Unfortunately due to weather concerns the radio show interview for today has been postponed. We should have a reschedule date later this week.
10/4.....I will power down my ol' Wang 2200 and await further instructions sir.............
That made me think of this:

Ah yes, the endless Wang jokes. Just when you think you've heard them all, there are more possibilities.
That was an unfortunate choice of company name... but I suppose not as bad as Poo Restaurant:
Do you actually own a Wang? (...computer, that is)

Naw, I was just trying to think of an older computer that would sound funny........I think my first home PC was an ACER that I bought because I liked the dark color and the ergonomic keyboard. I didn't even know what an icon was back then!!!!

I actually recently tried to buy a Wang (...a big one!), but got outbid. I'm not joking - and yes, I'm talking about the computer.
I've already got everything required to make a Dracos III - and it won't cost $100,000.
(I assume they converted that Kaypro keyboard to be wireless )

Good evening Maniacs!
It seems the flu that has been taking a toll on us all has been fought back and John & I are able to refocus on things really important . . . Magnum PI! Our talk has been rescheduled for Saturday 3/3. I hope you all can listen live, if not the hour will be available as a podcast afterwards.
As usual, I hope I represent you all well!

Standing by....
Flu hit hard here too....NEVER babysit your grandkids when they are sick! (Don't ask me how I know.. )
On top of the personal calamity, the whole town here is flooded! Flood stage on the OH river here is 35'...is supposed to crest at 42.5' on Tuesday!

I've been in contact with John this week and the program is still a go for tomorrow morning, 11:00 AM EST.
For those interested you can listen live through the link below or you can check in on it later on the podcast.
Hey 308Guy . .. I'm sorry I never checked back in . . . the town flooded?!? How are things going now?

Way cool! I'll be listening! Look forward to it!
Perhaps the discussion of wind should come up. Crazy winds here on the east coast today! 60+ mph wind gusts all day! Trees down all over the place. I'm lucky I still have power. How about a "Top Five Wind Songs" discussion. "Dust in the Wind", "Hasten Down the Wind" (Warren Zevon), "Easy Wind" (The Dead), "The Wind Cries Mary" (Hendrix)... "Blowin' in the Wind"!

Well Maniacs, the winds and storms won again!
I just spoke with John and we had to post-pone the interview, again, because of weather. Last time was bad snow, this time the power is out at the station.
If I didn't know better I'd say Lenkov doesn't want me on the air talking about the reboot.
John is understandably frustrated, he's a big Magnum fan and has been looking forward to doing a show like this with me since the Cozi days. But what can you do? You can't fight Mother Nature and who knows, maybe we'll be able to pull in a special guest next time.
Anyway, he and I will be working out a reschedule date later this week. Once we have something set I'll update everyone.
In the mean time we'll just have to Ride the Wind . . . (A song we'd probably all like better if we didn't know who performed it. )

Sorry to hear this CR....somebody like TS maybe? Or how about the desk clerk from "Faith and Begorrah"!
Oh... & BTW....floods have moved on here (for now) thanks for asking!

Sorry to hear it was postponed again, but I'm actually pretty thankful for the storm. It blew about 5" of fresh snow into Vermont, where I'm on a ski vacation right now. Spectacular day of skiing yesterday!
