Indeed. Leaking around the drains at the bottom of the sink? The pipes below that? The faucet? The feeds to the faucet?

Smile: Seeing the victory screen of Ultima II

Ticked off: The damn space landing mechanics in Ultima II. The GOG release configured it to run at 500 cycles. I had to ramp it down to 100 cycles to be able to land without dying from missing land.

Not sure about picking it up next. I think I'm going to switch to another RPG or two before coming back for III.

Smile: Wife is coming back from a beach trip today.

Frown: Waking up at 4am to clean the house. Who puts a plated piece of pizza under a sofa?

Super High Impact is pretty good too. And I've never played Stargate, but I'm at least interested in it.

Smile: The Cubs are on TV at 12:30 playing the Pirates, and I have peanuts, cracker jack, and a fridge full of beer.

Frown: Cubbies are 2-0 in this series and since I don't see a sweep, they'll probably lose.
