Rolling in style

Fun movie. Fun movie novelization.

‘Nuff Said

Let’s be careful out there. #snowmaggedon2026

Scored a grail from 1977 off eBay this month.

Be mine.

What I’m wearing all this weekend.

LUDEN’S - the medicinal candy found at the bottom of grandma’s handbag.

In 1989 we could crunch all we want, they made more.

During the #SuperBowl, I’m going to party like Spuds Mackenzie - responsibly.

Mickey Rooney for Rainier beer, 1977.

Jim Backus, the lean years…

Sylvester should handle our border security.

We are one month into the USA’s 250th celebration and there is a disappointing lack of Snoopy semiquincentennial merch like we had during the Bicentennial.

1975 was a very good year for Saturdays.

Reminder - January 29th is #CleanYourRecordsDay

Unlike the uncountable number of amazing things around now, when I was a kid these were the only two Godzilla toys available back in the day. #svengoolie

Peak monster magazine cover from 1966.

Retro 24”x36” canvas print available at my eBay store of this comic book ad page from 1976. I had a Bullet Man action figure. Used to throw him everywhere - across the yard, up a tree, against the garage door windows until one broke 😬 Available here: ebay.us/m/pqIUwy

Where I post from…

A galaxy of STAR WARS treasures from a 1978 comic book ad.

“Let’s all be there Tuesday!”

Received my 24”x36” canvas print over the weekend and I’m generally happy with how it turned out. I went back to the original digital file and made some tweaks to make it even better if I have it printed again.

I’ve gained a nostalgic appreciation for 1980s CGI graphics seen on TV. Smooth and glossy but simple. Less was more.

January MAD covers from ‘66, ‘76, ‘86 and ‘96.

Hi-res scanned from a 1976 comic book, I had a 24”x36” canvas print made of it. Will post pic when it arrives.

Baragon is my spirit animal

My top two favorite items I got off eBay in 2025: I was reunited with an affordable copy of the deluxe hardcover book of Rankin/Bass’ “The Hobbit” (my childhood copy lost over the decades) along with this expertly modeled 3D print of the Rankin/Bass animated version of Smaug the dragon.

If DIE HARD is a Christmas movie then THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE is a New Year’s Eve movie.

Sherlock Holmes by Don Martin, 1975

Looking back, 1979 was a really good Christmas.

Season’s Greetings from all of them in 1980.

Season’s Greetings

This guy.

The name says it all

“It’s an air conditioner!” Doris Roberts for GLADE.

This is only a test

We are experiencing technical difficulties- please standby

Do they still decorate classrooms with the changing of seasons and holidays? I hope so.

I know exactly what I was watching on TV on Monday, 10/20, in 1975.

Saturday morning memory from 1985

Ace “Starman” Frehley was arguably the best robot wolfman buttkicker out of the four of them.

I’ve decided to adopt a life of leisure.
