Another slow day at work.  I forgot to get pictures, because we have expanded.  We now carry wax tarts (a small candle like piece that is placed on a electric warmer or with a candle under it), lip balms, guest soaps (one time use soaps, except for the race car shaped one, that should last at least three showers), and smelly jellies (an air freshener with crystal like balls).

The toys I have are a foot cruiser ship that comes with a figure and some more Star Wars related vehicles.
My back is tired from all the somersaults I have been doing over anything to do with the Flea Market.  At first I want to give up, sit down, play games, cry, raise prices, cry, help others who need help, cry, and smile.  I am blessed to not have bullet scars, sure it would show signs of struggle, but I feel bad about what is going on around the world.  Mr. Spy Mr. Spy is the name of the game.

Thanks,

   I am on the lookout for a toy my cousin had around the middle of the 80's.  When I asked him
about it all he said was that they came in a building set allowing you to make transports and such.
The figures are small and I remember them being either Blue and Gray or Gray and blue (Torso-legs).  My favorite part was pulling the arms and legs off.  If anyone has any information I would love to hear it.
These last several days I have been all over Ebay and Google trying to find any information on them.

Thank you,

IT'S ALIVE...IT'S ALIVE!!!   I have been spending this last week repairing a PS2.  Swapping cords was not working, either was swapping drives.  In the end I decided to learn how to calibrate the laser.  This is an older PS2.  My suspicion was that electronics had become to advanced and would need a 2-1B Medical Droid to walk me through the replacing of a Disc Drive.  Well, some of is was true.  Instead I used Google (DROIDS!!!) to figure out the calibration.  There are several parts and pieces that can be replaced or altered.  The first place I started with was swapping Disc Drives, but that did not work (Later I found out that I had moved the laser set to "OPEN" when the tray was closed). After that failed attempt I calibrated the POTS on the bottom of the laser.  When that did not help I swapped the laser out with one I knew would work.  The problem with the original laser was it would state it was reading the Disc, when the Drive was not even running.  Weirdly after several minutes of nothing the Drive would spin and the Disc would play.

Thank you!!!

      I have repairs to work on.  Some things seem easy, others do not.  Luckily I am able to restore to like new conditions .  At this moment I am trying to figure out how Peter Cushing plays a Dr. Who.  I cannot seem to find which Number of Dr. he is.  It is sad to see people get old.  Peter did a great job as Grand Moff Tarkin in my opinion, making him comparable to a Sith Lord.  List of Dr.s No Cushing.
   What a failure.  Nope, Cushing is not considered a real Dr.  Currently they have announced the 13th Dr.  There is also another spoof of Dr. Who played by several famous actors.  In the episode Dr. Who transforms from Rowan Atkinson, Hugh Grant, and a female lead.  Sadly they used more sensuality for the female lead, causing me to give it a rating of PG-13.  COMIC RELIEF IMDB DOCTOR WHO THE CRUSE OF THE FATAL DEATH.

Thank you!!

      As the Program states from Tron Legacy.  The one trying to talk to Zeus, his words are, "It has begun."
I am going to repair mainly video game consoles. This is what I want to do and this is how I want to make money doing it.  Luckily for more vintage gamers the repair is usually less then a 1/4 value of the system.  For the restoration of an NES mostly from the blinking light it is generally five dollars.  My kids and I were watching LITTLE MONSTERS on Youtube today.  I IMDBed the movie, finding out that Rick Ducommun plays the character Snik. Sadly the guy does not seem to have a picture for his IMDB profile. Rick Ducommun IMDB

     The pressure is building for me to start writing again.  Hopefully my grammar has improved.  Generally I write poetry but I love writing Lovecraftian style.  I am also trying to keep two other blogs going.  There are two new listings for my Ebay page.  Two different types of Electronic tools.  One is different styles of boards and the other is a motor drive.  I received them from an Electrical Engineer, but I am selling them as parts.  The neat thing is getting to see older boards or more like older outdated components.  EBAY for OLOSNAHCRAFTS.


Thank you!
