Title: Free Area 51/Lethal Enforcers Cab In Chicago
Post by: SirPeale on April 30, 2003, 07:51:36 am
not mine.  I just don't want this thing to go to waste.  

From the newsgroup alt.games.mame:

"Free Area 51/Lethal Enforcers cab in West Chicago. This was a LE converted to Area 51. No guns, No board, No monitor. mirror is still there, coin door, and front glass.

First one here gets it. It is sitting outside, so you may want to come soon.

Email me to arrange pickup time/ directions."


And his address is joe.bachmann@newmail.net

Do those dedicated gun cabinets even have control panels on them?

Okay, okay let's think of an adult way to settle this...

What distro are you running... no that won't work...

(I run OpenLinux a manly distro; none of that sissy (but convienient) Mandrake BS)

How about this... we have a tournement of Super Puzzle Fighter 2 X (Japan 960531) Do you accept my challange? If you want to puzzle fight like a man you better get your Kaillera client up and running by this time tommarow (or you know, whenever is good for you)

JK (I really do love Super Puzzle Fighter though! I have it on DC, MAME, and GBA! What a GREAT game)

I'll change mine when I come accross something I want to change it to.

And it if you really do want to puzzle fight for the title... I'm warning you I haven't lost a match in about a year (I play quite often, sometimes daily)

It's funny, really...I'm not much of a gamer.  Sure, I've got my favorites (Galaga, Side Arms) but I just love building the cabinets.  Playing is a side effect.   ;)

Slackware? Not much of gamer? I must respect your strange and forighn ways.
Maybe I have much much to learn from you.

Yeah I told himm to get it covered up, Idon't know if he did; maybe I was a little rude, sounding slightly more like an armed rober?

Oops, I'll keep you filled in.
 I am getting it tonight

I picked the cabinet up for you so that it wouldn't get wet.  It was really pretty easy:

"Hi, I'm Anthony, I'm here for my free cab."

You can pick it up at my house:

123 ImKeepingYourCab Drive
Downers Grove, IL 60516

Hmm... I don't know quite what to make of this... (let's examine the possibility's)

1. Joke: harmless, yet no indication to be that.
2. Being an @ss: I would rather someone got it before the rain, but there would be a polite way to tell me. I don't think anyone with 100+ posts would do this! Plus how would you know where it is, plus I think the guy would tell me! If not, dude that's low. (also the dude e-Mailed me like 3 hours ago)


Hmm... In any case, I don't think it will fit in my truck  >:( so I don't care all that much.

Holy smokes, 100 posts?  Of course I was joking.  I wouldn't have told you if I went to pick it up.

I was bummed when you got the the cab first though.  Are you saying that you aren't getting it?  I assumed that this was a done deal for you.  Let me know if you decide you don't want it, I'll call the guy.

Good! I was flashing back to losing my girlfriend Courtney (okay, so that was worse). Even though I didn't really love her, she was so beutiful, like this cab!
JK I'm not relateing one of my girlfriends to a cab!

It's actually a Police Trainer.. Yes the sideart is there...

Dimensions are:
36x29x72 (quite thankfuly NOT the dimmensions of Courtney!)

Come and get it as soon as you can...

It wouldn't fit in my truck >:(

Here's his phone number 630-231-1235

I'll tell him I can't get it and someone else will be getting it (or you could pretend you are me)

I hope you two have a happy life together :'(

Holy crap! what make/model is your truck?

(I ask because when it comes to vids, you *make* them fit...I fit a balley/sente sac-1 deluxe cab (weighs more than a d.o.tron) in my ford escort station wagon.. it took my 3 hours, but I made it fit..:-)

it was the most frustrating thing i've done with that car..and the drive home felt like I was in a jetski/waverunner in heavy surf..:-)

Try using that phrase at work:
"Holy cow, that box weighs more than a D.O.Tron!"

It is a Dodge Durango. It would fit in any dimension but that 72 (Which is the exact semension of it's bed, but at the top beause of the slanted trunk It wouldn't fit. :-\
