In 1958 when Ward Kimball produced “Magic Highway, U.S.A.” for Disneyland, the vision of the future looked a lot like…1958. Aesthetically speaking, that is. Much of the technology still waits to be invented. This month’s Random threads celebrate how imaginations of the past portrayed the future, but in the present, of course, you may be as random as you like.
For the curious, an 8:47-minute excerpt of “Magic Highway, U.S.A.” may be found on YouTube:

No time to make this pretty right now — suffice it to say that MuseBlog is back in business! Welcome, Studgers, um, we mean Musers!
Howdy, stranger! You new around here? Come right in! We’ve got some pie waiting for you, and friendly locals ready to answer your questions and help you feel at home.
For starters, we recommend that newcomers (that’s what “neophytes” means) look over The Rules and The HG2MB (Hitchhiker’s Guide to MuseBlog), which contains more helpful information than you can shake a stick at. We don’t know why you’d want to shake a stick at it, but now you know you don’t have to bother.
Don’t forget to stop by Who’s Here (see the menu at the top of your screen) and announce your arrival in a comment there, so we’ll be sure to add you to the official list.
MuseBlog Veterans: Please use this thread only to welcome newcomers as they arrive and answer questions that they ask.

Enter the circle of emoticons and follow the path of randomness. The journey begins anew on our monthly Random Thread.
(Users’ Manual: Obey The Rules. Consult The Guide. Have fun!)
Our first Random Thread of 2009 kicks off our Year of Random Celebrations with a salute to that stalwart factotum, the emoticon. They signal our moods, speak for us when words don’t do, provide work for Smiley Gnomes, and illuminate stupid senseless stories that would otherwise be simply stupid senseless text stories.
