Finally, a milestone! Well actually it's not the biggest score out there, but to me, it was quite the accomplishment. This past weekend in Ludington, MI, I visited a pretty cool Retro-Arcade they just opened a little while ago named Quarter Cafe & Retrocade. This weekend, I finally made it onto the board of Top Scores!

I have this little App on my phone called Timehop. Basically it's another thing that is attached to my Facebook info that searches through my old post per day and see's what I posted that day years ago. This little picture popped up and brought me back 6 years ago!

There are a lot of games that are considered 'rare' or 'hard to find' out there. There is another game in my collection that I am also quite proud of. I found this one at a local shop here in Grand Rapids named Vidiots, and he had this game at a STEAL of a price. On eBay, this one fetches quite the price.

Oh man, College was a blast! I miss it everyday! The friends I made, the freedom I had, etc. It was my first official time that I moved away from everything in my hometown. I went to Eastern Michigan University. Regardless of all the bad press this place receives, I loved every minute I was there and I got the true college experience out of it, meaning that I lived in the dorms. 402 Buell Hall! Re

Summer Craft Beer Festival is this Saturday! We have over 100 different types of beers being sampled at the event, and chances of sampling them all are pretty slim. I decided to go sample one of the breweries that will be there in advance, and that brewery is White Flame Brewing Co. in Hudsonville!

Missed this weeks Metal Minute? Here is the recap!

Another day and another random pic! This time I was at a local grocery store just walking around in the aisle's and I couldn't help but notice the name of this wine. I am not much of a wine drinker, and my mind may have been in the gutter for this one, but the label sure caught my eye.

This photo isn't of me, but man does it make me laugh. It's of a friend of mine named John. John has a fantastic beard. Some time ago, he got pizza at some place with a photo of a knight looking guy eating a slice of pizza, whom also had a beard. Where do you think this is going?

I own two cats, so therefore I need to buy a lot of cat litter so they can crap in a certain spot in my apartment. Fortunately, my wife is usually the one that takes care of the cat litter (I do laundry). While shopping for cat litter, I saw this on the box. I couldn't think of anything more EXTREME!

I know what you are thinking, "Who cares, it's just an old video rental store." Not so much my good friend. This wasn't your typical video rental store...this was my first video rental store where I discovered a love that I have kept with me for over 20 years.

This year, I got the opportunity to host Carnival of Chaos. It was a blast! Quite some years back though, I only attended Carnival of Chaos. Just so happens that year, Mushroomhead was headlining one of the stages. This was also during the time that I blackened my hair, wore Tripp pants, etc.

I put together a Gaming Get Together last weekend. Sure, you can link a bunch of Xbox's together and play a large amount of FPS.' This night though, that wasn't what it was all about! We wanted to go classic! The biggest draw though, the use of Projection TV!
