Money knows no age, so back then they weren't so "aware" of everything. I love your two stories there, and yes, most likely a shady deal that went down in that run down old cinema. I have another story. I'll write that in a new thread.

We all remember fondly those arcade machines we grew up with in the 80s. It used to be the "Degenerates" hangout no#1. Every school skipper, low-grade, grease monkeys, motor-heads and nerds used to hang out here. Nerds like me were of course prone to become fresh meat for the gearheads and...

I almost read that as you having 597 arcade machines in your collection :D But that's not very likely, So Music videos it is. Nonetheless I absolutely LOVE arcade machines, in fact - I grew up with those, I had 3 of those in my bedroom as a kid. I used to hang out with the local arcade...

My condolences to you and your family. If it's any comfort, I can say that my Grandmother died at age 82, and my mother of age 60 (smoking). But my grandmother was like my mother and it was devastating when she passed, so I understand your feelings. But what I do to cope with it, is to imagine...

"If you know absolutely all the trivia about your cubbyhole of pop culture, it saves you from having to know anything about anything else. That's why it's excruciatingly boring to talk to such people: They're always asking you questions they know the answer to.” Quoted above from that Roger...

Congratulations on your new property dear fellow burbanite! I based my home purchase kinda like you did back in the days when I moved in, in fact I think I wrote a piece on it (and some observations on my neighbors quite some time ago in here as well). Maybe I could bring over my night scope...
