Bleagh

Not much to write about, so this will probably be pretty short. I had a Trader Joe's energy drink today -- only 99 cents, which would be great, except it didn't taste good, was fully carbed so it would wreak havoc on my churlish figure, and it gave me a nasty headache. Other than that it was great. Luckily, Andy's Convenience near my work got a load of $1 Vault Zeros in on Friday so I can wash away the lo-cost nastiness.

As predicted, I didn't get any pin stuff done this weekend. Barely started a long term cleaning project. Nobody's bidding on my auction. They don't like me. :((( And I've got multiple chins.

I looked at the FSPA places to play pinball site and it said that
the LOTR game near my house was gone! I stopped in and confirmed. What a sad day. Frodo has gone into the west, and this time he took Sam and the whole Fellowship with him.

I was on
Darwin duty tonight while my wife and daughter went to Target. After he went to sleep (someone has to stay in the room or he wakes up and tries to find us), I stayed in the room and browsed on my wife's laptop. Found an rgp post with a link to pure pinball porn, a guy with step by step pix of unpacking his Stern Spider-man game. I had to change my pants at least twice.

Hey! IPDB has Spider-man listed as Spiderman, which is technically incorrect. Spider-man is the Marvel Comics super-hero, while Spiderman sounds like some old Jewish guy from New York. I immediately posted an update... we'll see how that goes. Sadly, the Gottlieb Amazing Spider-man is spelled correctly, and we know that consistency is the hallmark of a well-crafted database.

See? Short.
