I write. I blog. I podcast. I make videos. Sometimes I sleep in a van down by the river for no good reason.

Just got my print copy of @computesgazette with my six-page review of Boatfest right in the middle. Always cool to see your name in print, always cool to contribute to the community. #c64 #commodore

@defrisselle Yes. It's actually a real rocket that explodes after you fire it. For ages 5 and up.

Here's my initial thoughts and (no-spoiler) review of the film. I'm still a little stunned. #bigfoot #capturingbigfoot #patterson #gimlin #documentary

[Capturing Bigfoot @CapturingBF]

BIG SURPRISE: you can rent or buy CAPTURING BIGFOOT NOW on Amazon Prime Video 👣

In 1967, Roger Patterson captured 60 seconds of film showing a creature walking through the woods. Now, the discussion around that infamous film changes forever.

@exQUIZitely A great example of how games didn't need amazing graphics to be fun. There was a C64 homebrew game called Showdown released a few years ago that was based on this. Still fun. https://t.co/YoZLuyr95b

[Rob (Flack) O'Hara @Commodork]

@exQUIZitely Yeah, I was an early adopter of the Ultimate. The keyboard I used with swapped keycaps is from my original childhood 64. I play all the games I cover on Sprite Castle on this one. This is the "all clear" setup...

@retroist As a kid I was terrified of KISS. I thought they were scarier than any ghost, goblin, or demon. I wish I had been coll enough to be Gene Simmons for Halloween in 1980 but sadly I think I was "old farmer guy."

From this month's @computesgazette...

Found these headphones for sale recently at a thrift store. Immediately picked them up because of the RadioShack logo... and immediately set them down when I saw the price tag ($52).

@rdpJesse They harken back to a simpler time, for sure. Any device that only plays one game is tough to justify. I suspect few people with nostalgic ties to them still play them, to be honest.

[Rob (Flack) O'Hara @Commodork]

Do you still play old handheld games? I have a love of these but gaming on my phone is so convenient that I don't break this things out often. And when I do... batteries. :(

I bought this for a video I'm shooting and haven't decided if I'm going to keep it or not. Okay, I just decided I'm going to keep it. That was a quick decision.

@SAKURARadiochan GB or GBA?

[Rob (Flack) O'Hara @Commodork]

I am trying so hard to downsize my collections, but when you see Fisher Price Adventure People stuff in the wild, you buy it. Period.

I made this video in support of @TwoBlindBros and #WorldSightDay. Also, I meant what I said in the video -- no sympathy! I'm living my best life!

It started w/an annoying hum & ended w/2 new XLR cables & a preamp. I love my Yamaha AG03 mixer but the preamps are SO hissy. G2G for Conversations from the Darkside, YDKF, & Sprite Castle!

What's something you regret parting with? I regret selling my 720 arcade cabinet. It worked 100% but when I moved I had no room for my arcade machines. It went to a good home but I do miss it. Skate or die!
