I think I might be better at 3D racing games than I used to be, and worse at overhead racing games than I used to be.

Momma had a chickie! Momma had a cow! Dad was proud! He didn't care how!

Ugh! Biggest spider I'd ever seen in my house last night. HUGE sucker might have been carrying a bunch of babies, it was over my bed. Saw it, squished the hell out of it. Fortunately I did not have a nightmare about spiders.

Doing an episode guide and some of the episodes I"m watching are only available from this YouTube guy recording from his cellphone with a VERY unsteady hand, and with animals making noises. Very annoying.

So pissed.. finally bit the bullet and bought a Smartphone, basically to be able to get a public transportation app. Now I hear the app won't work on my phone because I need a NFC chip. F***! I hope the Cricket store can install one for me..

NFC = Near Field Communication. You tap it on an NFC reader to complete certain kinds of transactions. These are typically found on credit cards, government IDs, and recent-ish smartphones. It's not the kind of thing that you can install after the fact, it should be built in. You might want to get the Cricket store to swap out your hardware for you. If this is a new purchase, that shouldn't be a problem, but you'll probably have to pay a little more for a better device.

Mm-hmm... it's coming to me now, I see financial disaster in your future!

Finally almost finished with cleaning the house.. my bedroom was filled with dust and spiderwebs. Sneezed all night.

NBA Draft tomorrow! Who do you want your team to pick?

Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too, I got the rockin' pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu..

Gotta love trimming big limbs off of trees-- face/hair full of sawdust, dirt and bugs. Plus scratches all over my arms/legs. Whee!

Some jackass is posting on all my YouTube videos what appears to be simply the release date for the games in my videos (for example, 5/7/1983) and nothing else. Through, like, 3 or 4 different accounts. What the hell?!
-
Heh.. only 600 more episodes of Press Your Luck (1983-86) for my Episode Guide.. (nervous laugh)

I wish a .gif file could be pronounced "giff". JIF is peanut butter!

I pronounce it "giff" because (as already mentioned) it stands for Graphics Interchange Format. I'd never heard it differently until my habits had already been permanently set.
To really annoy people, you can pronounce it "gifffffffff" and really drag that f out.
Or, start calling another file fomat "j-pej".

Slaving away at my Press Your Luck episode guide. Fitting, what with the new series premiering this week!

If anyone plays the vector game WARRIOR on MAME, how do you get the controls to work properly? I can't make the knight swing his sword fast at all.

Man, Brightburn was a good flick! I hope there is a sequel.

My first lasagna from scratch was a rousing success! Used 2 1/2 lbs of beef, nearly 2 lbs. each of shredded ched and mozz, 2 jars of sauce and a f***ton of spices. Absurdly good!

The big tree in my yard fell over yesterday and completely missed my house, fence and telephone wires! LUCKY! Spent much of today sawing/chopping it up. Anyone need firewood?

That happened to us one December- got the power lines, but missed the house by inches and fell in-between the cars in the driveway. Power company fixed the lines within a few hours. Found a strange lady poking around our yard a couple hours later- when I went out, she popped up holding a pair of clippers and asked if she could get some greenery for Christmas wreaths. Told her sure, go nuts.
Glad you made it out unscathed!

How annoying.. YouTube needs to bring back a way to upload an intro to your videos, that you can make the intro to ALL your uploaded videos.

Yay Blazers!

Cool! New personal best high scores today on Dig Dug, Burgertime and Pac-Man (original arcade cabinets) today!
