Been slowly working on my own version of this year's anniversary pic over the past week. Used to only take a day. Still not quite done yet, but the baby cooperated today and I am really close now.

I have a tiny "Removable media museum" in my office at work.

Left to right:

- Tandon 8" floppy drive+media (1970s)
- Sony DRU-500A, first optical drive to write both DVD+R and -R (2003)
- HP 6020, first affordable consumer CD recorder (1995)
- IOMega Zip 100 (1994)

Tiny starfish appreciation post

I, too, would like to post something green for St. Patrick’s day... did you know the Cat’s Eye nebula has a lot of [OIII] emission, which makes it glow green? A lot of images show it s as blue or red, but it’s really a pretty green object visually.

This is the best definition of leftism. Ever. Period.

The full moon was high in the sky as the werewolf pack stalked towards me, their eyes blazing with betrayal.

"Hey, c'mon... It's not that big a deal," I asserted.

The Alpha stood, growl-whining at me, "You only... pretended... to throw.. the ball!"

"So how can I make it up to you?"

"Throw!" the Alpha barked, the rest of the pack echoing.

I pulled back my arm and hefted hard - they bolted after nothing, again.

Risky, but hilarious.
