That was indeed a great read - coming to the hobby late, I've caught up on a lot of this history, but love finding new stuff! Thanks Brock for posting!
Agreed - the social side of pinball is indeed the best side. I have to admit I spend more time talking/texting with my pinball buddies than I have been with my other friends since I got started in the hobby, and why I enjoy the online side of things.
After all - who better to hang out with...
I was trying to write the whole thing tongue-in-cheek. I have seven pinball machines in my basement, Adam. That's a whole lot of do what I want. :)
I just have other hobbies/activities that eat up funds, too. Playing squash ain't cheap, baseball tickets and league fees add up (along with...
My friends in the hobby who've known me a while laugh at my progression, but I've noticed what seems like a recent explosion in new members looking to buy their first machine, and I thought I would put together this handy dandy little set of guidelines for how I've managed to expand my...
Keep corrupting others....Warlock can blame it all on me, and now it looks like I'll be dragging another one along.

Loving the game!
My favorite part of Tron wasn't playing it, but listening to daft punk and watching the oled screen in a trance-like state. Sweet. Gotta get the 2.1 mod if you've got a tron.
Happy to assist with posting the vid ads!
Anxiously awaiting the arrival of F14 Dave, who will assist me in getting Grand Lizard downstairs, and the new armchairs for the living room out of my van. They were the real price for my getting Grand Lizard!
Mike, the 2nd woman is actually my 2nd wife. I had no idea she was flirting with another guy - I was out buying baseball players at auction with my 2nd wife's first husband.
That clear it all up?
Nice to see Road Show getting some love. My problem is a good one. Now that I'm starting to really get into my wh20 I have no idea which pin leaves next. My limit is 4, but I have 6. See how long I can keep that one up. :)
