First? damn I have no life!
Congrats on the NPR story. The use of the “Rocket” science song is starting to trouble me little, though, not because I dislike it (it’s perfect for the show), but because I think its creators may deserve something for the song’s creation and use. Should we find these performers and send them a dollar, if they are, in fact, to be found?
Of course, I meant trouble me “a” little…
I want to see how they hid the defibrillator box inside Bush’s jacket during the 2004 debates. Was it a round the chest trap, or over the shoulder?
And what about the earpiece? I want to try that! I want to hear the Veep!
By the way, everyone go now and google for “Leave it to Bush”.
Hmm… after Googling it, found out that the rocket song guy, Tom Glazer, died in 2003. We can take all would-be-donated dollars and buy a Chevy Tahoe instead.
at times i still wish i lived in new york .. .
:(
great show .. .
wow. did I just wake up? today is the first day of my new life. thnx npr…I will no longer sip my morning cognac, blindly listening to your views of the world. no! now there is amanda. “I wonder what the rest of my day will look like, now that I see clearly?” hmmm…
Great show. Now, please learn to use the shutter control on the camera. Will make a world of difference next time you’re attempting to shoot a TV, computer, or stroboscopic sculpture.
Dear Amanda,
Not Cheesy and not a Cheezecake either.
As Ever,
Eyeball
Amanda is the coolest girl in the world.
There’s a Robert Deniro display in this museum that featured a clip of Jack Lamota grunting and shadow boxing. For a while I thought the sound was a real person doing it (I’ve been there more than once). My personal favorite is the Red Grooms Egyptian Theatre.
Talk about great technology… heard about Rocketboom on NPR this morning, tuned in and am inspired by you young folks creative, ingenious use of the web. LOVED the Iraq ‘news’!
Keep it up… I’m hooked.

(they should have showed ‘T-squares’ and ‘Pencils’ in the techno-history museum… that’s what I used as a graphic designer when I started in 1973.)
Like others, this is my first visit, and I will be back. Thanks NPR! and thanks to all the folks who produce RB.
What a great, fun show! I loved it! Now I wish I was going to NY on vacation this year.
I have to disagree….i thought todays show was anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-intellectualism!

Nice piece. I always wondered what else was there, other than vintage equipment and artifacts.
and Trek collectibles! I am so there.
Kudos on the NPR piece!
Ah, singing science songs. My inner child has been released into the wild. =^ )
Well, my first visit here thanks to NPR which I don’t usually listen to because I am not a liberal cry baby, but this site is great!! Love it, get ready for many new viewers!!
Bush bashers shut up, there are other valid opinions in this country and you are not all as smart as you think you are. Now have a nice day and drop the politics :)
Very cool! Nice job, Amanda!
By the way, Amanda you are a real Hottie!! but you already knew that :)
Hubba Hubba…. and what a great sense of humor, love it :)
Rocketboom rules the Vlogosphere!
Great show.
Amanda has fun and takes us along with her. Always fun to see.
Really relaxed, interesting show today. I love these field trips to places I never knew existed. And I love to go with Amanda.
Thanks RB
See thru? Now isn’t the fantasy always better. Isn’t illusion a great guiding light. The spirit sparkle of A. Congdon is just dandy without a peep show. So let’s be happy with the intelligence and the fun. Woof Woof
What a cool place! I’ll be chaperoning a bunch of my college students on a trip to NYC at the end of June, and I definately want to try to get there.
And major congrats on the NPR interview, although he really didn’t let you talk all that much. But combining two of my favorite sources of information is grand. Now if you can just get on the Daily Show I can die a happy man. :-)
I woke up this morning, turned on my radio (it’s always on public radio) and heard the interview! Congratulations!

Why do they go to Wounded Knee?
Penance
You never came back to the flip book?
What gives?

NPR is to liberal democrats what fox news is to republican conservatives.
(If it weren’t 2:40 am there’s no way I’d leave behind such flamebait)
The interview was mediocre. His fault not yours, and also bc it was too short and was working under the assumption people listening had never heard of you.
Yah, we your loyal viewers get the reason for the map already.
I would ask you hard edgy insightful kick ass questions that fans would just eat up. Or maybe I just I think I would bc its 3 am.

Excellent Entry!
I had no idea that museum even existed! Thank you for the great reporting!
Great shows. I’m a fan now. Thanks NPR!
I’m glad I read the 5-11-06 comments (I don’t usually); otherwise I wouldn’t have known about the NPR interview and the Katrina program. Even though people found it painful to watch, that seems no reason to remove it from the archives. The clip conveyed the hopelessness and despair that followed Katrina; we shouldn’t conveneniently shelve that reaction. Should “United 93″ have a happy ending added, since it’s upsetting, too?
On a lighter note, I’ve been a fan since the NYT story last fall. Amanda, your ship WILL come in! Your combination of talent, spark, insouciance, and ability not to take yourself too seriously (as well as a lovely way with impolitic language) will have you in Streepdom one of these days. I’m glad to see a bit more of ABC (Amanda’s Beautiful Curves, or Amazing Bod’, Christalmighty) in recent episodes. Keep up the good work!

No Friday RB? you guys were partying real late Thursday evening? (no more xbox360 for you on weekdays!)
Cool museum. Nezt time I’m in New York, I’ll go and visit it.
Th flip book is kind of cool. Although I guess one could make one with a video camera…. print the stills… and put them together..

I live in Oklahoma and my daughter lives in Queens right close by to Rocketboom! Thanks NPR. Now when I visit my offspring I can go make Regan’s head spin.
Was this Friday too casual or am i Missing something here?
what happened to Friday’s vlog??
I guess it was to good to be true?
Amanda was abducted by aliens.
The UN is negotiating for her release!
Could be quite a while folks!
Quite a while!
chill everybody. it’s coming.
Your vblogs are extraordinary.
Yours is like addiction. I downloaded a number of vblogs and replay over and over. I learn a lot. Keep doing/ creating. Thank you very much

That place looks FASCINATING. Having no real means of transportation, it’d be really difficult for me to get to NY…but damn if I don’t REALLY want to go there now! XD
I have been to that Museum - several times actually. The flip book maker is great - I have several flip books of myself performing sweet Ninja moves.
Its a great museum for non-artsy people like myself. I highly recomend it - plus its easy to get there on the Subway.
