  1. Frenzy for the 7800 is awesome. Another gem from PacManPlus.

      Thank you :)

       

      @Brian R.: Your cart went out on Monday, you should have it very soon!

  2. Torn between watching Tigers game 3 or playing brand-new Frenzy on my 7800...

      Why not do both?

      7800 - I hate all Detroit sports teams

  3. Giving my long-neglected 5200 some playtime this week. Sooo many good titles...

      I gave mine pride of place on the entertainment center. The 7800 now sits off to its side. I heart my 5200 very much.

  4. Adding to my 5200 collection - Pengo, Moon Patrol, Tennis and Baseball!

      All good, but Baseball is great. Fun to play, and cool voice.

  5. Saying goodbye to my girlfriend's cat this afternoon. R.I.P, Sunny Jim. :_(

      I know what you feel, I had to have my 16 years old cat euthanized 2 days ago... He was almost unable to walk and suffering a lot... :(

      My condolences. I lost my dog about a year and a half ago in a road accident.

      Jim was 18 or 19 and in failing health... he went peacefully, with people that loved him. Thank you both.

      Even harmless lost pets aren't safe in this ignorant, violent armpit of a town. I bet we have more guns than high school diplomas. RIP, Chum.

      Detroit as a whole doesn't suck. It's the politicians that sucked the city dry so people in their own neighborhood had to deal with it.

  6. Listening to the Tigers game on an old vaccuum-tube radio.. lazy Sunday afternoon.

      To me Tiger baseball on the radio will always be Ernie Harwell and Paul Carey.

  7. I'm so bored, I'm drinking bleach.

      Somehow that's really not very amusing.

      Comet - it makes your teeth turn green;

      Comet - it tastes like gasoline;

      Comet - it makes you vomit;

      So take some Comet and vomit today!

      now I have that "Bridge over the River Qwai" tune in my head

  8. Lazy, rainy Sunday afternoon. Perfect to spend with my 800 and some games.

  9. Robyn Hitchcock's 'I Often Dream of Trains' is a surprisingly good pairing with an afternoon of shooting up the Caverns of Mars.

  10. Too sick to even play Qix. I'm gonna have some soup and go back to bed.

  19. Rediscovering Pressure Cooker and Dark Cavern on my 2600. Two of my old favorites.

  20. Scramble kicks ass! Chetiry's awesome! I hadn't had time to play since they came in Thursday's mail. Finally got some 'Atari time' tonight!

  21. Had lunch with my girlfriend at National Coney yesterday and the bill came to $17.02, which made me smile. I'm officially a geek.

      $13.37 I could understand, but I'm stumped by $17.02. Google didn't help much. I tried 1702, ITOZ and LTOZ

      The Commodore 1702 is the best composite color monitor ever made. Use one for my 8-bits.

  22. Loving the 32-in-1 OS upgrade in my 1200XL!
