    It's good!  It was so exciting back then to have a 2600 game that featured several different "screens" like that one did.

    I like kimchi too.  It really can enhance some dishes. 
    We've got a place near my home that does Korean sandwiches.  It's so simple, yet can be so good.  A fresh baguette with Korean pork and small topping of Kimchi.  So good.

    Travis Scott meal for me.  A treat that I don't get often.  2020 calls for splurge.

    I'm sorry to hear about your mom.  Perhaps there's something else going on.  It's such a difficult time for many with the pandemic causing so much change and havoc.  I wish you both the best. 
    YOU must decide how to spend that discount!  Namco Museum is good in any format, but it's up to you!

    I imagine he was picked on as a kid for being so tall, which caused him to turn to a-holery.

    It's not all bad news.  There are literally millions of consoles and games out there (both new and used) to buy and enjoy. 
    My favorite handheld is the good old DS-Lite, and I find games for that all the time.

    I did some research. That's an early example of a kart racing game loosely based on the album of the same name.

    George's game was called "Here Comes the Fun".  But there was legal trouble -- supposedly he stole it from Eric Clapton.

    I didn't know Paul made a Supersystem game! I have played Ringo's Channel F game "Richard Starkey's Dunk Tank Mania" before, and I think "John Lennon's Professional Raquetball" appeared posthumously on the Vectrex. I think George may have made a Casio Loopy game at some point in his career, though the title escapes me at the moment. Might have been a JRPG, I forget.
    What's the name of this game, Rick?

    I just made a nice donation to our local Red Cross.  I'm very happy to report that my work MATCHED it!  How cool is that?

    That's awesome. 
    In our house, it usually goes like this:  if the game uses one button, Dad dominates.  If 2 buttons, it's close.  If more than 2, the kids dominate. 
    My kids are no longer kids, but we'll probably settle on multi-player Mario Party DS later today. 
    We play a lot of Super Smash Bros three player, and I almost always lose first.  My only winning strategy is to avoid trouble, stay out of the way, let them duke it out, then try to take on a weakened survivor at the end.

    We play a lot of Atari together as it's quick and not too complex. Some favorites are One-on-One, Video Olympics, Outlaw, and Miniature Golf. We emulate a lot of games that I don't have physical carts for. Artillery Duel, Flag Capture, Home Run, Maze Craze, and Sky Diver are all great games we like to play on compilations and emulators.

    Guys, a good update.  Things are turning positive today.   The wind has died down, and the temperature is lower.  They are now saying the fires won't spread any further.  We'll have plenty of smoke still, but that's OK by me. 

    THANKS for the well wishes.  It does help!
