Hi and thanks for the add! I've actually heard of your book, but haven't bought it yet. I'll check it out very soon though, promise! There's just something about classic arcade games that will always hold a special place in my heart. The bright colorful sprites, the spacy sound effects, the bizarre concepts, and the flashy attract modes.

And thanks for the compliment on default pic! I'm a big fan of Pac-man and the DeLorean, so I had a little fun putting the two together. :) I also made a "Raiders" version...

*sigh* Why is it Journey managed to pilfer a share of the classic video game market? Oh who are we kidding, Journey is badass and I'm still haunted with images of a poorly digitized Steve Perry navigating the treacherous sea of color cycling columns for some reason.
Still beats Crueball :)

Again with the excellent music...will you never tire of showing off? Seriously.

Also, that Space Paranoid guy sent me the coolest vid I've had in months. No shock that a friend of Van's 'get's it'.

Who has better taste in music than Van?

No one : )

Seriously, every time I stop by here I think 'This time I'll have a better song than Van!'...hasn't happened yet.

I'm off to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area for a little fall camping. Overnight lows are expected to be in the 20's. If I don't make it back, I'm leaving you my copy of Gary Numan's 'Replicas'.


Klaatu Barrata Nikto,
Brian
