We had the Atari 2600.  We never upgraded to the 5200 or the 7800.

One time we hooked it up to a portable emergency TV - Black & white with a 5" screen.  Nothing like Combat under those conditions!
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Original Stratego FTW.  The Marshall is 1, the General is 2, Colonels are 3. 

I don't know why they changed it, but my guess would be that people were too stupid to realize that a lower number can be a higher rank, so they switched them around.  The pieces have changed over the years, and I'm okay with that, but I still get screwed up when I play with a newer set with the numbers all "backwards".

What?  You mean they renumbered the pieces?  Heresy I say, heresy!!

I hear the new Stratego pieces can now send text messages to each other to alert themselves of impending doom. :tick2:

Just in case this was a serious response (unlike the two follow-ups, which were funny, but... you know), yes.  We got Stratego for my son a few years ago, and we played a few games.  I should've been able to adapt, but it just kept screwing with me.  The Marshall is now 9, General is 8, etc.

Oh yeah?  Well I'm in a band whose lead singer/guitarist was born the year I graduated from high school.  Also, the violinist is 19 so I'm as old as the two of them added together!

But it's cool.  She's totally smoking and stands about six feet in front of me and to the left.  I basically get to check her out the entire gig, and she can't even see me.  I'm such a fucking lech.

Threw my back out shoveling last week (Thursday) went to the gym for my session with the trainer today, mentioned to him what happened and that I'm still sore/stiff. HE turned to me and without blinking an eye says " Okay I guess we should work on strengthening the back  today so it doesn't happened again"  I looked at him like WTF, I was warning you so I didn't have to do any back exercises today you Idiot....Needless to say, it took me about 20 minutes to get out of my car and up the stairs on all fours to write this.

Having been laid up with a cold for a while, I started watching Soap from the beginning on Saturday.  I've now blown through the first season and a half.  Great show that nobody but us fogies would remember.  Anytime any 5 or more of them are in the same room, it's guaranteed hilarity; fantastic ensemble cast.  Benson and Bob are the two real standouts; always hysterical.  And though not a principal character, E. Ronald Mallu was a hoot as well. 

As a kid, this was the first show that I ever watched religiously.  Great stuff.
Argument, the presentation of reasonable views, never makes headway against conviction, and conviction takes no part in argument because it knows.
