What the Boss Likes – Some time killers for a Friday

  1. Thanks for reminding me of Rocky Horror! Since I’ve seen it on stage (they make the whole audience sing and dance!) the music makes me go mad. 🙂

    Zooniverse is great! Looking for shellfish on the bottom of the sea can be really absorbing.

    1. I saw it for the first time as the movie in college. I had heard about it and just sat with my jaw dropped through the whole thing. My husband has been to some of the more interactive screenings, not me. He’d make a good Riff Raff if he shaved his goatee and ‘stache.

    1. that’s exactly what I thought when I saw them. 🙂 I love post-apocalyptic stuff and one of my favorites is the Planet of the Apes series from the 60s-70s. I can just see the mutants living in those tunnels.
