| 1151 | Article | vkimo | I really dig the custom art! Being stuffed in a Rabbit for any length of time is admirable. I remember one time we planned this vacation to Sacramento, about 3 hours away. It was a sweltering day. My parents had 3 cars at the time, all junkers. First we took the 88 Cutlass and were driving about 2 hours before it started to overheat. I remember my dad throwing his cigarette out the window and turning back. Then we got into the Buick and made it a little farther but it too started to overheat. We finally gave up and went home. On the way back the cigarette my dad threw out caused a small fire on the side of the highway and we saw firetrucks scrambling. That was about it. | Jun 16, 2014 |  | |
| 1124 | Article | Vaporman87 | I will admit, I could not wait until you had finished this piece to read some of it, so I used my webmaster mojo to dig it up and read some of it while in draft form. LOL. Pardon my impatience. Such a great article. And a fun and poignant reflection of what summer was like in the vkimo house. From the bbq on the grill, to the chlorine filled pools... I can almost smell the memories. This cracked me up every time: "Ah yes, I remember this themed BBQ. Wear your girlfriend's shorts". I also never went to any summer camp. However, as I have previously mentioned elsewhere, I did attend two summers worth of college preparatory programs on the campus of OU. Those are summers I'll never forget. It was a taste of the freedom of college come years early. And I made friendships that, though they did not last, will be forever etched within my mind. Thanks for this vkimo! | In The Summer Time | Jun 06, 2014 | |
| 1125 | Article | echidna64 | Great article vkimo! I love your graphical prowess, especially the title card. My favorite part was your experiences camping, it brought back a lot of childhood memories. We used to go to a campground called Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park. And I loved the "your girlfriend's shorts" line too! lol Thanks for the trip back in time! | In The Summer Time | Jun 06, 2014 | |
| 1128 | Article | Fulton4V | We used to have wild water soaker wars in my neighbourhood. And also we would set up parts of our yards as bases and we would say that you were safe if you reached a base and could not be sprayed. We would do that for many hours. | In The Summer Time | Jun 10, 2014 | |
| 1129 | Article | vkimo | My whole issue with water gun fights is that at a certain point you're soaked and the game seems to loose it's appeal quickly. Unless like us you shot at grown ups haha. | In The Summer Time | Jun 11, 2014 | |
| 1153 | Article | vkimo | You said it. They're not even by Larami anymore. I have one from 1990 and it still works like a charm. | In The Summer Time | Jun 16, 2014 | |
| 1150 | Article | shakin steak | Oh man. I'm looking for Super Soakers on eBay now. The new ones are ugly! | In The Summer Time | Jun 16, 2014 | |
| 1115 | Article | Vaporman87 | YES! This story has made my day. What a great read. That had to be just an amazing feeling. And something that would stick with you... that if you always try your hardest, you can't lose... even when you do. Even to place 4th would have been a real challenge, especially for a short guy like myself (I was very close to being the shortest kid in school for a few years). So this is an inspiring story with an awesome ending. But I simply can't see how there is any bigger fan of Sonic than my 6 year old son at the moment. He is nuts for Sonic. I just purchased him a Nendoroid Sonic figure from China that has tons of accessories for changing faces, hands, etc. and he is flipping out that it's coming. LOL. Thanks echidna!!! | The Best Day Ever | Jun 03, 2014 | |
| 1116 | Article | echidna64 | Thanks Vaporman, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I just googled the Nendoroid Sonic toys and they look awesome, your son is gonna have a blast! Sonic the Hedgehog is one of my favorite games of all time and even my moniker refers to Knuckles the Echidna. When I have kids of my own someday, I want to build a MAME machine so they can experience classic gaming like I did growing up. Thanks again for your kind words! | The Best Day Ever | Jun 03, 2014 | |
| 1117 | Article | Vaporman87 | I figured your moniker was referring to Knuckles. Speaking of whom, he appears to have beefed up for Sonic Boom. I was trying to recall my summer of '95. I can only recall the major things... Beginning my time in the workforce, living alone for the first time in my own apartment, and very large phone bills for my online use. I had met a girl from Washington (state) and was corresponding with her via AOL chat rooms. Eventually she came to Ohio for a week to visit, and in February of '96, I visited her. That, of course, led nowhere (as did a few other online hookups). But I met my wife online some years later, so I could say that was just practice for the real deal.
