This channel is where I have uploaded whatever I find of interest. Most of these uploads are from the Hampton Roads area (Norfolk/Virginia Beach); though some of my recent uploads have come from outside that area (mainly via eBay purchases)

PLANS:
I made it through June on this CBS Sports series, and on Saturday I posted my notes for that and a few other potential projects to my personal Internet Archive page that I am making available for anyone to use.

My usual Birthday Batch of (this year) 39 uploads will be going on as well.
I'll also try posting custom thumbnails for my older videos and work my way up over time.

2026 PLANS:

1. I still plan to finish out this CBS Sports '90 (I'll be the first to admit that I was hoping to be done with it, but other responsibilities have slowed things down) series.

2. I may still have other ideas for documentaries but I'll probably avoid doing anything this intense in the short term.

3. Speaking of those ideas, I have some others that I've got notes written out already; and I'll be posting those to my personal Internet Archive page (click on more on the main channel page and then click on the link with my name - the last link is the current Internet Archive page), and if you're interested in doing those feel free to do so. All I ask is to be credited for the writing.

Hope you're all having a truly wonderful Christmas today! I have a bonus video as a special gift premiering tonight at 6:00 p.m.

I'll have a post on New Year's Eve detailing my plans for 2026.

It's about a little past halfway between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and I know one additional thing I'm thankful for and that is for the subscribers, now 10,000 strong.

Thanks for your support and viewership.

Some good news on the upload front as I'm only a few subscribers away from the 10,000 milestone.

1. I am currently uploading the commercial blocks from my 2nd most popular upload: The 2014 recording of "The Kid Who Loved Christmas"

2. As I type this; I'm also transferring a group of Christmas specials recorded in 1985 from VHS; and most of the specials have commercials intact.

And apparently the upload of the CBS News special on Lucille Ball just got blocked in the U.S. and Canada (though this is not a strike on this channel)

It's almost time for another tradition of sorts; as starting tomorrow I'm planning to have at least one Christmas-themed video go up through Christmas Day. Some days will have more than one
