Put a fork in it, or, Sweating to the Oldies

I have two blog titles and I couldn't decide which one to use. So I used both. This morning it was working on sweating to the oldies by being in my hot room working on an old video game console game. Oranges for the Odyssey 2. I spent all morning trying to get the powerup in there. I guess I can't plan an Odyssey 2 game by where stuff goes, because it doesn't like working if certain things are wherever. Things have to be at just the right spot for it to work. So today I got the powerup in. It's a fork. It doesn't do anything right now except come at "random" times on a "random" y position. The reason why I have the words random in quotation marks is because it doesn't seem very random, but I am using the Random number thing, so it must be.
