So Danielle Rousseau was infected?


So you are in luck this week because you get another PODCAST! Yea!!! this is number 13 HERE.

Anyway, I liked my post so much last week I was going to talk about toys again. My sister (yes the same one that popped my dino) reminded me of a childhood toy that I loved when I was younger. It is called Glowbug.

He looked exactly like this. He would glow in the dark when you put him up to light. I used to have so much fun with him... until he was left on the lamp lightbulb and... melted...


The next toys were my brother's favorites. I got to play with them... well when he wasn't watching and when we would battle together. they are called battle beasts



Basically what they are is some sort of animal with super suits and weapons and they would battle for world dominance, I think my guys always lost....


And for the third item... well some more random Nintendo stuff that had more potential than children's minds could grasp. Introducing the Power Pad
This cool toy was for the first nintendo, basically you would run on it and your character on the screen would run too. It made for a good workout. It was the first "Wii Fit"

The second is the Super Nintendo SuperScope

Yes this is a giant bazooka. It sounds cooler than it really was.

and third is the Virtual Boy

Yes it is a game boy in 3D. basically you would attach your face to it and play. It was like a close up TV while wearing 3D glasses. Though it was fun, all the games were red characters and red lasers.... yeah I still wonder why I don't need glasses after that...

Well That is all for this post. Hope you enjoyed the podcast.

Blast from the Past

I realized that some people new to this blog or new to the Keaton Jolley Podcasts could be LOST right now looking for how it all began. Rather than file through all my old posts to find some of my first podcasts I am going to slowly put the first ones online just like the recent ones. When I first started podcasting, I talked a lot longer and I didn't do video, I only did random pictures. Remember this podcast is from back in April. So... I decided that I would ease you into them slowly, going backwards, here is a little blast from my past with THE THIRD PODCAST. CLICK HERE

In honor of this post the other day I realized that I love being a kid at heart. One of the things that influenced my life were my toys. So in honor of blast from the past I give these next pictures credit for influencing a small part of my life.

This picture is as great as it looks, when I was little I got a blow up dinosaur! Just what I always wanted... that lasted for about 3 seconds when my older sister decided she wanted to ride on it too... spiky never inflated again...


He still creeps me out, My Pet Monster never really was mine, he was my older brothers. This little guy was bigger than me growing up and scared me to death. I still have nightmares about him even though in his story he is a good guy.

Yes Nintendo made this list. I grew up with the original NES but my later childhood was based around the Super Nintendo. Though there was one thing for the NES was awesome/never worked... THE POWER GLOVE


Pogs? I got into them for a while, I'm still waiting for them to have their comeback movie so I can say I was there from the get go.



And I saved the best for last. My ninja turtles and I had some good memories, though it wasn't me that spilled ooze on the living room carpet. No, it really wasn't me, it was my brother.

Happy 2010
