    Quoted from pinmister:

    Eat some El Farolito for me, I have been craving it.

    I'd be down for that.

    Quoted from rotordave:

    Back in the city of Angels.

    As long as you didn't roll into town singing that Journey song, we're good!

    #319 6 years ago

    That was like what 29 minutes ago?

    #322 6 years ago

    It was a little chilly wasn't it?

    Thanks for stopping by everybody! Keeps the old machines from getting arthritis when they get played like that.

    #326 6 years ago

    Sometimes, but rarely, even the Jack isn't enough to keep me warm.

    #328 6 years ago
    Quoted from rotordave:

    Awesome game ... well worth shipping 1/2 way across the country.
    rd

    No doubt! We do do some crazy things in this hobby. Many of those old games got shipped in. They just don't regularly show up around here otherwise.

    #330 6 years ago

    If it had only gone down to 65 last night that would have been Speedo weather.

    #373 6 years ago
    Quoted from rotordave:

    We drove past the San Onefre Nuclear planet, which looks suspiciously like two giant Pinbot boobs.

    We call it the Dolly Parton monument.

    #376 6 years ago

    San Onofre, where the water is warm.....and the fish have three eyes.

    #379 6 years ago

    You should be happy you even have power out there on Catalina.

    What a life!

    Quoted from pinmister:

    Found this deal for a Bowling Alley/Pizza Parlor with arcade for $425,000 while surfing CL. In Colorado or California-this would be a steal of a deal. Too bad it is in the middle of BFE.

    Back around 1970, my friend's parents sold their ocean front Newport Beach bungalow so they could buy a bowling alley that was for sale in Needles.

    In the end they ended up with a pool table and pinball machine from that bowling alley in their living room for all their efforts. lol.

    #420 6 years ago

    I could sell my house and live in that place. Ultimate man cave with good fishing and snowboarding nearby.

    It would be like my own private Idaho.

    #422 6 years ago

    I did play it and I think it was a King Kool, but it didn't seem very cool even then.

    #428 6 years ago
    Quoted from poppapin:

    Hey, if the bowling alley doesn't work out you can grow Idaho potatoes!!

    That's how I'm gonna pay the electric bill.

    #431 6 years ago

    I'd be willing to take the good with the bad. At least I'd be close to an old friend.

    Quoted from rotordave:

    INDISC Woman’s Champion 2018!

    I called that last week!

    Congrats!

    #456 6 years ago
    Quoted from rotordave:

    Danni also won a Captains Auction voucher for $300 ... no expiry date on it.

    Donations to “the boss” accepted.

    I made my offer, but I'm thinking I got denied!

    #458 6 years ago
    Quoted from rotordave:

    What’s not to like?

    It's kinda far is my only gripe.

    #460 6 years ago

    It's BFE and nobody in their right mind wants to live there. Or commute there for work. And where there's no water, there's no money. But yeah, lovely investment opportunity. You'd be better off with that bowling alley in Idaho I think.

    #462 6 years ago

    Kinda far was kinda a joke when you travel half way around the world to visit the place and I'm just too lazy to get on the freeway.

    #464 6 years ago
    Quoted from rotordave:

    Unfortunately “all the Modelos you can drink” didn’t do it for Danni haha!

    See what she would want then. I've got a fridge full of Mexican cokes if that might do it. I could probably rob some of my daughter's collection of stuffed animals if that would help.

    #467 6 years ago

    No wonder they are paying so much for electricity in south county now.

    #469 6 years ago
    Quoted from Whysnow:

    Does it happen every year?

    Me too lazy to get on the freeway? More like every day!

    #473 6 years ago

    Nice work if you can get it.......^^^^^

    #477 6 years ago
    Quoted from xsvtoys:

    The reasons the beaches look that way right now is because "it is cold"

    When I was too cheap to buy a wetsuit, I'd go out there in my trunks only this time of year. The key is to ease yourself into the water slowly, especially when the water is passing your mid section.

    #479 6 years ago

    Thank goodness they invented the wetsuit is all I can say. Trunks are for July- September.

    #481 6 years ago

    San Diego is the self proclaimed "World's finest city".

    Whenever down there I always liked to eat at Anthony's and get a fine seafood dinner. Haven't eaten there in a long time though.

    #484 6 years ago
    Quoted from MrBally:

    Yep, the original Seafood Grotto. Whale shaped building and all. Been thete several times. Now shares the parking lot with a Holiday Inn Express

    You will be able to say you ate at Anthony's Seafood Grotto and stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

    #486 6 years ago
    Quoted from rotordave:

    Beat me to it.
    rd

    Yeah well, you got to eat at Me N Eds. We had one down the street and now it's a Round Table which is actually pretty good.

    I bet the only thing missing there is the cigarette machine with the sign that said "Ye Olde Fags" .

    #491 6 years ago

    Yep,
    Dave's become a regular Huell Howser.

    Till the next episode of "California's Gold".

    #518 6 years ago
    Quoted from Gryszzz:

    CONGRATULATIONS RD and LIL RD!
    One of these days I'll be lucky enough to see the RD family play.

    Ideally that would be late some night in my garage.

    #521 6 years ago
    Quoted from Gryszzz:

    With Seek and Destroy on loop. Not the whole song. Just the hit start and walk away first riff. Over. And over.

    #532 6 years ago
    Quoted from rotordave:

    Because it was better than the first one.

    That's the best reason I have heard in my life.
