Voltron Star Shooter (by John Kratz)

Made in 1985, this toy starts out as a mild-mannered SLR (inset), but then converts into Voltron: Defender of the Universe!

The top part of his body is actually a working 110 camera, while the big “SLR” lens is a fake.

Made in Macau and sold by Impulse Ltd. of Missouri.

Even if it isn’t in existence anymore, the concept is pretty cool.

Flatbread pizzas! So good but not very filling. I have to make at least 2 for a meal.

Old School: I finally got around to buying a new AC charger for my old laptop. Gonna wipe the HD and get rid of it.

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring. — Carl Sagan

picquotes:

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime. — Mark Twain

picquotes:

Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein. — H. Jackson Browne

Haha, so true.
