When I was a kid I was real good at shooting marbles.
But who plays marbles any more, even children?

I don't know who plays them but they have tons on sale on places like amazon. Usually listed under Games: Dice & Marbles. My guess it has become more of an indoor game over the years. That said, my niece collects marbles in glass jars for decoration.

I had mad skills dialing with my thumb on rotary phones  TeddyR
Marbles are also good for marble runs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_ball_sculpture

On the topic of the thread, I used to know a fair number of MS-DOS commands.

I know some too.  Probably not a whole lot taken on the whole of all the commands that were available, but enough to get around and do some simple batch file scripting. 

I'm one of those who has the terminal shortcut on my command bar on my Mac.  Done a bit of work with various Unix/Linux/etc systems over the years so I know some of those commands as well and have done some shell scripting with those.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
