Odin’s daily parody threads are getting weirder. They are like some Andy kaufmanesque performance art except somehow even less funny.
I’m sure there’s a point but I’m afraid he’ll self-exile again before tells us.
Don’t go Odin! You still have so much to give us!
Quoted from o-din:That's because last night I had a dream. I dreamed somehow I ended up in NYC and you were the only dude I knew so I looked you up. You had nice cozy place with some books on a shelf. Then we walked down the street to get pizza. Out of nowhere a monster truck comes burning down the street, does a quick turn, and stops.
That’s probably exactly what would happen.
Quoted from o-din:This is the one from the month I was born. And no I never owned one. That doesn't mean much to me since the time I owned a '62 Corvette. I didn't even buy it because of that, just that I liked the overall style the best.

I've owned my birthday game, Far Out.
Wasn't as satisfying as I expected.
Quoted from o-din:Indeed. But you were born at a far out time.
It was Out of sight man!
(and magical)
Quoted from o-din:I'd probably trade you straight up for your Wonderland if you still have the one you got from that old man. It's probably not the player Rocket is, but I've never had one and it sure is pretty.
It’s a keeper for me. Just sits not set up in the shop. One day I’ll have a house and then it can rise again.
It’s actually a very fun player. Has that super high power that Williams games as opposed to the limp gottlieb. Only one gobble hole, fun layout.
I really don’t think there’s a better looking woodrail either. George molentin is way
Underrated.
Quoted from o-din:What I haven't figured out yet is when they stopped using impulse flippers and started using those powerful double wound 50 volt coils. I'm guessing Wonderland made the switch. Possibly happened in '53 or '54?
This Rocket plays fast because of the layout as well. You need to pick a new Rocket, you gotta bank it back to the top.
1955 they moved to the hi power individual control flippers.
