Retro Wednesday.....


.
.
My old mousepad finally disintegrated, so I had to
dig deep in my jun...er treasures, and find another one.
Lo and behold My First Mousepad!!!
I've had this since the late 60's when I got my very
first computer, The Commadore 55!!
It used to be black and white, but I had it colorized
in 1970. I jusy KNEW that it would come in handy 40
years later!! Curley is STILL my favorite...
And who says Pot destroys your memory?
Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk!!

A Commodore! Wow, don't see many of those anymore. My ex had an old Kaypro, which we referred to as the Russian prototype computer.

Commodore 55? Was it a glorified calculator? I've not seen that one. Oldest "computers" we have is the Atari 800. Yeah, it was a computer not a video game system. And yeah, the thing still works. I'd rather the husband hold onto mousepads than prehistoric technology, but... Yeah, You rock the old school, G-man. An aside: Someone once told me that the only memories pot destroys are the forgettable ones. Or maybe I said it. I don't remember.
