galactic bowling
Yesterday I went galactic bowling with friends. It's the first time I've been bowling in years. The first game I absolutely sucked and scored a 93 if I remember correctly, the second game I got a 116 and the third a 115. Any time I break over 100, I'm a happy guy because that's pretty much the best I can do. :)
I'm not getting the LDF50 watch. I received this email today from the seller:
Slight change of plans.
I decided to return the W59 because it really irked me that the display doesn't show the month and day but rather just weekday and day. I did however keep the F-28W; it turns out the band just needed a little breaking in to become more comfortable and now it doesn't bother me at all.
I decided to see if I could actually find and buy a few of those old-school Casio watches new.
I'm not a wristwatch person. In fact, I find them annoying to wear; this is mainly because most watches are heavy, cumbersome and the designs look stupid. But that may change soon.
Return to Oz, released in 1985, is unofficially the sequel to the original 1939 The Wizard of Oz. This is yet again another one of those movies that I saw when I was barely a teenager, remembered almost nothing about it but wanted to see it again now as an adult with fresh eyes.
In my collection of now-vintage video games is Star Trek: A Final Unity. No, I did not buy it for full price and I'll explain that in a moment.
Digging through my old stuff I found some old video store rental cards from a business that closed well more than a decade ago called Video Galaxy. I always thought that was a very cool name for a video store.
I found that I had not one but three cards in my possession:
I finally got around to seeing TRON: Legacy. On a four-star rating I'd give it a 3. It's above-average and very well done, but is yet another one of those movies that focuses too much on effects and not enough on story just like The Incredible Hulk.
I'm admittedly a geography junkie and have been for years. Stats and figures about population, roads and other geographic data interests me. This started when I was living in CT and wanted an answer to a simple question: How many people are there in that state? The answer is 3.5 million, and strictly speaking of population density, CT is ranked 4th while FL is ranked 8th. What can I say, they pack 'em in like sardines in The Nutmeg State. I also have an affection for places labeled as 'off the beaten path', because they much like cities have quirky personalities to them.
