In comments today, we talked about a nightmare clown stalking an English hamlet, looked at the role (or lack thereof) of fortune-telling in scifi, and watched dancers battling errant beams of light. But this comment from Steve Climaco drove a tiny clown car straight into my heart.

Responding to a post on the retro tech we’d love to see come back, Steve wrote:

I know they’re not that old, but Boom Boxes. Something tells me if we had more boom boxes, we’d have more random break dancing competitions/ a lot more people confessing their love of one another by holding them up in the air. The world would be a better place.

Congratulations, Steve Climaco! Please proceed directly to the Big Top and take your bow.
