I had my older bother order a pair of those xray glasses for me when i was 8, I bugged the heck out of him until he did my parents wouldn't I thought sure i would be able to look into xmas package and presents, snoop on people in the other rooms and stuff. I was so sorely disappointed when all the glasses were was xray film used to make very dark sun glasses. I was out $9.99 for the cost of them , which at that time for a 8 year old kid was a lot of money. lessoned learned a " a fool and her money was soon parted "
my bother never let me for get it either.. so you were saved from that sucker punch at least ...lol
I was the kid that bought Sea Monkeys back in the day. Turned out to be just brine shrimp, but I still loved them...well, until I tripped one day and spilt them on the carpet. I also bought the special plastic tank for them which had enlarged magnified domes around it cause they were so tiny, and the race track you could eyedrop them into and watch them...well, just sit there...doing nothing. Those marketeers must have seen me coming a mile away.
..yeah the other ads I remember were:
Your own private Army or Navy.
Hmm, if it makes teacher give me all "A's" what an excellent investment.
Ah just what every mother needs, a stock of live ants in the house.
One of my brothers actually got hoodwinked into this one, mum had to bail him out.
...yeah feel just a bit older now...need to go do some real shopping.
The only thing I ever purchased out of a comic book was the miniature spy camera. It actually worked and took decent pictures for it's size.
Eventually I bought a Minox, which I still have. Suprised I haven't lost the little thing.
...this one?
I baught some stupid keychain, flashlight, shaped like a skull. Sometimes it would cut out for no reason, so we use to say that a ghost was there and that's why the light went out. So, it went from a cheap, crappy, flashlight, keychain to a Ghost deterctor LOL.
Remembering Ray Bradbury's story, 'Boys! Raise Giant Mushrooms in Your Cellar!'.
Personally, I need DS & Poser just to produce something as good as some people can with crayons.
I tried playing the piano for 50 years, now I just use a CD player.
I remember some weird story in an actual book, about a strange squat little man with a big wide head building a rocket out of flattened tin cans and getting his neighborhood kids to help him and eventually they blasted off for the moon where he rejoined his mushroom family. Honestly I don't remember how it ended, but I don't think I'm going to look it up.
Dinosaur
there are mp3 files and bluetooth
Yeah, I know dinosaurs. I started life using a hand cranked Victrola for my music.
But I'm not completely obsolete, I have my last 50 years collection of music (a crate of LPs and several storage crates of CDs) ripped to a memory chip the size of a half of a Cornflake. But no matter what I try, I can't get the Victrola to play it.
At one time, years ago, I almost bought a piano that "tickled it's own ivories". But figured it was too kinky.
....I still have those large black flat circular thingies with grooves on their surface and hole in the middle that you need this contraption called a turntable to use. I also have those little shiny silver disks (that have pretty rainbow colours when you look at them at certain angles) as well but not as many. I even have these big 10" reels of brown mylar magnetic tape, but nothing to play them on at the current time.
I've got a lot of mp3 files, and most of them are copied from my CDs. I consider CD to be the peak of home music formats. mp3s are very convenient (at least they were until my iPod went wrong) but I still use CDs a lot. I started off buying vinyl LPs before CD was invented and I hated the clicks, pops, scratches etc, I always thought there should be a better way.
When it comes to bluetooth I've got a bit of a cross-generation setup. I've got a tiny 30 watt bluetooth amplifier and it's connected to a pair of Wharfedale Denton 2 bookshelf speakers. The Dentons are the last surviving part of my first stereo record player, bought sometime in the 70s. They still sound good.
I was one of those who got picked first in the neighborhood games. One thing I would do differently today is I would train the kids who get picked last, and bring up their skills. That's lessons learned and observations made as an adult, of course. But if I could have done that with the worst one or two, it wouldn't have been long before I had one of those underdog winning teams. We may look scruffy, but when we're done with you, you'll FEEL scruffy!
This is true.
Well, they're not all "perfectly" good.
That's it! Found one on ebay not long ago for $58.88. It stayed there, too.
Inflation is a pain.
What's a comic book?
An illustrated movie script.
A gig for a commedian.
a visual novel on paper
Come to read inspirational quote from master artist, leave with nostalgic roadtrip on classic ads.
Just sharing a bit, I personally thought about ditching this hobby too since I was making zero progress for a very longtime until recently due to a change in mindset. I think it helps a lot to have people who you believe make great art said that your creation finally reached a certain level of quality.
