Getting ready for the Texas-Steelers game... adding a new lime squeezer to the margarita ritual.
I got the PlayStation shot glass at the E3 where the original PSX was released. After my 5th trip through the Sony booth, the booth ladies told me no more promotional shot glasses.

I just finished decorating the gumdrop tree. Each gumdrop comes with a wish for the new year. No limits... It's magical and delicious.

Updated iOS & had to search how to stop setup of Face ID. Seems odd to me to have anything as a logon that can't be changed. If you are comparing the data electronically, the data can be spoofed. This isn't secure, & you've created/stored your permanent ID electronically where it could be harvested.

Excellent! I finished the Cool Whip from Thanksgiving. Now I have a nice container for leftovers!
And sadly... a disappointment for anyone raiding the refrigerator looking for actual Cool Whip.

I'm considering whether to cancel my long-held #Yahoo email account, due to the new use of AI.
Look at the items under 6b & 6c for AI. Seems like anything I put into a (private?) Yahoo email will be consumed by their AI and they have right to republish it.

Never knew this clip of Eowyn fighting in the Glittering Caves existed, & what fools cut this scene? Movie Helm's Deep with had boys being armored while women cowered in back. The movie portrayal was an insult to the shieldmaiden of the Rohirrim. Sad they cut this www.youtube.com/shorts/WXSiZ...

I saw a post about video game The Quiet Man, & in my mind I saw a game where John Wayne's goal is to purchase his lost family home, win the heart of girl next door (Maureen O'Hara), horse race intended brother-in-law before a final fight, beating each other up before heading home to dinner together.

Please @warnerbrostv.bsky.social do something w/the IP for The Pirates of Darkwater
The original series was never finished. The story is great, & the merchandise lines exist. Nostalgia in a generation of older wealthy consumers would lead to views/sales.

Today I finally beat level 76 - Pit of Ichor for #3DO game Icebreaker by @andrewlooney.bsky.social (also maker of the FLUXX card games)
I'm trying to beat all 150 levels of Icebreaker on INSANE difficultly level. Here's my level map. I am not sure the remaining levels can be beaten.

I belong to the Flying Goombas disc golf club, & each year we award the Golden Goomba award to a man & woman club member who have been the Best of the Best for the club & community that year. I make the trophies from a 3D printed flying goomba topper that I paint gold. I love growing future leaders.

I recently updated my 3DO with the USB mod by MNEMO, to replace the non-working CD drive. I was happy I did it. Not only can I play games again with fast load times, but replacing the internal fan during the process made the system so quiet vs. the stock fan. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
