Fuck it, I'll watch Pirates of Dark Water
Well fuck
Somebody lied
So much
So much good stuff
Sierra Trading Post has been around for a long time, 1986 apparently. Had to double check who came first and I guess Sierra Entertainment/On-Line beat the clothing company by four years (1982). The Sierra Club beat them both by a century though.

Looking more in to this album and it turns out there's a few variants
One that's all Wolcott, one with a Bing Crosby record (the one I have), and one with The Andrews Sisters
I wasn't going to sell this because it's one of my favorite Disney movies, but it's worth quite a bit
The lead is okay but it's the cadmium that adds real flavor

Was trying to find out more about these glasses and it turns out there's two different sets of four each
The outdoor ones, hammock, canoe, seesaw, and skateboard
Then there's the ones with red, blue, green, and yellow tiles

Got my channel modulator
It's better, still fuzzy but with far fewer issues
Only get audio in my back room but I think I need a better antenna anyway
Wait, that's not last
Got some classic Christmas on DVD, From Hell, cassette audio book of Les Mis, and some great 90s albums on CD
And lastly
A bunch of tapes for myself
Set of 10 Columbia House Petticoat Junction, CNN Millennium 2000 (sealed), The Birdcage, Angels In The Outfield, and a recorded tape
And about the design of this player
