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: #19

 My top 50 greatest things. Number 19: Alan Moore Alan Moore is an author more likely known for his comic books. Moore's writing style is dense and layered with meaning. He's very conscious of rhythm and uses that to evoke atmosphere and reveal information about characters. Moore squeezes everything he can out of the English language to get his point across. There's a lot of work from him I could talk about, but I do think everyone should own a copy of Watchmen, which DC has put out a compact version of that goes for like 10 bucks. My favorite works from him are Swamp Thing #32 and From Hell. I would also recommend his novel, Jerusalem, that explores the human experience and beyond.

Top 50 Greatest Things: #43

 My top 50 greatest things. Number 43: Toys Look, I'm not a huge toy guy, but I have a few and I like them. Toys are just really cool. I'm more into like figures and what not but vehicles are also cool. Right now I have figures of (SPOILER), (SPOILER), and El Desperado displayed. I also have (SPOILER) from the late 90's that's really cool and a specific version of (SPOILER). I would like a Enterprise and more He-Man stuff. I'm planning on starting a collection of (SPOILER) figures because they look kind of cool and are very affordable. That's the thing about toy collecting, I don't have a lot of space and don't really want to dedicate all of my funds to it.
