h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well, I had the original Atari in my apartment last year. Complete with Frogger, Centipede, Donkey Kong and yes... even Ms. Pac-Man.

Whaddya say to that, sugar daddy?

Which Atari do you mean? The 2600, the 5200, or the Atari computer?

I have a Commodore 64, an Atari 130XE, and an Amiga 500, but I have no more table space for them so they currently sit in my closet.

Ah yes, Frogger, Centipede, all those classics. They just don't make 'em like that anymore, do they?

Well, gosh, now I'm going to have to go and check out your home page.

The 2600...I think. It wasn't mine, but it resided in my apartment for a while.

I just thought I would do one-up-manship since my brother also owns Sony Playstation, Nintendo 64, a DVD player and surround sound digital TV...but was excited when I told him I had an Atari. But then, he is easily amused.

Thanks for visiting me. I like it when people don't mind me calling them sugar daddy.

Actually, I was going to ask about the "sugar daddy" remark, but I had already posted the message and forgot to add that in.

One-upmanship, eh? Right. Having spent most of my money on my entertainment system over the years, I have an interesting setup as well:

- Toshiba 4109X DVD Player (just got it last week. Joy!).
- Toshiba 50" rear projection TV (using component video from DVD)
- Harman Kardon AVR-75 Dolby Digital Receiver (using optical connection from DVD).
- Energy Speakers (5 sonically matched speakers with subwoofer - OK, these could be improved, especially the subwoofer).
- and my DVD count as of yesterday is at 157.

There. If your brother beats that, then I truly bow to him.

And you think my Aunt and Uncle have money to play with...you shouldn't be talking! No...I don't think he could beat that...he was military salary for the last four years and now he is on a firefighter's salary now.

I just like to say sugar daddy...it has a good feel off the tounge. A lot like Chili Pepper.

I like words that sound funny when you say them (like weevils, for example), and you like words that are pleasing to say. Isn't language fun?

Actually, I don't really have a lot of money to throw around. I just saved my pennies and bought everything slowly over the last four or five years.

I only *wish* I had a lot of money to throw around. Then I'd get one of those 65-inch widescreen TV's with progressive scan.

Hey, we're online at the same time. Kewlies.
