Games and Such

So it's only a big deal if you're me, but I finally moved the video game systems that I wanted to from the living room into my "Man Cave."

In total, I have 6: X-Box, Playstation 2, NES, Sega Genesis, Nintendo 64, and a modern reboot of an Atari, a small joystick with several Atari games saved within.

They were all taking up space in our living room, and I wanted them out of the way. It took the death of our DVD player/home theater amp - yes, I ignored my own devout belief in component systems for the ease of replacing parts - to change the setup of our home theater.

Now, everything except the X-Box is in my Man Cave.

No, I don't have a Wii, an X-Box 360, nor a Playstation 3, as I don't have the time, let alone the money, to dedicate to new systems. One day...

Run, Fatboy, Run

I ran the 2010 Seafair Torchlight Run, along with Katherine and  Paula, employee of Spy Comics, local purveyor of all things comic book.

My knee had recently been operated upon. Due likely to some shitty new work shoes, my right foot was in pain I can only describe in a string of profanities. I was fatter than the last Torchlight Run. I had to stop and walk a few times.

Nonetheless, I beat my previous time by 6 seconds.

What can I say? I rule. Period.
