Futurama find at the thrift store!

Posted on February 13, 2024 by Steve

A co-worker discovered this lost treasure from 2000 at a Goodwill. Only $3 a pair so with tax, not bad to get the whole gang for $15 add them to my theater and other jokes!

September ’23 is half over, so let’s have a joke!

Posted on September 15, 2023 by Steve

As the current Hulu run of Futurama is nearing the end of its first season, I need to watch it all over again (the season, not the whole show) and make sure they’ve kept this up. This reminds me about how … Continue reading →

RIP: Bob Barker

Posted on August 27, 2023 by Steve

Even I was formulating the easy layup joke every hack comedian was thinking. Bob died successfully without going over 100. What a life he had though! With his career hosting game shows and namely the one he was most associated … Continue reading →

David X Cohen’s ears were burning for his birthday!

Posted on July 13, 2023 by Steve

My third Geeky Jersey based upon Planet Express arrived yesterday! Coincidence? I think not! It’s also just in time for the new season on Hulu in about 11 days. Why the ‘number’ F? For us computer-related workers, F = 15 … Continue reading →

Nibblonian spotting

Posted on June 23, 2023 by Steve

Spotted this sticker on a car the night I dropped off the foster cats. I would like to think that Nibbler and his race are good creatures who wouldn’t eat innocent felines who have nothing to do with Thubian-9’s plans. … Continue reading →

Kwanzabot, Nibbler and Robot Santa visit Austin

Posted on December 6, 2022 by Steve

I knew there was a reason why I felt compelled to go to Jason’s Deli for soup last weekend! It’s actually pretty good for the price point you pay too. The only thing I could say that beat it was … Continue reading →

RIP Coolio

Posted on September 29, 2022 by Steve

Sad to hear about Coolio suddenly passing, he was only 59 and was still in demand for his varying talents. Although I’m not into Rap/Hip Hop music, I always loved him for being the voice of Futurama‘s Kwanzabot, a nice, non-violent … Continue reading →

Happy 70th Birthday to Billy West!

Posted on April 16, 2022 by Steve

He’s probably one of the biggest names in voice-acting these days. Even if you’re not into animation (both kid and adult stuff) like me, you’ve heard him for years on TV. Billy has been the Cheerios Honey-Nut Bee and the … Continue reading →

Futurama is back baby! Again, no wait, maybe, take your pick

Posted on February 10, 2022 by Steve

Yesterday’s announcement stating that Hulu ordered 20 new episodes of Futurama on the day Netflix released Disenchantment‘s latest 10 (making it the fourth season), sounded rather auspicious to me. Does this mean Disenchantment is over given how impatient Netflix is? They have cancelled … Continue reading →

RIP Ron Popeil

Posted on August 4, 2021 by Steve

I thought he was already dead. Shows you what little I knew. He did live long enough and then some to be on Futurama and get credited as the man who invented immortality through Head in a Jar technology. Also known as how … Continue reading →

Bender’s cousin?

Posted on July 7, 2021 by Steve

I’ve always wondered about the CapMetro logo sewn into the seats on its light-rail cars. It’s supposed to be the Texas capital building but I can’t help wondering if it’s really a bending unit crossed with a Cylon. You know, … Continue reading →

RIP Hank Aaron

Posted on January 24, 2021 by Steve

I was only nuts about baseball for several years as a kid but I’ve always known about Hank Aaron, the guy who beat Babe Ruth’s longstanding home run record. I don’t care if Barry Bonds allegedly holds it, there’s a … Continue reading →

Bite my red-hot, glowing puck!

Posted on April 15, 2020 by Steve

These jerseys came in from Geeky Jerseys last Fall and I forgot to photograph them. Shame on me given how much I love Futurama! The people behind the site were awesome to me on a special request you’ll see below. Firstly, … Continue reading →

Fry’s dog Seymour spotted!

Posted on August 26, 2019 by Steve

It is unknown if he or his owner (someone related to Mr. Panucci) were singing “Walking on Sunshine” during their daily constitutional.

GWD’s Futurama rematch!

Posted on June 23, 2019 by Steve

About eight years ago, I, along with the other four members of Kappa Kappa Wong snatched semi-defeat from the jaws of victory at Geeks Who Drink’s first, and what seemed to be only, Futurama-themed quiz. Time heals all wounds but I … Continue reading →
