Quoted from timab2000:If you have to use a credit card or take out a loan to buy something as stupid as a pinball machine you should have your head examined
My Brain is always being examined! 
Just did it again today!
Quoted from o-din:No, I know for sure you and I are west and east coast bookend kings in that department. And Iceman and Who-Dey are somewhere in the middle.
It is nice to be in such great company though.

Quoted from o-din:They would have loved my dad then, sitting in his chair half drunk looking like Archie Bunker telling super politically incorrect jokes that I dare not repeat here. He was a riot and always the life of the party wherever he went.
Sounds like My Dad, he was also part Fred Flintstone when doing Projects!
Quoted from o-din:Thumbing through this old box of photos, I didn't even know I had one of my old '67 Bronco. Sold that thing 20 years ago.
Check out o-din in the mid 90s.

Time and Mortality....
This needs at least a few drinks to start!
Pinballs future???? The economy????
I feel we are in the peak decade...dont know
when it degrades...
OK, for a moment, lets just say we lose ACA.
The economic impact is Insurance companies will make more money with poorer plans,
or everyones corporate plans will soar 30% or more to start.
How does that affect us here? If your insurance soars, will you have money for Pins?
Im just pissed off.
I understand how and why healthy people would see it differently....But to make healthcare political is just awful.
Without sharing a truly "better plan", and i dont believe it exists, (other than insurance reg, tort reform, residency reform) dramatic cost of living changes will occur.
Enough to create a tipping point.
While the myriad of Doctors and Nurses in family and friends, they all hated the ACA, adjusted, and now are
very happy with it.
If this changes, they fear they go back to asking for your CC, before help is given, or internal "secret" care levels based
on customers pay, which of course creates villians out of the poor, often ethnically defined.
When these adjustments happened last to me in the Luxury Market of Jewelry, it killed the Industry.
Poor didnt need it...they dont need Pinball
Middle can no longer afford it, and it became something only for the wealthy.
I am seeing this especially this year in the diamond market, and no reason to not believe with rising pin prices,
we will see it too.
Will Tariffs and Economic conditions in the negative way move all NIB to $8K or $10K?
Thats a leap that would definitely mess with the hobby.
