I like video games.
I'm a sucker for documentaries. So, right after I see King of Kong, I'm gonna' check out "Second Skin."
Because I'm weird.

It makes me ask the question; What has happened that they cannot find these things in the real world?

Is remaining anonomous the catch? I can't get caught if they don't know it's me. Or is it that they are accepted easier within that playzone? Or whatever you choose to call it.

Looks to be an interesting flic.; 4:40 PM

oldfart said...: Wow michael, maybe you have helped me to find what my ultimate problem is. I am not a very big guy so I may have a touch of "Little Man Syndrome". You know, like Jason Alexander on the video "Online" by Brad Paisley.

I think I might be getting closer to who I really am now. Thanks.; 10:02 AM
