| 2173 | Article | massreality | That is so cool. Like vkimo, I wish I had some friends to play something like that with. I'm so jealous | Mar 29, 2015 |  | |
| 2174 | Article | Hoju Koolander | A truly cinematic story. I imagined you being portrayed by a young Fred Savage, with Ariana Richarda taking on the Stacey role. Roberto would be played by Benny from The Sandlot with Jerry Mathers as "The Satanist". Good stuff. | Rec Center Memories - Moment of Glory | Mar 29, 2015 | |
| 2175 | Article | echidna64 | Yeah the good thing about being in a large family is that there is always someone to play with! @vkimo I looked up Weather Slam! Man that really encourages me to make my own game, hand drawings and all ;) | The Dragon Master | Mar 30, 2015 | |
| 2177 | Article | Vaporman87 | Such an awesome and epic read. I was reminded so much of the dogs of my youth. My first dog was named King, and though I don't recall what type he was, I do know he was about the size of a wiener dog and was black and brown. The next dog I owned was the most special to me. Suzie was a Norwegian Elk Hound. She had that characteristic curled up tail and long fur... grey and black in color. We had her from the time she was a puppy, until I was forced to move from the house I grew up in because of my mom and dad's divorce and her deciding to move to another town. She ended up at my cousin's house where I would occasionally visit her. I have video of one of those visits to remember her with. She was very special to me. I even wrote a song about her when I was young. LOL. I miss that dog. | The Dog Days of Childhood | Mar 30, 2015 | |
| 2178 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I agree with comic_book_fan, your room is worthy of an entire article. Robocop 2 poster, Batman and Magic Johnson plush dolls on the bed, a Troll doll with what looks like a rifle, Oreo bendy creature as wrll as a Robin sticker on the bookcase and is that a framed Ghostbusters logo? Did you get that as a prize at a fair or something? | Rec Center Memories - Chicken Fight | Mar 30, 2015 | |
| 2179 | Article | Vaporman87 | Oh yeah, also I loved the part of the story where you guys ran away from home! So typical for kids in those days. Running away... for like a couple of hours. Then realizing it's pretty much pointless and heading home to face the consequences. I thought maybe the whole thing was going to end up blowing over, and you would never have had to face it. Not so though. Lesson learned, anyway. | The Dog Days of Childhood | Mar 30, 2015 | |
| 2180 | Article | Ruespieler | Thanks vape for taking care of that issue so quickly! Anyway, I'm glad you mentioned that the piece took you back to your own childhood pets. That's exactly what I wanted, to transport the reader back into the TARDIS of their own imaginations, but in a positive way. To remember the times that were good, so to speak. It's why I didn't "Old Yeller" you. Yeah runnin' away, it's a great idea for about two hours. Learned right then and there that, even on the worst days, home ain't such a bad place to be. | The Dog Days of Childhood | Mar 30, 2015 | |
| 2181 | Article | massreality | I did. I won it on one of those frog smashing games. I actually wrote up an article once about the items in that picture. I'll see about porting it over here soon. | Rec Center Memories - Chicken Fight | Mar 30, 2015 | |
| 2182 | Article | vkimo | I've literally been reading this article like a novel since it was published this morning. And I'm kind of bummed now that I finished it, could of read more of your stories for weeks. "Picturing our times together through the fog of ages is now like seeing these occurrences through a rain blurred window. Colors fade. Details melt. But what does remain as clear as a Crystal Pepsi is the joy and love we shared." Now that's just great writing. I love the narrative and your detail. The maps made the read so much more engaging. I can't believe you and your buds walked that long of a distance. Hersh seems like such an awesome dog. I'd love to have a canine companion like that. Too bad he didn't leave one of those kids thumbless! Also, kudos to nailing the annoying mom, must have felt good. I wish I had half the gall you did, seems like the Five O knew you by name haha TU #8 I have a feeling this contest just turned into a race for 2nd place.. | The Dog Days of Childhood | Mar 31, 2015 | |
| 2186 | Article | Vaporman87 | No doubt about it, the early days of "Turtlemania" were the best. I thoroughly enjoyed both the cartoon series and the first live action film, though I've commented before that I thought it could have done a bit better with a little more star power and some deeper character exploration. Naturally I had some of the toys, but my brother was in their prime demographic (I was around 14 - 18) so naturally he had more. Even so, I enjoyed the turtle merchandise. One thing I will say for the newest animated incarnation... they have gone out of their way to pay homage to it's predecessor. Including all the old favorites like "fly" Baxter, Leatherhead, Metal Head, Rat King, and more. Once, while visiting Dimension X, the turtles look into a portal and see their 1980's cartoon counterparts walking down the street with April in her classic yellow jumpsuit. The original voice actors from that cartoon portray themselves once more at the end of that episode (in a little pre-credits nugget for the fans). They had several episodes that took place at April's relative's farm (with the house looking VERY MUCH like the one from the 1990 movie. In another recent episode, Casey Jones uses the classic line, "The class is Pain 101. You're instructor is Casey Jones." Then his opponent retorts with "Did you really just say that kid?" LOL. Good stuff. They've had voice talent come in like Corey Feldman doing "Slash" (he did Donatello's voice in the 1990 film) and of course, Rob Paulson doing Donatello. It's a nice way to introduce the turtles to a new generation while showing some love for those of us who grew up on the originals. | Turtles: The Teenage Mutant Kind | Apr 01, 2015 | |
