the symbolism of the red/blue pills from The Matrix but I wonder what the actual prop pills were. Mucinex? Docusate? I have to know!
-
I need to stop being so lazy and watching YouTube at night when I could be accomplishing things playing Video Games!

Are there any good Indiana Jones games? I know the NES ones suck...but there must be at least 1-2 good ones out there on some platform.
-
I watched "Dude, Where's My Car?" last night for the first time in 20 years. A few laughs, but mostly left back in 2000 where it belongs. lol
-

Tagging @Rick Dangerous as this status update may be hard to find. Since you are downtown (ish) the 6th floor museum really is kind of a neat thing to visit. We also have the George Bush presidential library if you are into that sorta thing. Hope you enjoy your time in Dallas.
