Nothing better than taking advantage of a late evening E-Skip opening to Texas, while a squall line is moving through. (6/10/26)

No one told me that joy comes in weird packages from eBay

The screen is on, showing an Android-style home screen with a blue geometric wallpaper, a clock widget, and app icons including Camera, Staging, PTT Express, Calendar, AppGallery, TechDocs, and Gallery. The device has a thick protective bezel and physical navigation buttons at the bottom

I love my brick phones!
Three vintage mobile phones lying on a wooden table: a woodgrain-styled handset on the left showing “HOME” on its monochrome screen, a black Nokia candy-bar phone in the center, and a blue Nokia phone on the right with green indicator lights on. All three have small monochrome displays, physical keypads, and visible wear, emphasizing their early-2000s design.

I love old cell phones
Hand holding a closed red Motorola V60x flip phone. The small external monochrome display shows the date and time (1/1/26, 10:00 pm). The antenna is extended, and a blurred keyboard and monitor are visible in the background with purple ambient light. Hand holding an open Motorola V60x flip phone. The green monochrome internal screen shows the time (10:00 pm) and date (1/1/26), with signal and battery icons visible. The keypad and navigation buttons are in view, with a blurred computer keyboard and monitor in the background under purple lighting.

La familia.
A collection of computer systems in one room. On the left, there are three grey metal boxes, each labeled with "The Weather Channel" logo, stacked on one another. The bottom box is labeled "IntelliStar 2 xD", and the two above it are labeled "IntelliStar 2 Jr". Each computer has a vent exposed for air flow, with a fan behind each vent. The bottom two computers have fans that emit a blue LED. The top computer has a fan emitting a pink LED. Each of the three has a blue LED for power indication on the front panel. Sitting on top of the third IntelliStar system is a bare metal computer, with its rear side facing the camera, exposing it's I/O. There are various interface ports on the left side of the chassis, and on the right there is an interface with two pairs of analog video ports. There is a plug for power input. This system is an Silicon Graphics "O2". On the right side of the photo, there is a weirdly shaped computer system with a dark blue shell wearing a "Silicon Graphics" badge on the front. On the bottom, there is grey foundation piece that holds the chassis together, labeled "O2" on the bottom left. There are grilles for a speaker. In the center of the photo slightly to the right, there is a grey metal box mounted inside of a black computer rack. This metal box is labeled "Weather Star XL, The Weather Channel" on the front and has handles on the left and right side of the box. There is a white label on the front. There are two holes for power and reset. Above that grey box, there is another "IntelliStar 2 Jr" box exactly as describe previously, this time located inside of the computer rack. It is wearing a pink sticker with the text "VBA 4". Above that system, there is a beige, vertically slim system labeled "The Weather Star Jr. It has 8 LEDs on the front, three of which are lit up green. Above that system, there is a grey box labeled "The Weather Star Jr Audio Alert", with 2 LEDs, one lit red. There is a The Weather Channel logo on the right.

VCF has fueled my addiction. I have added an X240 and an X1 Carbon G3 in addition to the T460 I have had for almost a year. Someone stop me…

Had a great time at #VCFMW! Met tons of great people and got to hang out with the best group of friends I could ever ask for. I can’t wait for the next one!
