It’s hard to believe that it has already been a week since Amusement Expo 2020 took place. This post and editing videos has kept me busy, but finally it’s ready to go.

This Newsbytes was meant to be run back on February 8th, but as I was finishing it up, the site crashed and began the week long nightmare of not working properly. Fortunately that has passed so it can be a distant memory before too long. I’m also happy that the post remained intact, although »
