It all started with my idea to create monthly themed Top Ten lists about video games based on some sort of pun (Jam-uary, Food-uary, Blarch, Ape-ril, etc.).

You Are Mine: Mine Carts in Games
I’m not sure what exactly inspired me to write this article, but driving through the beautiful mountains of Wyoming has certainly helped. Every once in awhile, I’ll spot an old tunnel carved out of the side of a mountain and wonder where that tunnel might lead. Many of these tunnels have railroad attached to them,Continue reading “You Are Mine: Mine Carts in Games”

Starting in about 2005, I decided to keep track of every video game I had ever beaten including the date and time of completion.

It’s the day after Thanksgiving, and we’re all still recovering from the massive amount of food that we put into our bodies.

Top Ten Movies I Should Have Never Watched as a Kid
Growing up, there were a lot of movies that I saw that probably caused at least 85% of the nightmares that I am still having to this day. I’m guessing that most of these movies were watched when I had a babysitter, and I was able to go through my parent’s collection of movies thatContinue reading “Top Ten Movies I Should Have Never Watched as a Kid”

Released between 1990 and 1992, these games were made byContinue reading “Crayon Art #8: Microsoft Entertainment Pack”
