  1. Awesome! Thanks for the old-school games site! I have an old TV game set that uses a cartridge (and still works very well!) and it has most of these old games still on it. Like Circus Charlie, Galaxian, Track and Field, Alley Cat, Mario Brothers, etc. :)

  2. I loved the 97 year old doctor’s list. I was just waiting for there to be a mention that having faith/praying/believing in god contributed to his longevity and was extremely pleased there wasn’t.

  4. Amanda-
    I’m sure if they asked him about it he would say religion is also important. When your day comes you’ll wish you would have believed.

  5. For many of my teenage years, my parents kept a box of a generic cereal called “Crispy Hexagons” on top of the fridge.

    To tell you the truth, I kind of hoped to see it on the breakfast cereal list.

    Amanda, Hareball-
    There is a time and a place for proselytizing, and on the internet it is rarely either. Keep it civil.
