In case you haven't seen it, this was my vision for a cover for the Ear Candy expansion to Rock Hard: 1977. I love the look of '70s album covers.
@devirgames.bsky.social has posted the rules for the Ear Candy expansion to Rock Hard: 1977 if you'd like a peek at the gameplay and components. boardgamegeek.com/filepage/325...

For 50+ years I've been wishing I had photos from the night in 1975 when my friends and I dressed up as Kiss and jammed. And now it turns out that a precious few exist. Thank you to Jeff Stephens, who kept a few of them, and to Scott Newell and the late John Papadakis, who are with in this photo!

CAT OWNERS-PLEASE READ My cat, Peanut, has taken to drowning her toys. This morning I took a red pom pom out of her toy box. Tonight this is what her water dish looked like. From now on, I will either give her natural toys or check each toy for colorfastness before I let her put it into her mouth.
I have a follower on FB who keeps sending me decades-old photos of myself with "Gorgeous" on there. It's kinda starting to creep me out.
