I just successfully performed this upgrade: http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/3489-atari-600xl-upgrade-to-64k/ . I feel like a whole new world is at my disposal...

Maybe, if I work hard enough, I can get passed H.E.R.O. (8-bit) level 8... I suck at this game :-(

I started Sonic Forces on the Switch tonight. Levels seem really short, extremely easy, and the story is pretty shallow (even for Sonic), but it's fun...sort of like the love child of Sonic Colors and Sonic Adventure...

Wahoo! 600XL on it's way. Hopefully, I can track down a multicart!

I think I'm caught up on the Coleco drama. Holy wow. On a less shit-show note, DK helped reacquaint me to the 7800 tonight. I hadn't played one in at least 5 years. Getting reacquainted with these classics is making me feel grateful for what I held onto, before we moved across the country in '13. At that time, we combined households, and I sold off a good 3/4 of the collection I'd amassed over the years. I'm glad I didn't shed all of it :-)

Come on, snow day! I believe in you!

Dang! It's been almost 5 years, since I was last active here. A tremendous amount of significant events have occurred since then. I feel like it will take a year to catch up! I'm particularly curious about the Coleco drama! Oye!

Porky's is officially the most frustrating game I've ever played on the 2600. Design is decent, graphics are nice, hit detection is TERRIBLE. FUCK PORKY'S!

I didn't realize beating variation 2 of Adventure for the first time could be so thrilling...

So, is there still a Heavy Sixer OFFICIAL LIST around? The one I knew of seems to have been replaced, but neither have been touched in awhile.

I just performed my first soldering job on a console. My first run 2600 lives!

= devastated.

thinks that loyalty is a funny word.

sometimes forgets that expectations lead only to resentment.

has never seen so many consecutive status messages that contain both the word 'haters' and the phrase 'suck it.' It's as though Kathy Griffin has hijacked all of my friends' accounts to comment on something called a Madge...

could teach you,

was nervous about attending a read-through this evening. He hasn't done a play play in nearly ten years. This should be fun :-)

is seeing his undergrad graduation yearbook for the first time. Apparently, he wasn't much of a joiner in 2006....

I hope that your day is better than yesterday!

thinks that on a basic 1-10 scale, 1 being worst and 10 being best, today is a SUCK...

can't handle slow-talkers or mouth-breathers today...

misses a time (not so long ago) when he could post really cryptic things on Facebook, and no one would bat an eye or take it too seriously. Perhaps they did bat an eye, though, and I'm just now old enough to realize how counter-productive that kind of thing can be.

wants to thank Conor Engelbrecht for sending 24 text messages to his mobile phone today....jerk

left his phone at home today. Liberated? Perhaps...

is thrilled! He just found out that a coworker is friends with the people who blew up their garage. It turns out that they're not meth cooks at all, but are just hillbillies with little respect for fire safety.
