More delicious retro watches. I want them all.
Lots of new - and retired - versions of Monopoly, etc.
I had no idea there were so many. Star Trek Uno is seriously funny. And yes, I own Star Wars Monopoly. My name is Angie, and I am a geek. I canna help myself. ;)
Star Trek The Next Generation Pinball Machine
I need a bigger place. Because I really, really want this pinball game. I used to spend HOURS playing it. It was the best - bar none - pinball game ever designed. Multiball was when you engaged the Borg. Seriously. How cool is that?
Earth Watch
Santa? Are you out there listening yet?
Millennium Park -- Chicago, IL
Cool pictures of the new "bean" and other structures. I'll have to make sure I visit during my trip in October.
Secret Fun Spot
If you grew up during the 70's, odds are you're going to love flipping through the galleries here. Too many memories. Qbert and Monchichi and the Little Professor. Ah, the simpler days.
Fabulous Fred Game
This was my FAVOURITE game when I was a kid. I still have it in my closet. It had 9 different games (only 2 or 3 of them really useful) and was supposed to compete with Simon. I thought FF kicked whoopass all over Simon's head. Still do.
Classic Radio Gallery
I'm in love.

belive it or not, i'm a monopoly snob. i refuse to even consider the idea of having anything but the original version. but oh man, when i saw the i love lucy and coca-cola versions i almost broke down, but i stood strong.

why this is important i dont know. we all have our things i guess. :D

I'm the opposite patricia, those 'special edition' monopoly boards were MADE for me. All started with the Star Wars one... sigh...

And I was a bit disappointed that the 'classic radio gallery' wasn't a station playing classic radio tracks...

Patricia, I agree that some of them are a little over the top! However that doesn't stop me from wanting Who-ville-opoly (as y'all may have noticed, I'm a bit of a Christmas nut) and STNG monopoly ('cause, you know, geek) and if they ever had a San Francisco version I'd likely buy it too, since it's my all-time favourite city and owning Alcatraz Island would be seriously cool.

Gordon, you should know me better than that! :) I don't often link to radio stuff, mainly because I don't listen to much radio (retro or not) online. But design-y things... mmm. Yup, that's for me.

I will keep an eye out for retro radio music stuff though, just for you!

The most important thing is knowing. Everything will work out if you just remember to breathe. Chocolate is not for sharing. Beauty is everywhere if you just remember to look for it. Perfection is impossible but improvement can happen every single day. However vast the darkness, we must supply our own light. Make a wish. Dance when the music moves you. If it's hard to say, odds are it's what the listener most needs to hear. Wear a new colour. Do that thing that scares you. Love as often as possible.
