Very cool, hang on to that one tightly ;)

I bought a shirt like that from this place but the site is down.

Ebay is probably your best bet, I've seen quite a few different ones up there.
Had the full EVEL outfit going on this past Halloween...chick MAGNET...well...wife magnet anyway.

Whatever happens to happen always happens for the worst so if the worst is yet to happen I hope it happens to you first.

Delta, you are very observant. It is a HP Vectra 500mhz,good enough for a 3 year old to play with.

A few arcade cabinets, and your son has Ricky Schroeder's bedroom in 'Silver Spoons'.
