    Dang.  I hope you all feel better soon with no long-term effects.  Prayers.  We'll be thinking of you and your family from 180 miles south.

    I'm sorry to hear this @socrates63. Hopefully you get to feeling better soon!
    On the bright side, there should be enough Trek to get you through recovery. 🖖

    Listen, bud.  I'm telling you straight away.  You did something amazing.  Putting yourself out there is not easy.  Many don't.  And they regret it.  You feel bad today, and that's perfectly normal.  But keep on going.  Keep your eyes open.  Make friends with as many people as you can.  Be you.  Keep growing and learning.  Trust me, that special person just for you will come along.

    Friend zone is a lot better than the No Friend Zone 😉 And as Rick said, you have time. She now knows you have a heart for her, and she will be watching you. So keep on hanging out with her and having fun.

    RickR got a reaction from Marco1019 in The Kung Fu cart for Commodore 64 arrived this week, and it works really nicely. This   
    Notes so far after playing with it for a few days.
    CRT/PRG files work fine and load FAST. D64 support is spotty.  Some work, some don't.  I expect firmware updates will address some issues The "reset" and "menu" buttons are really super nice.  Great features. Overall, huge thumbs up for this product.  I'm so happy to have it.  SD2EIC is nice, but a lot more difficult to use.  I prefer this by a factor of 100.  Just because it's so much easier to use.

    I remember the old lays of the local BBS's.  I met several people from the local Atari community that way, and ended up having quite a bit of fun.  Going to movies as a group, that type of thing. 
    The thing I miss the most:  the cool ATASCII pictures and animations!
