  1. LMAO imagine having to put the word "Vision" in your console in hopes people can see how good it is.

      That's just to show that it's not for blind people.

  2. True Stratovox story: Years ago at our local bowling alley, they had a break in where a guy was found in the ceiling. Anyway, they had a Stratovox video game by the door of the entry way to the bar and it was ladys league night. The tables were away from the game where there were some women seated. No was playing the game but it was in a demo mode where you could hear "HELP ME, HELP ME!" One lady could hear it but she wasn't able to pinpoint where it was coming from, and being that talking video games were new, she went over to Terry at the service desk and told him she thinks there's a guy still stuck in the ceiling because she can hear him saying help me. Terry knew it was the game talking and he didn't tell her that. He said ok, and just stayed behind the counter. The whole evening the lady kept giving Terry a stare waiting for him to do something! He just stood there chuckling to himself!

  3. Pringles to me seems kind of blah these days.  But their Wavy Sweet & Spicy BBQ chips are a pleasant surprise!

  4. It saddens me that any pair of shoes I buy last around a half year or less.  Toe comes apart, sides split, heel wears out, etc.

      @BydoEmpire I have very flat and wide feet.  Finding the right shoes is difficult, and my feet are tough on them.  Plus I have to do a lot of fast walking at work.  I've tried several different brands and they all get worn out quickly in one way or another.

      Kind of feels like Terry Kath got inspiration for this song just by walking around and bumping into various people on the street.

  8. I just watched online video of the infamous accident that killed Vic Morrow and the 2 child actors during the filming of Twilight Zone: the Movie.  I will NOT post it here as I found it horrifying.  Anyone wanting to see said video:  please do so at your own risk!  It is NOT pretty to watch!!

  9. "I'm not talking bout the linen, and I don't wanna change your lights.."

  10. How did it take this long to discover "Mike Tyson Mysteries"?

  11. Today:  I went in for a cough, Ended up in the ER! Also had my first ambulance ride.  I'm fine, BTW.  It's just (well just a pneumonia, but I've had worse ;)  While talking to the doc he took my heart rate twice then they gave me an EKG,  Then he said, He had no idea how I was functioning, that I should be passed out, and I needed to go to the ER immediately, and he wouldn't let me drive...

  12. I'd never really been a spaghetti guy.  Recently might have been the first time I made it myself.  But with meatballs and doctored up sauce.. om nom nom!

  13. I'm always thinking it's "Carmelo" when I see the name of the boxer Canelo.

      Bought one last night.  Arrives in 2-3 weeks.  Hand washing in the meantime can be such a pain.  Thanks for the advice!

      @fdurso224 Thanks Anthony!  Looked around and found something nearby-- still more than I was willing to part with-- but it looks like it does the job, got good reviews and is available currently.  I was hoping for $500 or less but I guess not in this economy.  $679 seems like the best I can do right now.

      @fdurso224 Still expensive-- one was cheap but it's built-in.  How much does it cost to get them to put wheels on?

  21. Wow, all SB Nation sites are down since this morning.  Wonder what happened?

  22. Ten cartoons I'd like to see re-animated:

    10. Inspector Gadget

    9. The Real Ghostbusters' first 78 episodes.

    8. Anything Jay Ward and Bill Scott did in the '50s and '60s.

    7. Johnny Quest

    6. Earthworm Jim

      Definitely D&D!  I hated Uni in the show.  Instead of the bleating, I'd like to see her communicate with telepathy or something.  I'm having a hard time seeing how they could make Venger more of a bad-ass than he originally was.

  23. I can't seem to get any Odyssey 2 emulator to work.  Is there a good one for those with little patience?

      @Kiwi I got the bios.  The default path was weird, so I went into settings and got it straightened out.  Now it works; I just can't find the default fire button.

      @littaum Nope.  If you have experience with that one, I may need a tutorial of some sort.  If I get an emulator I prefer to just be able to click on the exe and get started easy peasy.  It's a bit too antiquated for my liking; If you are familiar with it and can give me some pointers I would sure appreciate it!
