  1. Last week
  2. This video sounds like an accountant's tally or Company Man's post-mortem of a failed corporation. A golf cart here, a water tower there, trashing The Mustery Shack really adds up!;) OK. what was your guess? Is that enough for Dipper and Mabel to get the "tar and feather" treament?
  3. Earlier
  4. Quick, what costs 499 Pounds Sterling and has NO external inputs at all? Techmoan ordered one at a significant discount out of curiosity. What do you get for such a princely sum? Three foam-covered modules that require you to read the Instruction Manual! I've been leery of Bluetooth technology, since it sometimes disconnects or takes a while to connect to Ye Olde Windows 10 T530 ThinkPad. So I'm especially skeptical of a system that doesn't have a plug for Ye Olde Stereo Headphone. What is this thing for?;)
  5. Got the answer from a helpful reader: Song: Rodeo Queen written around 1985-1987 by Brian Burns who was the lead singer for a central Texas band called Cherokee Rose until around 1995-1996 when he quit the group and moved to Nashville. Brian Burns is the Country artist that also wrote the re-write of I've Been Everywhere Man to I've Been Everywhere In Texas Man. (with lots of cities in Texas listed)
  6. Capt. Malcolm Reynolds has found something drifting through cyberspace...the ghost of MySpace! I began surfing the Internet as FaceBook was on the rise, and MySpace was yesterday's news... "Somehow, MySpace returned?" Keep watching cyberspace to see if this "ghost of the Internet Past" is coming back...
  7. Techmoan had been the master of the long form video, but "The YouTube Shorts" finally got him, too. Can you hear music by bone conduction? But of course. But can you enjoy candy and music at the same time? This video has so many candy/lollipop/Kojak references!;)
  8. It's August, and summer 2026 is starting to wind down into the "Dog Days of Summer." Do you remember the movie? "Sunny Side Up Summer" from English to Spanish to German to French, all the way to Turkish.;) Which one(s) do YOU like?
  9. OK, enough of these ballads and Blues songs, here's something you can dance to! Yep, the "Bob's Burgers" characters will "dance like no one is looking" at the drop of a hat...or burger.;) Let's face the music...and dance!
  10. The YouTube algorithm can be annoying/insightful/fascinating. I looked at the "Someday I'll Get It" Animatic and this happens: Is Louise about to do a "Spiders and Snakes" thing at the school dance? Ever since Louise kissed Regular Size Rudy on Valentine's Day, they've been the object of speculation. The speeded up version of "Lights" by Ellie Goulding is as interesting as Fox TV's "Bob's Burgers," eh?;) For reference: Jim Stafford's "Spiders and Snakes" song...
  11. You never know what will happen when you click on a random YouTube video or short. What started out as a "do you think this real life person" sounds like "Tina Belcher" turned into something else... One of the video makers suggested half-jokingly, that Tina was mourning the death of her father, Bob Belcher! The cartoonist clearly thinks that Jimmy Pesto, Jr. is the focus of this melancholic song...
  12. It's Saturday and "Techmoan" intercepted a hifi package headed for the dump. Will he be able to get this "too old to still be working" Mini system? It's a Sony! It's an Aiwa? Does it work? Inquiring minds want to know... There are various suggestions as to what's wrong as well as what to do with the radio and MiniDisc drive...;)
  13. No more swiping, just meeting - No Selfie https://GirlSingle.com Real girls from your city are online NEW GIRLS Rita Tira Emma Tella Dreamer Sofia Corinne Rachel Starr Adriana Chechik Linda Warners Dani Daniels Petit Hotwife Remy LaCroix Mistress Arina Ryan Keely
  14. You made it to Mos Eisley with Luke Skywalker, when Obi-Wan Kenobi suggests we go bar hopping for a Space Pilot' Han Solo is so sloshed, he begins singing a "Droid Blues" song!? Just remember the lyrics to this "Droid Liberation" anthem whenever you hear that tinny-sounding Cantina band.;)
  15. Get out your copy of "Classical Guitar Made Easy" by Mason Williams and prepare to dazzle Rockers! From "Smoke on the Water" to "Smells Like Teen Spirit" to "The Final Countdown" Who needs electricity to stun and electrify your audience?;)
  16. I've read that a Guitar is "an orchestra you can carry around with you." Lucas Brar takes on the "Happy Birthday Song" "The Happy Birthday Fugue": From Childhood into Age... Try doing THAT on an electric guitar!;)
  17. I was watching two (sorta young) Hipsters reacting to "Weird Al" Yankovic's "The Saga Begins" when I saw a random post that rook me off the sands of Tatooine. A 1997 song parody based on "Copacabana" by Barry Manilow done with the polish of "Weird Al" Yankovic.;) I don't remember seeing this "scrolling masterpiece," but sometime in 2017, this bouncy, jaunty "Star Wars" song had registered with me. Take the multiple Parsec trail back to a galaxy from "a long time ago, and far, far away.";)
  18. Do you know what a music CD is? Do you still have some? Do you play "Sony's stepchild" now and then? Techmoan has good news for people looking for a modern CD player! TEAC: The last company that still makes affordable electronic gear...;) However, all is not well with Techmoan's newest/still in production DAB radio tuner...:(
  19. How well do you know the voice actors in a given animated TV show? Here's a look at "Futurama's" animated and real actors Some of these voice actors have the luxury of brining one character to life. Others have several characters to juggle "as time goes by..." And now, let us return to "the transcredible adventures of Zapp Brannigan," as he pursues Turanga Leela...;)
  20. Spaceships in SF franchises get little to no attention or interest. Here's a look at the "U.C.S.S. Nostromo" compared to the Millennium Falcon, NCC-1701 U.S.S. Enterprise and "2001's" "Discovery." I was aware that the interiors of the "Nostromo" looked frighteningly real. Nothing like surplus aircraft parts for that "yes it could fly through space" look. I didn't know that the "hamburger with an egg" was a rushed job triggered by a TV show!;)
  21. Do you remember Kickstarter? Have you ever backed "something new/different/revolutionary" on Kickstarter? Matt has something to show you! Matt had a Miniot Wheel 2 turntable in storage, was about to connect it up, when Miniot suggested a trade-in for a Wheel 3 demo... Thrill now to a moving "upside down stylus" that reads from below, seen from Matt's transparent LP...;)
  22. This is what I get for clicking on a piece of the 1943 "Coal Black and the Sebbin dwarfs" Warner Bros. cartoon.;) PC Speaker-level audio, CGA graphics, text screen like a silent movie, and the "Look/Take/See/Walk/Handle" typed action mode of the 1980's.;) According to one of the posters, this game runs for 37 minutes, if you know exactly what to do...
  23. Every now and then a YouTube short rises above "the usual suspects." Achilles vs. Achilles (Would Brad Pitt be charged with child abuse in this clip?;) See James Gunn's "The Odyssey" (2026), the movie that made "Chato" dance like a puppet on the "See/Avoid" line. "Troy" vs. "The Odyssey: AI Shorts Disaster Compilation.;) More from Nonsense Detected...
  24. I didn't see this TV series from episode one, having found it by accident after season one, so these early traumas in "Little House on the Prairie" was a surprise. Were you expecting "The A-Team," an action wartime show or "The X-Files"? Keep watching... I might yet go back to the early days of this TV series, if i can find it, that is. Was this your kind of TV show, or was it "too sweet"?;)
  25. Has a music player/remote control/radio/tool become covered with sticky, slimy gunk? Here's a short video work around to remove that sticky mess. A petroleum distillate works, since most modern plastics have fossil fuel origins.;) eletronicsNmore's 2 solution, 2 step approach (70% Isopropyl alcohol scrub , followed by WD 40 wipe down.)
  26. A well established bank wanted to change their image and wound up signing Paul Williams and Roger Nichols to write a jingle. The jingle became a mini movie, Richard Carpenter saw it, and Karen Carpenter sang it. So, whenever Pop music nostalgia strikes, consider what a mere TV commercial can become...;)
  27. Have you ever wondered what would happen if Teen Anakin Skywalker had a counseling session with Deanna Troi? What tips would a Jem Hadar soldier give to Imperial Storm Troopers? What if Spock and Yoda had a very long conversation? Yep, Luke Skywalker looks at the sunset of Tatooine with Hope for the future with The Federation... It won't happen, Hollyweird "knows better/knows all," so all we can do is dream about "Harry Kim at the Mos Eisley Cantina Sessions.";)
