The return of the 15 year old Mullet...


Went to St. Pats the other weekend back at school. Didn't see many folks from my era. But, I did snap this picture of me circa 1993/4. Wow, that's some bad hair! LOL Hmmm, I wonder why Jenny had no interest in going out with me back then?

Where the heck have I been?

I've been to Rome and back.

Here's me ordering a couple of veggie burgers at the Pompeii Burger King (this is not a joke... it's one of nearly 100 fast food joints found on the main streets of Pompeii.)
Here's me towering over the tiniest real care I've ever seen!Here's some of the fun they used to have at the brothel in Pompeii (kids, close your eyes!)

I've only got about another 400 or 500 pictures and a bunch of videos. So, you're lucky I'm sparing you. :)

In the basement, we've been progressing along fairly well. I put the Top Score on Free Play using Marvin3M's method for Gottlieb EM halfmoons. Works like a charm.

I've got all the games moved into place, and it feels good.

Made it to Lowes last weekend to finally give my daughter her castle. So, I've started framing in the walls in the corner. More pictures as it goes up. Should be fun.

And, tonight, we had a great walk in the neighborhood where William skipped and played drums on each electrical box and cable box... Then, came down stairs and played a few games of air hockey, pinball, and Green Beret. I beat Julia 9 to 8 in air hockey. She took it pretty well. I meant to let her win, but it didn't work that way. Oh well, she's doing well.

Then, Julia played Green Beret and William pretended to play Green Beret. Both of them were sitting on my lap. She scored 4700. Not bad. It was, for a daddy geek... awesome. Then, Julia played pinball on her own. Jenny had played pinball earlier.

It was a lot of fun, and a great family night.
