RUDY....

So I am sitting in the ER at our local Sacred Heart Hospital waiting for some tests results concerning my wife who is laying in the bed and I hear something mechanical sounding coming down the hall. I turn and look out the door and there roaming the halls is Rudy. I was almost overwhelmed with a rush of 1977 giddiness. I snapped this picture to forever memorialize the moment when I first saw a real life robot at work in my day to day life. My inner sci-fi Twig was gushing with an overwhlming sense of history being made.

Sure it wasn't:
...but it was a Robot nonetheless...I have offically lived to an era that I lived only within my early child fantasies.

Now if I could only get ahold of a M41a Pulse Rifle....

  2. That. Is. AWESOME!

    I totally gotta see one. I totally gotta. I'll bring a synthesizer to really heighten the experience.

    Dude, images of Short Circut, Flight of the Navigator, Star Wars (of course) and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo, for some strange reason, are all flashing through my mind right now.

    This must be what nirvana feels like.

    your family is in my prayers,
