Yes, it’s been a long time. Life has passed by in a blur since September. With the addition of Christien, beyond the day-to-day efforts to give him a head start, it’s hard to do and see much beyond the joys of daily life. So, 20 Words will pick up again as life gets just that… Read More »
1st off, I’ve got to laugh. I’m sure the new Brad Pitt extravaganza is an excellent movie and perhaps Academy Award worthy (which means blah to me).

Last Saturday I spent a VERY rare moment watching a bit of the hockey. There was a big hub-bub in both Montreal and T.O. around the retirement of 2 jersey numbers: 33 and 17 respectively. It’s funny, I was a HUGE fan back in the 80’s and into the early 90’s. Patrick Roy was a… Read More »
I found Dr. Mario on my Mame machine last night. I should start looking for other games some day. I may be surprised what I find. But with the little amount of spare time I have, it’s always Robotron 2084 for me! I’ve got to figure out how the pros complete all 255 screens. I… Read More »
