Don't Touch That Dial

"...That was Muskrat Love by Captain & Tennille on this lovely Monday morning here in Lompoc California. The high today is expected to be 74º and a bit windy, but you're used to that. Coming up this weekend is the annual Flower Festival and I wanted to let you know that KNEZ is going to be there. I'll be live as the parade passes the station here and then later at the park we'll be hosting a live chat with grand marshal Flip Reed! Now let's rock out to The Edgar Winter Group with Frankenstein, right here on KNEZ!"

Got A Light?

I'm a sucker for realism, and even at full size you really have to look and see that these are actually expertly crafted LEGO prop matches by AFOL turned LEGO designer Carlmerriam. I love how Carl isn't afraid to let scale get in the way when it comes to props, and it makes his MOCs even more magical.

It Uses Tape?

You kids today, with your fancy iPods and digital recorders. Back in my day we used tape! You wanted to record something you hauled around one of these devices, loaded with D batteries and with a load of cassette tapes. And when you wanted to hear what you just recorded, you had to rewind first! Now stop recording me and get off my lawn!

HARDnuary 2015

If you haven't already heard, HARDnuary is once again underway. What's that you ask? Well, quite simply it's a building challenge for hardware and everyday items, sort of the mastery of the mundane. There are no prizes, but you wouldn't know that by the enthusiasm of builder KOS brick, who has committed to a MOC every day in January, and so far it's been impressive.
