"I installed a trackball on Phil Collins."

This has been haunting me for months. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!?

Yeah. Me too. I couldn't get up the nerve to ask. Or maybe I'm just afraid of the answer.

I once had a dream that I beat up Billy Joel with a sock full of quarters outside of a Billy Joel theme park where the rides are themed and named after his songs, but installing a trackball on Phil Collins is just too bizarre to think about.

Funny you should mention that, but in the end of my fight with Billy Joel, after he was on the ground and beaten, I grabbed him by the ankles, spun him around and around, and tossed him into a shrubbery. This was the most vivid fight dream I had ever had.

I always assumed it was intentionally 'off the wall' in order to cause people to say "WTF?" The fact that he hasn't jumped in yet with some inside story as to what it means is bolstering that opinion.

Seems obvious to me. I've often thought that Phil Collins would be more user friendly if he came with a trackball.

Do I feel a Phil Collins song lyric quote competition coming on?

Here's one that always bothers be: "Oh, think twice, it's just another day for you and me in paradise... it's just another day for you, you and me in paradise"

Phil Collins head is a TRACKBALL. I mean damn look at the thing. But I got money that Paige could install a trackball on Phil Collins head. Dudes got mad skills.

" I want to know, can you show me.... put this trackball in the center of my head?"

It's actually a reference to an old Genesis song that mentions a kid playing Missile Command (or was it Millipede?).

It used to disturb me quite a bit, just because I hated seeing Phil Colins face. P.O. posts quite a bit, so I always went yuuuuck. Now, when I see it, I think of it as P.O., so it doesn't disgust me.

Phil Collins sucks. Bring back the anime cat!

Dammit, I'm sure he's read this thread by now, and he's not posting in it on purpose.

I'm certain you're right. Mission accomplished most likely.

If he has a trackball does that mean he has a groovy kind of optipac?

I always thought it was suggestive to the fact that people have gone overboard with MAME and the facet of retrofitting equipment to damn near anything.

But he's the guy that has 20" monitors hanging halfway out the back of old beat up video poker machines. Kinda hypocrytical if that's the case isn't it?

He's a great fountain of knowledge and an asset to the community but his cabinets aren't exactly glowing beacons of quality.

yeah, but that picture is SOOOO creepy. I live in St. Louis not too far from Paige, and I've actually thought about finding him, driving to his house and punching him in the face. At that point if he fell down, I'd yell "UNINSTALL THE TRACKBALL FROM PHIL COLLINS AND FIND ANOTHER PIC!", but if he didn't fall down, I'd just run away like a squirl.
