Well - it seems my lymphoma diagnosis is such that I'll never get to play my Atari 7800 XM. Kind of a bummer but may be looking for a new home for this soon.

I'm still surprised that Taco Tico still exits despite all the locations close to me closing down. I wonder if there are any other former iconic restaurant chains still open on technicality?

It's hard being a Tennessee Vol fan sometimes.

I feel like I haven't been around here in forever. :/

When I was a kid I tried to take the Pepsi challenge but they wouldn’t accept my write in vote for RC Cola.

The moose says you're closed, I say you're open.

I think I have to take the Boat Club job. It's the level of cuisine I want to work at, the only downside is the pay cut, but quality of life is as good as $$ sometimes.

Happy Birthday, Albert!

Ok... Free night tomorrow. Wife, kids and houseguest all vacate... (for 24hr). What geekery shall I undertake, mmm?

I'm so proud of my son! He just got a paper football scholarship to a prestigious high school!

What is the deal with the Boba Fett emoji in the AA posting form? It seems highly specialized for an open communication medium... I don't recall the last time that I had to express a Boba Fett emotion or thought...

I'm the second largest producer of methane in the entire U.S.

The Atari 2600 video game release date page for 1988 is done: http://www.randomterrain.com/atari-2600-memories-history-1988.html As usual, there's more trivia to add, but the main stuff is done. Next is 1989 and 1991. There were no NTSC 2600 games in 1990, but I'll put the pop culture stuff on it anyway and upload it after I get done with the other two pages.

Tonight I'm going to watch the ballgame on my new Samsung smart fridge...

Is it just me or have Dilly Bars gotten smaller?

Is a CIB Mattel Aquarius Computer System worth $300? I am talking all the componenents like printer, mini expander, 16K expander, two games, etc in one box. Note, the place I saw it at tests all toys and is VERY picky about their stuff. Also saw a loose IntellivisionII with games and the computer expansion for $100 there.

I'm saddened to see that today would have been Ken Siders's 50th birthday. I've got a copy of Beef Drop on the way, and in retrospect, I wish I had played more of his games while I still had the chance to thank him "in person" for them. A great talent, gone too soon. RIP.

Baby Timothy came at 11:30 today. He’s a beautiful 9lb little guy. Unfortunately he will need surgeries to correct his cleft palate but god willing he will be ok!

Anyone still saving up for a Nintendo Switch? Super Mario Odyssey looks incredible!

Little girl trying to play a Game Boy. This one will be all over Facebook soon, I'm sure... https://i.imgur.com/27UWG6Q.gifv

guy was suppose to load up the car and meet me at the airport. Didn't show. after 40 calls..i flew back home!

For most college teams was 1st game, UM had me worried with those back to back pick 6's but managed to dominate Florida. Since Michigan has been pretty good under Harbaugh, tickets for the darn games are 100 plus for decent seats. Still will try to go to one game this year or as wife said, why dont we do road trip and catch them on the road. Sounds good to me. Hope all your teams did well.

Just picked up one of those $20 mini arcade games (Q*Bert) at Walmart. Seems cool, except the on/off button is broken and it doesn't turn off. *sigh*

Live near a place that is having a blowout sale on arcade machines, but I've been told by management (my gf) I am not allowed to partake
