Ever wonder why things just seem to take forever when dealing with anything government-related? Well, this may have something to do with it. In Rhode Island, a bunch of the government offices are still using typewriters and microfiche, despite that "tech" being roughly 35-40 years out of date...

Before there was the internet, we had to find out about new video games through either newspaper ads, magazines, and especially TV. Watching children's television in the 90's was always entertaining. Besides watching your cartoons, the real awesomeness started when the commercials came on.
