Their root beer, orange, and cherry flavors are all amazing too. Make sure to try them if you can find them.

edit for content: I bought this at a flea market. I'm trying to restore the idler wheel and it needs a new needle and possibly a new cartridge. Other than that I think it's in working order.

Megahex because I love the comic and want to support the creator.

Nothing But Trouble because it was my girlfriend's favorite movie as a kid and refuses to believe that it doesn't hold up (It doesn't. Holy poo poo it is bad)

The Exorcist because I'm going to see a special screening of it for my birthday and will get to meet Linda Blair. Hopefully I can get her to sign it.

That John Candy movie was cool, I think...gonna give it a rewatch now. Meg and Mogg are the best! Oh and of course Exorcist, just so very good.

Yeah, I was going to mention Digital Underground, pretty random, don't forget Tupac. It was so gross though, and those giant babies...nightmare fuel.

I considered one of those, but ended up going for the Origins Pocket 1500 from these guys https://johnryanbydesign.co.uk. Mostly because of the ridiculous amount of info on mattress construction on their site.

Comfiest thing I've ever slept on, although it's so thick we had to change our bed for something lower. Felt like my nose was six inches from the ceiling.

There is little that makes me happier than taking drugs. Perhaps administering them, designing and carrying out experiments that bend the plane of what we consider reality.
I was gonna but a Nes Classic. I got to the order confirmation page, realized with taxes and a 2nd controller it would be over $100 CAD and bought a raspberry pi instead. A timely video from snazzy labs on YouTube showed how to DIY a Nes cartridge into a microconsole and that was a lot cheaper.

Phase two brings in the 24 port PoE switch, patch panel, proper wall plates, maybe another AP, and more cameras for the home security setup since there's been two daylight home break ins on our block in the past week :(

I can't afford a double wide, those are for millionaires only (remember I am the $600 per square foot dude)

Coincidentally, I came here to post this...




MacBook Air ($300 used) and a new olive green nato strap ($10) for my Timex Weekender.

Looking forward to being able to use the full version of Garage Band with my iRig HD, and have have it last 6 hours on one charge for LA to NYC flights.

Also I found a CD album at a yard sale that had 80 original xbox games, so I picked up the console from craigslist, and I'm rediscovering old classics like TOCA Race Driver, Project Gotham Racing, and Crimson Skies.
