Rejoining the hobby myself!
« on: January 28, 2016, 01:34:58 pm »
I thought - very briefly - about stealing Retro's thread, but decided to start my own on this topic.  For many years I was here as RTSDaddy2...don't know if pics of our cabinet are still here, but we finished it also about 2005 - 2006.  I hung out here for many a year, then stuff happened and I got too busy to stay current.  When I came back last week, apparently I'd been gone long enough that the system had forgotten my information.  My old email addresses weren't recognized, so I just started with a fresh account.

Retro gaming has been a godsend recently in that rediscovering the classics has allowed me to a) relieve stress and b) keep my mind off my problems for a while.

I was very excited while ago to see that Happ's page is going to start including the SlickStik tornado spinner as part of their inventory! Mine still works but nice to know where I can get replacement if I need to (I LIKE that spinner!)!

Glad to be back - missed being here!
