    I noticed someone posted the PacMan version a while back....I had this one and played it forever. It's actually still at my folks house and still works....perhaps I should retrieve it. I drove the old man nuts with with that thing with it's noise for hours on end
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    Wonder Woman! God how I loved that show! Lynda Carter is one of the most beautiful women to ever walk the earth. I would melt like a snowball in hell even if I met her today. Me thinks that show caused me to have my first naughty thoughts about the opposite sex :lol:

    Same here. I just gave this and countless other Star Wars stuff to my son to enjoy. I kept my toys in pristine condition and it's funny because my son has picked up that same trait. He takes great care in taking care of his toys.

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    We are the first that played video games, see cartoons in color and went to amusement parks.
    We were the last to record songs of the radio on cassettes and we are the pioneers of the walkman and chatrooms.
    We learned how to program the VCR before anyone else, play with the atari, nintendo, and believed that the internet would be a free world all on a 56kbit modem.
    We traveled in cars without seat belts or air-bags.
    We rode our bicycles down the road without brakes or helmets.
    We never had cell phones or pagers but still kept in touch.
    We did not have play stations, 99 television stations, flat screens, surround sounds, mp3s, ipods, computers, and broadband, but nevertheless we had a great time.


    I remember a time when I used to go out and do stuff...
    ... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...

    I LOVED 3-2-1 Contact!! AND Swatches. I remember I had 3 or 4 different ones and the thing was sometimes to twist up two different colors of the guards and put them on there, or switch guards with your friends who had different colored ones. :lol: The favorite one I had was a purple band and the face was like green and black and white blocks I think.
