I never really used floppy disks that much, and only did because I had to and not because I wanted to. And man did it tick me off when they went bad, which happened a lot. Back in the day there was this WWF wrestling game I had for my Commodore 64. It was expensive and I really, really liked playing it. It was two 5.25-inch floppies and then one day the second disk went bad, even though I oh-so-carefully took great care of the disks and properly put them away after each use. I was not happy. Just about all of my other memories with floppies are exactly like the one I just described. The floppy was just notoriously unreliable. It wasn't a matter of if they would fail but when.
There are three B movies from the 1980s that as far as I'm concerned stand out more than any other. H.O.T.S. (1979, not 80s but close enough), Screwballs (1983) and Porky's (1982). All three of these epitomize what raunchy sex humor is supposed to be in a B movie.
The Firm is a flick I'm surprised I haven't written about before. I've watched it at least 4 or 5 times.
On February 1, 2011 I bought a new Arctic White Squier Bullet Strat - the second Squier I've ever owned.
A long time ago back when I was attending Lyndon State College in Vermont before I transferred out and finished my degree at New England Tech, I was living in a dorm. Because college dorm life was somewhat boring, I bought a VCP, which is a VHS videocassette player, meaning a VCR with no recording ability. Bear in mind this was the early 1990s.
Two films in two days? Sure, why not.
On Facebook, one of my friends who just did a monster event said, "I am looking forward to doing nothing soon" in reference to relaxing for a while. My first thought was, "The Nothing.. that's from The NeverEnding Story.. I haven't seen that in years!" So I re-watched it.
I've found over the years that I've very particular when it comes to digital desktop clocks. I own a few of my father's clocks now, two of which I like a lot, both made by Micronta.
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:
