I sold my Air Hockey table. A fellow OKC collector came by and picked it up yesterday evening. Mason was a little upset that I'm getting rid of it, but he hasn't played it in a couple of years, and I really needed the space out in the arcade. So, now it's gone.

 

Speaking of the arcade, I've created a new area of the website dedicated to my arcade games. It's at robohara.com/arcade, and I'll be adding a link to it from the front page later today. There you will find a list of all my arcade games, what I'm working on, etc. You should check it out at least once.

 

Susan and I are still both dragging a bit after being sick this past weekend, but the stomach issues seem to have passed.

 

I took Dad Sunday night to see the Hornets play the Utah Jazz. We lost by 14, but it was still a good evening. It was Hugo's (our mascot) Birthday, so mascots from all across the league came and performed all night. Fun night, lots of entertainment.

 

Work continues on the Three Stooges videos. I have 50 or so dumped so far, which is over half of what I have and just over a fourth of all of them. There were 191 Three Stooges shorts in all; between the marathon and the ones I recorded last weekend on the PiVo, I think I'll have close to 2/3 of them when finished.

 

And speaking of PiVo ... it died temporarily yesterday. We had a power outage yesterday during the day and when I came home I could not get the computer to boot. I hate these new "soft" power supplies (and by "new" I mean, over the past ten years or so). I like the old ATX style, the ones that had a manual, physical switch. I could not get the machine to reboot until I unplugged the power cord and left it unplugged for 10 seconds. After that it rebooted, SpongeBob was watched, and there was much rejoicing.

Cool gameroom, although it seems a lot of the games need work.

 

Maybe I'll actually finish the cocktail MAME cabinet I started (mumble) years ago.

You're right about the repairs. I haven't had a lot of time to devote to the gameroom lately. This spring and summer I plan on getting everything back to 100%.
