Your opinions, please.
I have an ebay auction running. Normally, I would not call attention to this, but this one confuses me. It's for a broken Gameboy. The ad clearly states that it's broken several times. Yet the price keeps going higher and I have almost 20 watchers!
Please take a look and let me know:
- Is it clear that it's broken?
- Am I missing something about why it's going so high?
Thanks!

We're still in a very bleak place in Oregon, as wildfires continue to spread. The sun is pink, and everything is grey outside. It's difficult to breathe with all the smoke in the air. At the moment, my area remains at "Level 1" of alertness with fires just a few miles to the south and east. My family is fine, and we have a few options of places to go if we are forced to evacuate.
The advice I gave my children is what I really believe. I told them that our bodies and our memories and knowledge are all we need. "Stuff" is unimportant. We will be fine.
I'm ending this status with a picture from a small town south of here. It's a complete loss for many, and our entire community is in shock. We will support each other as best we can. I plan on making a giant donation to our local Red Cross.
Thanks to all for your kind thoughts. I do appreciate it very much. I appreciate the few moments of normalcy and distraction from you all here in the forums.

Sorry to be a downer, but out here in Oregon, things are very bleak. Fires throughout the state are devastating lives and homes and entire communities. As I type this, the sky outside our home is an eerie orange. Fires loom only miles away. It's windy and dry and hot. I'm terrified. We are packing bags tonight in case the call comes to evacuate. I've lived here my whole life, and never experienced anything like this. Take care of yourselves, everybody.

Ebay has sent me a $25 discount (off a $25.01 or more purchase) for being a member since their beginning! Help me figure out what to buy.
I'm thinking about the following choices:
- An N64 or NES flashcart/everdrive
- One of the rarer 2600 carts that I don't have (Frankenstein's Monster, Gremlins, or ???)
- A 1200xl.
Help me find something good for a decent price!

I got one too!

Just so you guys don't think I'm dead (because of no posts lately) -- although I'm sure @MaximumRD would respectfully report on it if I was, there's a new project I've been working on. Restoration of a 2003 Subaru. It's got a water leak (which makes it smell bad), and needs some engine work. But I'm having FUN with it. My father was an auto mechanic. It feels good to get the hands dirty.
AND...I got a NEW JOB! I start next week. Should be lower stress. I hope.

After using off the rack clubs my whole life, I'm off to get fitted for my first set of golf clubs! 🏌️♂️
