Afternoon Tunes

Yeah, that’s my newest Sony CD Walkman. I bought it labeled “untested – for parts or repair” to fill up my last shadow box and it’s one of those rare “untested” beasts that not only looks great but is actually completely functional. This one’s a keeper and will not end up under glass.

This Appeals To The STAR WARS Geek In Me

Reminds me very much of an underground desert house I designed in the summer of ’77, still deep in the thrall of the first STARS WARS movie. Those plans are long gone, possibly thrown out when my folks sold their house in ’81. I mean I knew exactly where they—and multitudes of my other works—were when I moved out a year earlier, but afterward…no clue.

Where I Begrudgingly Admit A.I. Has Its Uses

I figured out how to add the comments/comment count link to each individual post automatically without having to remember to do it.

Or should I say, Google’s A.I. (is that Gemini?) figured it out. It required a bit of tweaking on my part, but now it’s working, and I didn’t have to spend months learning PHP in order to do it.

Underrated

I’ve always felt Constantine was a vastly underrated film.

Damn…now I’m going to have to go watch it.

Although I must admit, I found Matt Ryan’s portrayal of the titular character on the short-lived television series much sexier. That was another one of those series that unceremoniously got canceled on a cliffhanger. Bastards.

Addendum: I always confuse this one with The Ninth Gate, another vastly under-appreciated bit of horror.
