  1. Contact tracing - How could they possibly know whether or not you have had contact with an infected person??  Are they omnipresent?

  2. Have people forgotten about board games, card games, making card houses or towers, setting up and knocking over dominoes, coloring books, simply drawing on plain paper, SpirographLincoln LogsTinkertoys, LEGO and so much more? If none of that interests you, how about ball in a cup?

      My board game collection is a huge boon right about now.

  3. My two year old is constantly climbing chairs, couches, stairs, people, counter-tops, heating units, you name it.  We have nicknamed her "Crazy Climber" after the Atari 2600 game :) 

  4. For everyone on here: Do not deal with @AtariGeezer. We built a #FujiNet board for him on the condition that we would share code. This turned into "I'll do it if" .. after he received the board.

    This guy is 100% mud, and should be considered untrustworthy.

      I'm not about to buy a new laptop, but I don't know that it would run 10

  7. Do all "high-end" collectors behave like the ones on expo in the "Extra Terrestrials Game FOUND! (5th copy)" thread?

      Damn it Tempest locked the thread while I was still on my first bag of popcorn!

  8. I always wanted an Encyclopedia Britannica set. Of course you can go on the internet and find your information for free, but I still like them. Anybody still own or even use their set anymore?

      You can get complete sets of the 15th edition for about $300

  10. Just picked up an Atari 800XL, 1010 data recorder, and some manuals for each at a flea market today. No cables though and the 800XL badge is missing. Now, to see if it works.

      Pretty cool, what did that run you? Always curious what these show up as in the wild

  11. Don't think this is floccinaucinihilipilification, but I have a severe case of pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.

  12. the 800xl works...although I'm going to have to open it up and look to look at the ram as it's not showing a full three lines of green squares (no red though).

  13. I'm a man with a one track mind, so much to do in one lifetime.

      The best way to get rid of bedbugs is to set fire to the house and walk away

  15. After attending my first convention this weekend I discovered what the "con crud" is. I wish I hadn't. >_<

      I was at GenCon last weekend with about 60000 other people, I'm really surprised I didn't get sick.

  16. Our Sears is closing. :( Maybe I'll get something good at the liquidation sale.

      They will jack all the prices up beforehand and then you will think you are getting a great deal when it's likely cheaper elsewhere

  17. Well this is a new one. I had an insultingly low offer on an item I had for sale on ebay with a note from the buyer saying that it was for a free computer museum. He basically wanted a donation.

  18. I see a lot of people shrink wrapping their ebay items lately. Does that work on anyone?

    1. orpheuswaking

      I shrink wrapped my balls once. The girl I was with didn't believe they were factory fresh either.
