I used to party with a bunch of the Wizards of the Coast folks and we used to trade Blue Bloods for Magic cards and just give each other stuff too. I have waaaaaaaaaay too many boxes of Magic cards for someone who doesn't even really hang out with anyone who plays these days. Anybody want to own up to playing now? Step right up . . .

Captain Cosmic on Channel 2, used to be on in San Fran right after Dialing for Dollars or somesuch. They used to run all the old Godzilla movies, Ultraman, Thunderbirds, and all sorts of crazy monsters from outer space films.

[Nightingale]

That'll be the crazy monster in the middle picture then?

Uhm, no...

What is up with the bitter negativity? Don't you be disrespecting Captain Cosmic and his distinguished guests. I used to watch that show all the time and it was awesome!

The bitterness is because we didn't have such things. Oh we had a second channel - the rich people had a third too! - but our life was Thunderbirds, Skippy the Bush Kangeroo and Captain (insert colour here) and the Mysterons.
