KevHead #1 - ca 1990-91
Going through the attic reveals a lot of gemstones, at least for the sake of nostalgia for a time when it was still possible to do six impossible things before breakfast....or in this case, merge two hospital pharmacy data processes into one, create two editions of Sparks Audio with the dynamic Michael Packer, build six editions of KevHead (one of which, #5, seems to have been eaten by gremlins), work full time as an acting pharmacy director, AND create a calendar for 1992. Using a DOS 6 WordPerfect platform, a lot of glue sticks, and layout sheets with a pale blue grid, this all somehow was created....quite a year.

Sparrow Discovers Lake Huron - 2013
Just a mere whelp was she, embracing her opportunity for some unfettered exercise in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. "A Good Time Was Had by All."

Nixon Resigns and Ford Inaugurated - August 1974
With Super 8mm film and some lucky "wild sound" lip synching....
...a homemade kinescope!...
It was a warm summer in 1974, and the shredded lettuce at Burger Chef tasted so sweet...like the sweet taste of shredded Watergate documents...the sound came a few months later when a magnetic stripe was added to the original super 8mm film and the whole thing recorded on the fly, complete with projector noise. Back when you could still do six impossible things before breakfast...
