This weekend I went across Michigan and visited the beautiful St. Joesph and Benton Harbor area. My aunt and uncle live there and have for many years. This was the first time my wife and them have been around each other and it no been a family emergency. It was nice. We played a board game called Stop Thief. it is old than I am and tons of fun. Basically you and up to three others chase around a computer controlled invisible thief.

I got my replica Lancer back from my uncle. He made a gun rack for it. It is awesome and I will be posting pictures hopefully soon. He painted a couple pieces of wood black and then bloodied it all up and bolted an arm underneath where the gun mounts. It is slick.

He also gave me an Atari 2600 and 27 games. Sadly, no paddles or joysticks. I am on the hunt for some cheap controllers. This is a personal item I have wanted for many years. My uncle and late father used to play it all the time. Now with my dad gone, it is one more piece to hold on to him with. I don't care if this thing doesn't even work. The memories it brings back are priceless.

Anyway, I had an awesome weekend. Tons of fun all around.

The wife and I are back in Chicago. We are about to leave for Blue Man Group. It is so much fun here. I don't want to go back home Wednesday. Tomorrow is the boat tour of the book we read. That should be neat. For breakfast tomorrow, I am going to bacon my sausage. Thank you Simpsons for the awesome idea!

So finally the game is out. It is such a fun game. If you have a PS3 this is a game you should get. It is a candy coated cartoon murder simulator. up to 32 players online and voice chat. Great fun game.
