I am some what new also. I have met nothing but really nice and helpful people so far. Some have a weird sense of humor but so do I.

(O.K. I am one of the weirdest I have come across but, this is only because of the Gov. implant in my brain.) Of course with out it I wouldn't be able to change channels on my TV by licking my shoe. Oh god! I have said too much.

Post by: Fat_Trucker on June 12, 2005, 09:27:19 am: Hi pj.

Welcome to one of the friendliest communities on the web. As other people have said, it is all a little bit bonkers, but if you like arcade games and cabs you have just found your second home.
Title: Re: New member
Post by: pj_elia on June 14, 2005, 10:55:41 am: Thanks to all.

Amerish,

Thanks for the offer. There is so many different options, I'm not sure where to begin with my home arcade system. I'm sitting back and learning before I make my move. I will certainly have questions and issues once I start building.

Actually, it was a mistake by one one Luthor's henchmen, Otis.

Here's the story -
However, Superman escapes with the help of Luthor's girlfriend, Eve Teschmacher, who makes him promise to first stop the missile mistakenly directed to Hackensack, New Jersey, by the bumbling of Luthor's henchman, Otis. Superman fulfills his promise, steering the Hackensack missile off course into the sky, but then sees the nuclear explosion from the California missile, causing a severe earthquake.
