The one that notices it is blank will have to be quickly dealt with before alarm is raised with the others, but a handy bottle of chloroform should take care of that.

I should make a coffee table book of all the arcade pictures my daughter has drawn for me over the past year. My Father's Day card was a hand-drawn picture of she and I standing hand in hand next to a Donkey Kong machine.

Hottest tips on PacMan:
Eat all of the pellets.
When a ghost is on your ass, eat a power pellet, and eat the ghost.
If the fruit is appears while you are near it, eat the fruit. Don't take unnecessary risks to get the fruit.

I actually have that book... I remember reading it as a kid many times, then finding it last year at a book sale. When I set up my Mame cab, I hunted down all the games in that book that were emulated so I could finally play them after almost 30 years.

Random dudes? I wouldn't quite say that. Mostly klov dudes, and in particular Portland area dudes, but there are some byoac dudes too (I'm the SF Rush dude, Friz is the spy hunter dude, etc). Great book though.
