I love those kinds of bargains! I recently tracked down a used copy of Read Yourself Raw for next to nothing!

cool

They used to be available in my college library and at least half the works went right over my head. But at least I tried. Heh. (I might do better with it now.)

I did lay in a good stock of art books because Alibris is a relentless sender of coupons. But that was last month and I've barely had time to dent them. Pretty, though.

Maxwell Smart is the reason I have 86 as part of my online name.

I have failed at Gen-X nerdom by *not* noticing that myself! shocked

Also, thanks for the reminder that my profile needed updating to reflect my current age.

I remember my statistics class - we were discussing a better data point to collect. Collecting birthdays is useful, as one can always use that data to update the precise age

And here I had thought that Stile used 86 because 1986 was a seminal year for comic books!

A lot of people use their birth year as part of their online names, which is risky.

I needed to create a password between 12 and 32 letters with a selection of special, characters, digits and caps the other day for a site to watch football. I resigned myself to resetting the password, if I want to watch in future. No way I was remembering it.

Never thought of that but you could certainly argue that it was!

I only wish that was the year of my birth. So much youth! Let's just say that I watched Get Smart if not on first release at least within the first years of repeats here in Australia.

I use password reset a lot myself, these days...

I would have been four years old when it went off the air. So if I saw it in the first run, I have no memory of it. I think it was in the early Eighties that I became really aware of it, though I probably saw an episode or two syndicated before that.

My peak awareness of Get Smart was during its Nick At Nite run in the mid-1990s. An oasis of healthy escapism during a decade that, for me personally at least, was mostly horrible. Get Smart and, of course, Mystery Science Theatre 3000.

I bumped my MST3K thread even though I think you and I are the only fans left on here.

I really enjoyed the last season a lot, so I'm digging deep again and donating in hopes of there being another one.

(I just hope my dentist doesn't find out that I diverted my not-even-acquired-yet holiday bonus for this purpose. wink )

I have yet to hear a Legion reference on the show. But when I did an amateur riff-a-long of Ninja Terminator, with some friends from the now-defunct ( frown ) Club MST3K, I made a point of getting at least one in there. And another MSTie recognized it right away!! Woo!

That's awesome, Cleome!

I think you're probably right about us being the last two active MSTies at Legion World. frown

Sorry I couldn't think of anything to reply to you with in the MST3K thread. I do hope you enjoyed those "Danger! Death Ray" links I posted before you bumped the thread.

I'm already digging cleome's greater activity here on LW! And I have never even watched MST3K!

Actually, there is one other MST3K fan who's a semi-regular at Legion World: Gaseous Lad.

I get the impression he'd be here more often if he wasn't so busy being a dad and doing work-related travel.

So does Impression Lad (Ladette? Impression Individual?) leave a mark on the ground or walls where ever they go or do they leave such and impression on their teammates that they can't stop thinking about them even when they want to?
