Ups and downs

[Vance]

Downs: I'm about $2,500 short on rent for the store.

Ups: I scored an interview with Uwe Boll, who might also do a Q&A panel in my store in November. I rescued a hot chick from an elevator.

In short, it's the best week ever. Except for the rent thing.

I was on the Isle of Man this week. A small island in the Irish sea. The Isle of Man has it's own flag. On that flag there are three legs. I think I know why!

(Battle banjos is nearly always on the radio there!)

Is the hot chick still *around*?

Hot chicks tend to get kicked out of the Magically Mauve Palace after about three days.

Oh, we got a few arcade machines in the store. One of them is a thoroughly bootleg 100-in-1 SNK cabinet that has such imaginary rom hacks like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2003 (palette swap of KoF 2001) and King of Fighters 2004 Special Edition Plus, which is another palette swap with horrible background paintings and one stage that has nudity in the background, including some pixelly animated gif of a flasher that I'm pretty sure I saw in 1997.
