Rewinding Laserbeak
Wednesday, May 11 2022, 14:13 comicStrip, Humor, TransformersI found this on my feed on Facebook and found it amusing ;-) In attempting to amplify stuff less over on that site, I decided to post it here. Back when my VW Beetle had a tape deck, I had seen iPod adaptors that converted the audio using a tape casing that had no magnetic tape in it. I wonder if this is what Laserbeak had on the show ;-)

Juiced.GS to be acquired by Microsoft
Friday, Apr 1 2022, 09:09 Apple, AppleIIgs, aprilFools, Humor, magazines, Microsoft, Technology, zinesWell, here's the first April Fools joke today. This comes from the web-based magazine Juiced.GS, a magazine that writes about the Apple ][ GS.

Wednesday, Oct 7 2020, 05:00 Action, Comedy, CW, Entertainment, Humor, netflix, Sci-Fi, TelevisionThe other post was getting a bit long, so I am continuing it here (who knows, there may even be a part III!)Marvel's Agents of SHIELDI rather liked this series.

All events take place after the first Avengers movie, so the big bad that kicked it off was HYDRA, and Agent Coulson was brought back from

Monday, Sep 7 2020, 12:18 Books, Entertainment, goodreads, Humor, review, Social Media, Social Networks, Society How to Be Black by Baratunde R. Thurston My rating: 5 of 5 stars I won this book at a conference a few years back (Baratunde was one of the keynote speakers) and I finally had a chance to read it.
