ALF Week: Day 3- Today is the Day

 So today is officially the 35th anniversary of ALF. It feels really good to be alive for it. On 8:00 PM Monday September 22, 1986 ALF aired on NBC while battling the first hour of MacGyver which was on ABC at the same time. The number one hit song was Stuck with You by Huey Lewis and the News. The first Crocodile Dundee was coming out that Friday. Tully Blanchard was facing off against Dusty Rhodes at the Memorial Auditorium in Greenville, South Carolina. It was a beautiful time. 

Honestly this day was the one I couldn't think of anything to post and because of how momentous this day truly is... it was a bit overwhelming to come up with something. So I think I'm just going to unwind and put on some ALF to celebrate.

The Devin Tour Diary 2023

 I spent the majority of the month of November on tour playing bass with Tourneforte. I had a great time and I’m going to recap it to the best of my ability on here. In true Windleyhub fashion, I am not proofreading this.  Day One: Camp Transylvania, Greenville SC  We kicked off the tour in Greenville SC at the third annual Camp Transylvania. This was the third and final day of the fest. We played right after our friends in the North Carolina band Condado, who are super tight and entertaining. We took the stage at 5PM. I usually remember to take my hat and glasses off when I perform since I move around a lot. I forgot to on this occasion, and my glasses flew off my face onto the stage where I at some point stepped on them. After the set, I helped load out gear and had Andrew pick me up to meet with our good friends Justin and Meleah at a Halloween party their friends were having. We got to meet some cool people all in various degrees of corpsepaint, including the legendar...

Top 50 Greatest Things: #49

 My top 50 greatest things Number 49: PS1 (just the look) This pick is mainly concerned with the look of the first iteration of the Playstation. I just like it a lot. Great shape and color and the colors in the logo really pop. Ken Kutaragi is responsible for the development of the console and Manabu Sakamoto did the logo and apparently actual design of the console. I mean it's probably my favorite console even if it's just based on how cool it looks. Most of my favorite games can be played on it. The controllers are pretty sweet too. Maybe not as sexy as the PS2 ones, but you hand me the ones without the analog stick, boy howdy. I was really tempted to buy an anniversary pack at Target that had some goodies that surrounded the console, but I didn't go for it. Someone got me a grey shirt with the logo on it just because of how much I love the look of this thing.

Top 50 Greatest Things: #35

 My top 50 greatest things. Number 35: Standing and crouching to scan a movie selection at any store I love looking at shelves filled with movies. It's a little taxing when it comes to the lower shelves. I do this at Barnes and Noble at least twice a month, but any store where it can happen is just as good.
