Any of you young one ever hear of a Sinclar. That was some where between Univac and Comador/Radio shack TRS 80. Anyway I have one still in the box. Come to think of it, It's the second addition. This one has piggie back that "ramps"{:) it up.

They're here!

UFO Is Reported at O'Hare; Feds Are Silent


All Things Considered, January 1, 2007 · In November, a grey saucer-like object was spotted hovering above Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. Up to 12 United Airlines employees spotted the object and filed reports with United.

Officials at the airline say they have no knowledge of the incident, and the Federal Aviation Administration is not investigating.

Melissa Block speaks with Chicago Tribune transportation report Jon Hilkevtich, who reported on the incident.

I told you they were coming!!!

I made a mar on the floor just now. It was a thrill to do something forbidden. Dare I do it again?

I'd love to land on a big 'ol Almond Joy right about now....But a Mars'll do in a pinch. i just won't land on Kenneth Mars.

Hey- Do you think Mars will be Closer To Earth Than Ever Before again this year, or is it too soon for that ol' chestnut to be circulating yet?

Would that be the Timex Sinclair 1000? With 1k of memory, expandable up to 2k? That's the computer I learned Basic on!

My first internet connection was an Atari with a 300 baud modem... 1.2 characters a second... on a good day.

Oh how I miss my Commodore 64!
