Moving some stuff around in the basement and I stumbled upon my old Gravis Mac Mousestick II. I don’t recall when I got it, but I preferred the Gravis Gamepad back then so this was hardly used. The Gravis Gamepad is long gone, this thing remains.

Halloween may be over but Ghosts’N Goblins seemed seasonally appropriate to play. I am always humbled as to how bad I am a this whenever I try it. I spend most of my time stripped to my underwear or dead. Who am I kidding, I am always dead. #AtariST

Saturday night #Atari disk drive maintenance. This old Atari 810 wasn’t reading or writing disks reliably so I cleaned the heads, cleaned and lubricated the drive rails and adjusted the speed to the recommended 288 RPM and she is back in action.

Longer ago than I’d like to admit, my then young son removed my head with an axe. Happy Halloween! 🎃

Working on entering the stats for the Micro League World Series. Blue Jays are almost finished. Still need to type in the Dodgers. I’m not going to be ready for the first pitch. I should have done this earlier in the week. #WorldSeries #Atari #Retrocomputing

I used to run the Micro League World Series back on the bird site. If I can inspire myself to enter lots of stats before game time tonight maybe I'll do it this year. Time is ticking. #WorldSeries #Atari #Retrocomputing

Last Halloween I programmed a Jack-o'-lantern in Atari ST BASIC. Since I cannot focus on doing much of anything these days, I figured I'd share my previous useless crap.
