Auction ranting

Posted on September 18, 2008 by baudattitude

So I’ve run two sets of auctions lately, as I try to clear out space. The first was mostly old games.  We’re talking, Apple II games, other early 8-bit micro stuff, TurboGrafx, Sega CD, that sort of stuff. I had … Continue reading →

Lifetime Coffee Table Expenditures: $30.

Posted on September 1, 2008 by baudattitude

Yesterday’s post was more than a little consumer-whorey, so I wanted to offer something up in my defense. My first apartment, when I was 19 or so, was shared with Carmen Spray, who is, in addition to an accomplished fan … Continue reading →

Paranoia Defined

Posted on August 27, 2008 by baudattitude

OK, so in the course of organizing the apartment, I’m looking through some boxes that haven’t been gone through in a few years. And I find a stack of 3.5″ floppy disks labeled “C: Drive Backup, 10/1/1994, Norton Backup Format” … Continue reading →

Musical moments, slightly embarassing:

Posted on April 17, 2008 by baudattitude

So I keep hearing a song when I’m driving home from school, and it’s rather catchy, and so I finally went and looked it up on Google. It’s apparently by the actress/singer who plays “Hannah Montana”, which is apparently all … Continue reading →

Nostalgia hits hard

Posted on April 13, 2008 by baudattitude

Our local Fred Meyers had a DVD sale, a few months back, where they took a bunch of movies they’d overstocked on and put them all out at $5.00 each. This is how we came to own Ghost Rider on … Continue reading →

Evil in a can.

Posted on March 31, 2008 by baudattitude

I grew up in the 1980s, and if you weren’t around at the time, or if you’ve managed to block them out, people saw the devil at work in a lot of things. Rock Music, Comic Books, Video Games, Dungeons … Continue reading →

My faithful readers…

Posted on March 14, 2008 by baudattitude

…you’re all perverts. Well, at least some of you are. And that’s not anything to be ashamed of, really, though possibly not something you want to work into casual water cooler conversation. Case in point: One of the nice things … Continue reading →

Faith in humanity fading

Posted on February 18, 2008 by baudattitude

When you’re a 44 waist and rocking a 3XL shirt to be comfortable, there’s not a lot of places you can shop for clothes anymore. You can find stuff at Old Navy, or Sears… sometimes Fred Meyer. Your choices are … Continue reading →
