The Best Thing I Own Is My Tiny TV/VCR

100% Left coverage: 1 sources

The idea came in a flash while I was on a barstool in Bed-Stuy’s Do Or Dive. The bartender snapped off the music to swap in the Jeopardy! theme, but I couldn’t find Trebek until I followed my fellow bargoers' gaze to the top of a fridge, where the smallest black and white TV I’ve ever seen rested. In no way was it an appropriate size to show anything, but for a show based mostly in audio it worked fine enough. I wanted my own right away. I went…See the Story

Arby's RPG Dice from Norse Foundry

I started playing Dungeons & Dragons very early in life, and I wanted to play so badly that my friends and I made up our own version of the game. We used six-sided dice scavenged from other board games and made up rules on the fly, usually writing them down right before we played.Then one day, everything changed when I got copies of the Basic and Expert Rules. It accelerated my playing and made me want to expand my game. Every bit of money I cou…See the Story

TRON Radio Contest of 1982

When I was writing about the TRON Video Game Tournament of 1982 last week, I kept finding mentions of another contest that was taking place that summer, the TRON Radio Contest. I have tried searching for details about the contest and was able to find some stations where it was run. Outside of this and descriptions of how the contest would be run, I cannot find much else. The reason I would like to know more is because this wasn’t some standard c…See the Story

TRON Video Game Tournament of 1982

Reviews for TRON might have been mixed when it hit theaters in the summer of 1982. While some might complain about its plot or length, it was hard to deny the technical virtuosity of the film. Moreover, this film was making a statement. We were all entering the age of the computer, and video games were going to be at the forefront of our interaction with them moving forward. To punctuate this point, they released a series of tie-in video games, …See the Story

Skip-It by Tiger Toys

At some time in the 1960s, toymakers realized that they could capitalize on a solo jump-roping toy. The toy probably preceded the sixties, but records around toys become even spottier the further back you go. The concept is relatively simple—it's a skipping or solo jump rope-style toy where you tether a ball to your ankle and attempt to spin it while jumping over it. So, anyone with a ball, string, and something to make a rigid ring could create…See the Story

The Quincy, M.E. Metric System Poster

When I was young it seemed that the United States was going to switch to the Metric System. Not only was my school equipped with classic imperial measuring devices and materials, but right next to them were metric ones. We were expected to learn both at the same time, and while it was a little inconvenient and slightly confusing to my young brain, I enjoyed it. It was exciting—the metric system seemed like it was going to change everything aroun…See the Story

Does Snoopy ever speak?

I grew up loving the various Peanuts cartoons and holiday specials. Its a world that felt magical, where adults didn’t talk and beagles cooked Thanksgiving dinner. The voices and tone of these cartoons would change over time, but one thing I thought I could count on was that we would never hear the Snoopy says words. That all changed in 1985.When Snoopy was first animated, Bill Melendez who was integral to the creation of the TV version of the P…See the Story

The New Show (1984)

Amazingly, we are in the 50th season of Saturday Night Live. That is a long time to be on television and for much of the show’s run, it was helmed by the same person, Lorne Michaels. Michaels did step away from the show for a few years starting in 1980. Two people stepped in to fill his shoes, Jean Doumanian (1980–1981) and Dick Ebersol (1981–1985). It was an interesting time for the show, with exciting stars and mixed results. Michaels returned…See the Story
