I have a spare 50" vizio HDTV sitting in my basement collecting dust, I'm thinking about making it a TATE monitor for Saturn shmups. I mean, I think I just need to secure the thing sideways right?

Yeah @MrMaddog, I think I remember seeing some kind of 90 degree swivel wall mount for just this sort of thing.

I've never played Quake.

It's official, we're old! Tune-In has a radio station called 90's CLASSIC ROCK

That's like, the best, most practical response to the issue, lol, I guess I was kinda thinking that way, but it hadn't quite clarified in my brain. Good Point!

I think Scott toilet paper is designed to be anti-theft, because it's so terrible.

Thanks @frankodragon! I lost it on "ass in the air"!?

We took I-75 from Indianapolis all the way to Tampa, and back. I'm generally a confident and when necessary, aggressive driver. I-75 is will put you in your place!

75 through Atlanta at rush hour will age you a couple years for every mile; 5 years per mile if you’re trying to actually get off and into downtown. I actually think following I-24 through downtown Nashville is worse if you’re not aware of the necessary lane changes and merges to make in a very short linear distance, but do it a few days in a row and it’s no big deal.

The computer monitor for my printing press is so old, it has a 'degauss' button

I plan on buying a new Boiler (furnace) this year, and am considering having one of those big natural gas powered generators installed. I have the room in the basement, but I don't know if those can go inside the house, I think they get hot. Anyone have experience with these? Generac and Briggs and Stratton make quite a few variants

I discovered a scifi show last night called Other Space. Hilarious, but there's only 8 eps I guess. It has Lily the at&t babe as a main character.

Started my new years resolution of only buying games from the Atari Age Store in 2021. I pre-ordered Rebooted, Magical Fairy Force and Blaster (5200)

I'm making a pledge right now. It is my intention to only purchase video games in 2021 from the AA store. Did you guys see that store update?
-
Screw it. Pitfall is a damn tough game. It appears very simple, but requires pin point accuracy. I don't think I've ever completed all 20 minutes.

One of those days where all of a sudden, I'm terrible at video games.
-
Well that's a new one. I just had an update downloaded to my Sony television remote control. I have no idea what it consisted of, and am only left questioning why a remote control needs an update.

"I'm gonna take you to the bank Senator Trent. To the Blood Bank" hahaha one of the worst one-liners ever. Guess the movie.

Watching F.I.S.T right now. This is definitely a lesser known Sylvester Stallone flick, but really good.
-
Lee Van Cleef is so epic. I'm torn though, is he more or less awesome for wearing the exact same outfit in every spaghetti western? He wears a black duster with a shoulder cape. Almost every spaghetti!

The eye doctor told me to not consider corrective laser surgery until after my eyes change to needing bifocals. He said if you do it before, at my age (45), you could need it again in 6 months. Makes sense.
-
My wife's uncle is a prominent ophthalmologist who still practices at age 83 and has like 55 years experience. When I first met him in 2014, I saw that he wears glasses, and I asked if he recommends corrective surgery. He replied that he'd never get it and never recommends it because things can go wrong. Some people experience horrible pain the rest of their lives after getting it done. Of course this is just the advice of ONE eye doc -- admittedly at the end of his career. But he's the smartest person in my family. He graduated summa cum laude with a BS in Physics and went to medical school.

I had RK done in, lessee '95. That's Knives not Lasers. It was Fantastic!,...Lasted for decades too, but eventually my eyesight went down a bit on its own and I wear glasses (minor "progressives"). I asked about LASIK to correct a mild astigmatism in one eye but the doc said it was too minor to worry about...

So, I usually have about 5-6 game consoles hooked up at any given time. Eventually, one doesn't see much play for months, then I put it away and replace it with a different console. Then, about 2 weeks later, I start craving to play the console that I just boxed up. It's true, you don't miss it until it's gone.

I go with Masschambers style pretty much.
At my "other haunt", I've been Peer Choice "Most Prolific" for three years running now, which to me means "does the most different things, *pretty well*", tho they don't quite define it that way(I think it's based on..."being entertaining/enthusiastic", lol.).
I really only started playing the classic systems again about 5 years ago, but I have well over a couple dozen now.
I'll get on one primary system, and kinda make a list of things I want to accomplish before "putting it up for a while", but in the meantime I'll occasionally distract myself with another system to break up the monotony.
When I complete or give up on my goals(lol), I'll put the primary towards "the back of the line", pick a new primary, and keep cycling thru, eventually getting back to everything.
Except NES. Christ, I can't score on that system. Really my "main" system, as far as becoming a "gamer"(I remember being "too young" for Atari, but others my Age were good, so I think I was just..."slow".), but it friggin hates me...

Just bought The Herculoids dvd set.
