    So I am at work all day trying to focus on my job and things just keep turning up that turn my thoughts to pinball. I do auto body repair and the toners for the paint are all prefixed DMD so I naturally start thinking pinball. Then today I just noticed that printed on a box of plastic masking film it actually says pintables! which is paintable in another language apparently.
    I know a lot of us probably think about pinball at work, but I don't know if I stand a chance of not thinking about it. Anybody else have something at work that causes this?

    We have a Terminator 2 at work that BadBrick and I have adopted and take care of. We just shopped it out last week, including flipper rebuilds, rubbers, polish, waxing, and some more LEDs.

    There are about 1500 employees in our building and I see a steady stream of people playing. Working on getting a second machine. There is one guy who has a natural gift, if I remember correctly this machine is his first time playing pinball. His scores are pretty untouchable.

    I've met a lot of employees in other parts of the company through the machine, and it's been a really positive thing at work.

    I think about pinball everyday at work.

    No idea why. I just do.
