  1. Happy Arbor Day.  I like trees. Trees are good, except when they fall on your house.

  2. When I get to around 30,000 points I can't figure out how to get past the "hot dogs". I will try again and try some new stuff.
  3. The power flashed this morning.  Some of the clocks stayed set but others didn't.

      Sounds pretty advanced for years ago. 

       

      One of my clocks has a battery back-up.  It won't show the time when the power is out but it keeps track of what time it is so when the  power

      does come back on it shows the correct time.

      I got it way back in the late 80's.

      Not too advanced. When I was a kid I got a watch that read a radio signal to set itself. Both it and my more recent alarm picked up a dedicated radio signal at 60kHz from Ft Collins, Colorado. WWVB It's been running since the mid 50s. I use it in uC clocks that I make too.

      Cool!   Fort Collins is about 48 miles from here...Driven past those antennae many a time I'll venture...At night they flash red.

  5. @RogerpocoI thought I read that you have to press the fire button to activate the power ups. For some reason as soon as I touch the cat the powerup is activated without me touching the fire button.
  6. Turmoil: 69,200 Was going after a higher score and just made it to 46000 on level 3 and lost.
  7. It's cloudy here.  Same thing happened in elementary school when there was an eclipse.

      Perhaps save up for a trip to Spain, North Africa, Middle East in the beginning of August, 2027?

      We got about 80-90 seconds without clouds.  I saw it.  It was great.  The birds and insects totally reacted.  I had heard they would, but it was REALLY obvious.

      Very cool.  Our universe is amazing.

  8. Atari 2600 Crossbow - 68 minutes Cross Force - 222 minutes Kaboom! - 15 minutes Red Sea Crossing - 44 minutes Solar Fox - 86 minutes I played one game of Solar Fox. I scored 7,487,400. Rack 1-255 and 1-98 My thumb kept slipping off the fire button. I lost 4 or 5 lives due to that at the end of my game. I know you can put it on difficulty A, but I am used to holding the fire button down to go fast.
  9. Looks fine to me. Good luck on the better score. I might try Crossbow again.
  10. I can't believe some telemarketer/fundraiser called at 9:08 am on a Saturday morning.

  11. Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
    But mama, that's where the fun is

  12. It is raining. For some reason I feel better when it is raining or snowing.

      Last panel,   now,  what I want to know:  Is Garfield bringing that fish in a bowl over to their house...Carrying it like it's a dish to be eaten later (probably by him) ?  😅

      I was thinking the paint fumes made Garfield and Jon THINK they were going over to the Bumsteads, when in reality, they were in their own house, convulsing on the floor.

  17. Brach's got rid of the black jelly bean.  BOOOOOOOO!  I like all the flavors including the black licorice.

      imagine being a kid at the Willy Wonka Experience and the one jelly bean they give you is black licorice 

  18. March came in like a lamb so I guess it will go out like a lion.
