1527ArticlefuschniktGreatest NES game ever. I played it for the first time in a number of decades this Halloween. I realize more and more just how terrible I was at video games as a child. And yet I loved them so much. I finally defeated the game this year, only to find that, as a child, I had only every made it halfway through level two.  Nov 24, 2014View
1591ArticlefuschniktThanks, man. I truly appreciate that. I now realize, however, that I should not have "centered" those pictures. My next one should be absolutely flawless. Maybe. I, too, have been looking up the Santa thing this year. My daughter is now nine, and I wasn't sure if there was any type of protocol or anything. Best I could find was to simply let them figure it out at their own pace. I've decided to just go with that. Unless, of course, she makes it to her twenties writing letters to Santa and Looking for her elf on the shelf. Then I might clue her in.1990 - The Year Santa DiedDec 10, 2014View
1594ArticlefuschniktHa! Yes! Nailed it. Also, looking on the internet, not the phone device, I realize that "centering" the images was proper and correct. 1990 - The Year Santa DiedDec 10, 2014View
1596ArticlefuschniktThat's fantastic, letting him be a part of Santa for his brother. I absolutely love that. I've read that some people are actually worried about backlash along the lines of, "you lied to me and I hate you." But I find that fear to be silly. You got it right with him. We aren't lying, it's about creating something fun and special for our kids to enjoy. Well played, sir. 1990 - The Year Santa DiedDec 10, 2014View
1605ArticlefuschniktDang! Thankfully I already have a set. Finally got it about four years ago. Just shy of two decades after the story.1990 - The Year Santa DiedDec 11, 2014View
1864Articlefuschnikt@Vaporman - The moment I read that quote I was fully struggling to figure it out. I scanned my brain, and you are totally right, I went from sports movie to sports movie. The moment of the reveal it was like, "of course! Die Hard!" Seems so obvious now. I can even visualize the moment. @echidna64- That sounds about right. I have still never seen the movie, but I've seen clips and photos. I cannot even imagine what my parents thought while they previewed it. I should probably watch it sometime. Maybe I can pretend it's He-Man. @Hoju Koolander- Yup. Classic mom stuff. At least my mom. Movie MisunderstandingsJan 30, 2015View
1884Articlefuschnikt@Vapor Thanks! It means a lot! Truly! I'd love to see one of these Boglin videos someday. I'll see what I can do with the video. I'm not very technically astute. @Hoju I think my Boglin probably meet the same ultimate fate as yours. Fragile creatures in the hands off young children. As for the birthday question..I wish I could tell you. I know I had parties before. I've seen photos. But I was just turning four, so I'm sure calendars were meaningless to me. I still can't explain how nobody would have clued me in. Maybe they did and I was just to busy doing kid things to take heed? @Pika I never had any Ponies or Care Bears. I did have a Cabbage Patch though. For some time I carried him around just like Buddy in the commercials. He was my My Buddy. Surprise Party! : 1987Feb 04, 2015View
1885ArticlefuschniktI wasn't the oldest kid, but I did have a treehouse. Nothing that elaborate, though. I guess my brother could have been the older kid. Except he never really hung around us younger kids. On occasion, however, he did let us throw snaps at him while he ran around the yard.The Older KidFeb 04, 2015View
1894ArticlefuschniktThanks guys. I was unsure about posting this one. religion can be a weird subject for people. But I figured, if people are going to be posting about family stuff, this is my family stuff. So, why not? Besides, it also has a lot to do with the whole big brother/little brother dynamic. I actually teach Sunday school now. 2nd grade. Vaporman, you make some great points about children and religion. Having this story under my belt helps me a lot. Kids can take things very seriously. They see the world very differently than a grown up and think in different ways. Black and white, almost. As this story can attest, I fully believed that what I did was bad, and there was no coming back from it. In Sunday school I make sure that these kids know that there is a long life ahead of them. They may make mistakes, they may feel guilty about things or bad for doing things, but there is nothing you can't come back from. We take the opportunity to lay a foundation of the faith. We teach the stories and themes, the big picture stuff can come later when they are ready to really think about it, relate to it, and form their own real thoughts about it.

1967VideofuschniktSo true. I didn't go in for a lot of variants. Just undercover Don. I also had the Donatello from this line. I liked to make him pogo on his enemies. TMNT MutationsFeb 11, 2015View
