Frown: Remembering how bad the games based on it were. I wish that license could get another shot.


you obviously have no played the GB game, Flake. It's like Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle, except I think it's better.


I got Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey free from Pizza Hut with a ten dollar pizza during some sort of promotion. Best pizza ever.

Also, the Gameboy game really wasn't too bad, but I did always want something a bit more. The NES game made me mad when I was little cause I could never figure out what to do.

Small bit of trivia the original working title of Bogus Journey was "Bill & Ted Go To Hell." I wish they would have kept that title. It was awesome.

Ticked: Racket still under attack and no nibbles on the Brat.

Smile: All 4 of my long lost packages were safe in a postage locker. The mailman was on crack and accidentally put the locker key in with the packages instead of in my box.

Smiled - Multiple smiles today:
- New phone works and is slowly getting music for custom ringtones via bluetooth.
- Walmart brand low fat vanilla yogurt taste like McDonalds Parfaits (which they recently made jokingly small).
- Girlfriend had a good interview with a new company
- I have a nice loaf of garlic and parmesan bread next to me waiting to be eaten

Ticked - sore in the back of my mouth is killing me and making eating said bread difficult

Smile: Racketboy site isn't acting funky anymore and I got an SNES model 2 :mrgreen:

Ticked: The website I've been working on has been hijacked by the "consultants" who were "helping". They completely changed the background and the banner, as well as the layouts for most of the pages without asking or even informing me of this.

What's worse is that they got some of the code wrong and pages are ending prematurely and some of them are jumping around. The whole page is practically blue and the pointless polka-dots hurt my eyes. I'll get paid no matter what it looks like, but it's frustrating to watch weeks of work go *whoosh!* down the toilet in a matter of hours. :evil:

Smile:Watched last friday's Supernatural, Dean Winchester is fighting some dragon in human form and manages to cut him with a mystical sword. The guy says, "Where'd you get that sword?". Dean pauses for a second and then replies, "Comic Con"

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ticked:Reading through volume 7 of the Fables TPBs and find TWO security stickers stuck onto the pages inside the book. Last time I buy anything from Borders.

Ticked: Getting a voice mail at work from my wife saying that "she got ran over by a dumptruck" changing lanes on the highway and then he kept going.

Smile: Learning that the hit and run was not that severe. The truck nicked her passenger side mirror and she didn't even know it hit her until she tried to change lanes and the mirror was gone explaining why he didn't stop - neither of them noticed at first.

I know that a $50 mirror isn't funny... but when your wife is 4 months pregnant and leave a message that implied that her car was destroyed in a hit an run, you do smile when you hear the real story.

I don't know, I still don't think I'd be smiling. I'm glad she's ok.
