Inu to Hasami wa Tsukaiyou sounds totally nuts! But I love it. I think I am a little like the main character. I would totally have two apartments with one to hold all my books and then fall in love with my favorite author after my mind got put into a dog. Wait. Huh?
Each arcade was different in what it had. There were lots of games I never saw around my home town. Sky Shark was new to me when I found it at school.
I thought of that "too old, not cool enough" thing right after I posted the message. Oh well.
Ooo cool. I'm going to look into this. Thanks!
How about Lloyd Alexander's Chronicles of Prydain? I read the fourth book in the five book series this year, Taran Wanderer, and it was good, if beneath my present reading level. Wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chronicles_of_Prydain
River Horse beer yeah! The deli near my friends house, where I game, has a whole fridge full of unusual brews. I try something new each week usually just by picking an interesting label. This one was from a brewery in New Jersey and it was pretty good. http://riverhorse.com/
What an awesome thing to do. If I could go back to high school again I would go right for the nature science stuff. I wish I were doing that today.
A friend of mine was also deprived of TV by his parents. Now he's watching all sorts of stuff. Sometimes I'll watch with him and learn of some shows I now love like Party Down and Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Game & Watch was another thing I knew nothing about in the eighties. Funny, they were really popular.
The game is competent. There are no real problems with it and I think they did a good job with the history lessons. Thing is, some of these History Channel games are becoming rarer and they cost a little more than they should. This one was $15 at Gamestop, but it really should be $10 or under. Still, I think it was worth it.
