For those who remember the 80's and the explosion of technologies, this one will sure bring you tears -- laughing or crying. It's an ingenious and hilarious take of the BBS days with today's eyes. ASCII arts, DOS batch commands, Windows 1.0, Tandy computers, brick phones, or how about "tapecasts?!" Need I say more?! Kudos to these guys at Engadget!

Our landscaper neighbor came home with an excavator yesterday. As you can imagine, it was an instant hit with the neighborhood kids.

It sure is nice to have a toy like this to do your chore with. I think this winter I'm gonna ask Santa for a Bobcat for my snow duties.
