Today is Paul Reubens’ 58th birthday and I almost forgot about it. Therefore, I wish him a happy birthday and to give us more years of fun. Happy Birthday Mr. Reubens! End of line.

Christopher Tupa, the guy who designed my blog header, drew this awesome picture of Pee-Wee Herman chilling out with Chairry and Pterri. Check out his website and Flickr gallery, for more awesome artworks. He also accepts commissions. End of line.

So, if it’s more than 10 years old, it’s considered retro. Am I right?

Once upon a time, MTV was a wonderful channel where music videos made regular appearances and the programs were creative, original and entertaining. One of there best programs, The State, is finally available on DVD for a new generation to enjoy. The State was a sketch comedy show known for it’s popular 90s rock soundtrack and it’s absurdest sense of humor. The music may be gone, but the comedy remains as fresh as it did 1993. If you are a fan of sketch comedy such as Monty Python’s Flying circus or The Kids In The Hall, than this is a must buy. If you enjoyed shows and movies such as Reno 911, Wet Hot American Summer, Stella, Role Models and others than you’re probably already a fan of The State and now that it’s available after fourteen years of waiting, you no longer have an excuse not to own a copy. Still not convinced?, here is all the proof you need.

After years of waiting, I can finally experience the happiness of owning Daria on DVD. Daria has been having a high influence on me, when I was a teenager. She helped me mould my personality by understanding sarcasm and such other things. She taught me that life does suck, but there’s always some good moments. Right now, I’m almost done the first season. I’m a little disappointed that they had to change 99% of the music content, but it doesn’t really matters since it’s still the same old Daria. I find that, after all these years, this show is still very actual. Therefore, that’s why I like it so much. I encourage those who are still hesitating to get Daria on DVD, to buy it. It includes all five seasons and the two movies, all of this at a cheap price. So, get your butt out of that chair and buy the damn DVD set! End of line.

Today marks the 30th Anniversary of Pac-Man and Google decided to celebrate it by making a playable header. Go try it before the day end. I thought it was something worth posting on that blog. End of line.

Do you remember when Nintendo introduced the Game Boy’s Play It Loud line? It was the beginning of a new era. We had the opportunity to choose colors other than dull grey. Personally, my parents never wanted me to have a Game Boy. In fact, they were against most gaming systems. I think that is the reason why I’ve started collecting gaming consoles. Thanks a lot, mom and dad! Well, back to the Play It Loud series. When I was in 4th grade, a kid in the classroom next to mine brought his Game Boy to school. He had the Play It Loud clear case edition. He made a real hit, because every kids in school wanted to how a clear-cased Game Boy. For the obvious reason that you could see how a Game Boy looked from the inside. Transparency was so cool at the time and it was the first and last time that I’ve seen a clear-cased Game Boy in person. A few years ago, my dad got me a red Game Boy, from the flea market. Well, it’s not clear-cased as I wished to have, but it’s a good start. Maybe, I should try to get all the colors from the series. Who knows?

Concerning the Play It Loud line, I’m looking for an ad that once appeared in Nintendo Power. In this ad, they were comparing the colors of the handhelds to food condiments such as ketchup, relish and mustard. I’m sure it has been featuring in the January 1995’s issue. If some of you have this magazine, it would be nice to look for me if it’s the right ad. I would like to see it again. Thank you. End of line.
