    And another thing, as God is my witness, I will never play Super Mario Bros. 3 again!

      Lol. What does Corey Feldman's alleged activities have to do with the creators of that game?

      Getting paid off happens all the time. Why would you pay a potential 5 years plus in lawyers fees versus a settlement that may only be what it would cost you for that lawyer for 1 year?

      To be fair, that's where The Wizard belonged in the first place.

      Of course, we don't know what exactly happened but I guess he held her hand and asked for an affair. He was 17. Sounds like puppy love or something. Not that it wasn't distressing for the woman.

    NHL 94 last man standing Jaromir Jagr placed on waivers. This might be the end.

    Hey maybe I should have just resurrected the old 1.0 thread instead. If the mods think it's a good idea maybe they can merge this one with that one.

    Hey thanks for the tip. Really excited about MAME support. I will have to see how it's implemented as MAME kind of has its own built-in UI. And then you've got to find ROMs that match your version which is a big pain. I was happy to see that they were using Stella for 2600, but didn't realize it was such an old version. They are using 3.9.3.2 vs the current version of 5..0.2. I wonder why they are using such an old version. Right now I've gotten myself lost in the TurboGrafx library. I've never had much of a chance to play it until now! Keith Courage FTW!

      we always had to wait for the dry cleaners next door to throw away their 5 gallon bleach containers. Would pour out what we could and used a turkey baster to suck up the rest. Now those were the days!

    A debit machine slip is not a receipt.

      Well, technically it is a receipt of your transaction with the debit machine, is it not?

      It's the very definition of a receipt..."a written acknowledgment of having received, or taken into one's possession, a specified amount of money, goods, etc."

    Yeah, one dedicated thread for this and an OP that interacts should be the rule. I like the Battle Of The Ports thread.

    So I'm finally going to upgrade from Snow Leopard 10.6 tonight (the highest my Macbook can run is El Capitan 10.11). Snow Leopard is the best OS I've ever run, and I don't want to upgrade, but Microsoft disabled Skype for 10.6 a while back, and even though I found a hack that could keep it working, they've now even disabled the hack from working. And I have to call my mother. Sigh. Plus, I think I've gone a long as I could with out-of-date browsers. Some sites are starting not to work properly. I was going to maybe buy a new computer instead of upgrading at all, but I don't have time or money right now and I need to wait and see what Intel does about this mega-bug they found. So goodbye Snow Leopard. Boooooooooo.

      The 'Hold' function at work requires a phone number on the tags, and the computer won't let 1234 go- so Jenny holds a lot of crap where I work.
