Great read, Jim...

I too, am a bit older than most on this forum, but as a fellow 'sim gamer' and Nat's 'chiser, I applaud your point that than gaming is no different from any other hobby...

I always refer to it as "my golf"...

Still not sure why more of our contemporaries haven't picked up on gaming...but I'll bet a few more will as a result of your interview...

That was an outstanding read. Makes you realize OS is a special place because of the community here. We are pretty lucky.

I believe because they think "game console" and it must be kid stuff, cartoony arcade stuff. If they knew how good some of these sports titles were they'd get involved for sure.

I won't lie. I thought you were in your 40's (early 40's). May the Lord bless you with several more years of fun-filled gaming.

Just now stumbled upon this thread...unbelievably cool. Way to go Jimbo!!!

I just had a thought, since you autographed your book that you sent to me, and you are adding to that fame of yours and all, I wonder how much I could get on Ebay for your autograph?

$0.38 cents and a stick of bubble gum (chewed)?

Bubble gum? Heck, I'll bid on it then.

Man, I love the bubble gum they gave you. Even the cards smelt like the powder they used. Topps had the best gum!

Hey guys, my dad has some old unopened baseball card packs with some bubble gum in it. Tell me if you're interested, just don't sue me if you get sick or break a tooth because of it. I was wondering what the gum would be like last year, so I was decided to try some of that gum(yeah...great idea) am I'm pretty sure it did chip a small part of my tooth off. That was the last time I will ever get that curious about how 50 year old gum tastes.

Sort of like chewing aluminum, huh?
