You are connected to Castle Rock BBS (9600bps) Local Telix User

Having always been a technology fan, especially into computers, you learn something early on. The Early Adopter Tax. If it’s new, hot, and you want it now, you will pay double for it compared to the price that it will surely sink to within six months. It’s always fun (and somewhat painful) to go back and see what you paid for early gadgets. I have blogged about this before, having obtained my first computer from my dad who “traded” a complete central air and heat system for our Atari Setup. At the time, we came out REAL good on that deal. The early Atari’s were EXPENSIVE. Looking back, it was insane. In the late 80’s early 90’s, before the proliferation of Teh Interwebs, BBS’ were all the rage. I ran a fairly successful single line BBS called Castle Rock for almost 3 years. The early days of online computing, speeds were not gauged on your CPU , but your modem was the bottle neck. For a long time, we were stuck at 300 baud, which was insanely slow. Then the jump to 1200 baud.

It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base,,, bah nevermind... Wow i have resorted to posting and article in January and then going dark. All because I don't want this seldom used blog to go the way of the Dodo.  Why??? I have no clue.  Anyone still out there? Drop in the comments if you are. Peace....

2020 huh? How'd That Work Out For Ya?

 So here I was last January posting my semi annual placeholder so the timecannon doesn't "go the way of the DoDo Bird"(there's a reference .093 percent of my audience will understand), and little did I know what a FUN year was waiting for us all.  So here i am, with my (albeit early) semi annual DoDo bird analogy. But lets pretend 2021 is going to be better. Wanna?  Ok,You heard it here first 2021 is so gonna kick 2020's ass, and Nostra-bacon-us was the first to tell you. Carry on citizen....
