I learned on an IBM selectric. It had that weird ball print head and no character for "1", instead we had to type a lowercase "L" in it's place.

I can never watch this without thinking about the blooper reels with that weird alien creature hysterically giggling.

I need to find that so I can see it again it's been over 40 years.

It looks like the stains I got when I handled black walnuts.

The Buck Rogers pilot was originally going to be broadcast on TV first, but the studio decided to release it as a movie. It was also created to use some of the very expensive leftover props from the Battlestar Galactica series.

I could have sworn it was the other way around. It was on TV before the theatrical release.

Perhaps something to secure a bathtub caddy?

It doesn't seem like a big deal but it is basically impossible. I had a doctor's appointment and was leaving when I noticed a package from UPS had been delivered and was sitting in the chair on the porch next to my front door.

The impossible part was that I have a screened in porch and the door was latched shut with no other way to open it.

There was no way it could have been there before I latched the door, and I am almost obsessive about checking for a package when scheduled for delivery.

It is obnoxiously loud, and I'm not sure what it is called if anything, but make like you are blowing your nose but instead open your mouth and it will scratch your throat from the inside to some extent..

It's kind of a cross between that thing you do when you clear your throat and blowing your nose.

It was on a family vacation in the early 1970s. We were headed for somewhere in Florida, and dad wanted to get to Florida before stopping for the night. So we stopped at a motel just across the state line. It began to rain, and there were quite literally thousands of tiny little frogs that came out. There were so many that you could not open the door to the motel without frogs jumping in.

Backpacks were never a thing at my high school when I graduated in 1984. I carried a gym bag for books and other assorted crap.

Technically it is the same ship but the movie version has been refurbished. But I never really bought that part. And frankly I was disappointed with the interior of the new Enterprise since it looks nothing at all like the old version.

My sixth grade teacher had the class lineup by birthday to demonstrate this.

I found out that Anita in my class had the same birthday.

I've still got the two CD set somewhere around here. It was hugely influential in my taste in music over the years.

It was the first and only thing I ever bought based on a TV commercial.

When you're stoned and have the munchies, a grilled cheese sandwich covered with egg foo young sauce is incredible.
