Thinking of people and places I'm thankful for this weekend...

My taste in cars might seem confusing at first until you know that most of the cars were either Matchbox cars I owned as a kid or because of one of my guy friends that let me play as his girlfriend when I was like 9 and used to infodump about Porsche and had a toy 911.

My wifish: Why do you even like that car?
Me: Because it looks like the one I had that rolled the best.

My wifish: Why that paint job?
Me: Because I attacked a car with nail polish so it would look like this.

My poor German wifish: WHY PORSCHE?!
Me: Because some guy was nice to me, infodumped endlessly about porsches while I was allowed to cuddle up next to him in our make believe stories where I was a girl!

Torque, speed, efficiency, turbo or not, price, history, these things interest me not nearly as much as this car was capable of handling the G-Forces of my ridiculous plastic race course, jump and then put a dent in the wall.

DW is watching bizarre fashion vids, and… 😩

Anyway, I am reminded of my friend Peter changing his name to Phoenix, bleaching his hair blonde, and super-gluing an artificial pearl to an earlobe.

A bit larger that the young lass with a string of pearls glued to her face and trotting up the runway, for sure. But it brought back a memory, so thanks, young lass.

'October' was born from fond memories of a quiet childhood, walking home through autumn leaves. What song brings your childhood rushing back? #FondMemories #ChildhoodMemories #InstrumentalMusic #AutumnVibes #OctoberSound

How a simple gesture became one of the best gifts ever I've received.

@Lino_JR I thought of him too how funny. #LikeMinds. She used to do ads on tv in the 70s for a food product I believe. #FondMemories

In the spirit of #rstats IDEs and the announcement of #positron who remembers working like this?

So many things can be found on the internet but there are a few things from the days of my youth that still elude me. For instance the tv ad for Paco Rabanne Cologne for men from the late 1970s, the made for tv film Bound For Freedom about indentured servants in colonial America and the filmstrips promoting library use featuring the bookworms Li and Berry. Maybe one day they'll appear. #FondMemories

I remember watching #Tamilfilm #ManiRatnam's #Bombay here under a light drizzle in 1995

@onthisday A few days later, my father took me to his workplace, where I could look at and print out pictures of Hale-Bopp all day. That was my first time online. #FondMemories

@asymco is that the AMS Asymconf venue? #FondMemories

@dgar Tangential to your excellent point but I have sung this acapella in 4-part harmony so many times (The Nylons' arrangement) and it is such a blast to sing, especially with a great base section.

I owe so much to the CW #Arrow series & the #Arrowverse that spawned from it. Watching them fall, one by one, has hurt me deeply. Instead of satisfying, organic finales, we’ve been forced to watch Nexstar shed everything they don’t want. A sad end.
The Arrowverse will stay with me, but I must be strong & embrace the new era. Maybe we will return to this lovely little universe one day.🏹 #Comics #ComicBooks #DCcomics #GreenArrow #FondMemories #TV

@ChrisFleming nice! When I was in college we practiced topo mapping at Angel Mounds in our Archaeological Engineering course #FondMemories

@leyrer <3 K&D #FondMemories gute Parodie dazu https://youtu.be/6I5UTgyzhC4

#Retro #Gaming shelf is pretty much complete. The #NES & #SNES survived a house fire, hence the yellowing.

Last shot is my collection of #NintendoPower magazines - I have all issues from 37-62, plus a handful of strat guides and earlier issues.
