I apologize if I talk about this too much, but a video tribute was recently completed about my dad. This web-site tells about the video and has a link to it.

I think we are lucky we are retro-role players and not retro arcade gamers. Imagine being obsessed with Pacman for so many years:

A bit picture heavy, but if you go right to the bottom of this page - is this an Otherworld Demon Idol in the Angels & Demons game?

You are talking about the demon you can see in pictures 153 & 159? It sure looks like it. Good eye!

A couple of MIT students sent a balloon to 93,000 feet, with a camera, spending about $150.

How did the camera spend $150 while 93,000 feet up?

And what would a camera buy if it had wifi and a credit card?

The answer to that question is obvious, online porn!

At least it's all taking place in the OT thread!!!

BTW, nothing from BClarkie recently - I miss his inciteful presence.

I have a plan so cunning, you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel.

Ah, the small children are congregating next door. The children are 12 years old, tops. One of them has a boombox with some NSFW hip-hop and R&B songs. They keep replaying the parts that have "sh*t!" and "motherf*ckin'" and "birthday sex".

The music is awful, the lyrics are simplistic, and my brain hurts now.

It's really sad what happened to the teen murdered in Chicago.

http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local-be ... 80392.html

On the news, the mother of the slain teen asked, "What were they thinking?" I think "rap music" would be a good answer. Another good answer would be, "Don't snitch." Another goods answer would be, "Ooooo, I've got to pull up my pants." :roll:
