Calvin's Canadian Cave Of Cool Manifesto
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

The one I owned had several paddle settings. My fave was paddles on all four sides and your controller moved two of them at the same time.
Wooooooo! High tec!
Bleep.
Bloop.
Bleep.
Bloop.
This is fun, huh?
Yeah... Dammit, you made me miss!
Not only do I remember, I had pong until I moved 6 years ago and the freaking movers must have stolen it. I didn't notice until more than a year later. I was so bummed out...
We just didn't know any better back then. We were a simple people who had to come home to make a phone call and used the kids to change the channels on the TV.
Yeah I remember the little doowhacky tv games we had as kids. It was similar to the pic you have here, but the control module had an attractive walnut-like finish to it. The only game we could play as tennis and by that I mean we had the little plug in control sticks which would bounce a 'ball' back n forth across the screen.
Oh, and it went 'bing' which sounded very science-ey and space age.
..It's only just come out here in Australia..what do you mean old?!
I remember this game at Eastgate mall in Sherwood Park in the mid 70's. Yep hanging out at Tops n Toys ah memories. There was also that helicopter game where the helicopter was attached to a metal rod and with the joy stick you had to land the thing in amongst trees for points. It was the precursor to the video game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIV4fnWcnPs
I still have my Pong game.
Good times and we were so happy with it.
I still lovePong. In Mexico, it was sold under the brand NESA Pong!
Fine, you finally put one out there that I can't be a part of. While I have played pong, it was well after it would have been considered "cutting edge."
I guess this means I'm noy your people.
We will make an exception for you TS since you are one of the good ones. Plus you never leave the room when we are telling our 'stories'.
Wow, they're hard-core...they're playing with the short paddles!
More stories! More stories!
My brother and I played Pong all the time.
Oh, man. My cousins had PONG. I was sooooooo jealous!
Mine had the levers and not the dials. It was from Radio Shack.
We were too poor. It wasn't until the 2600 came out that we got our own system.
And yes, my brother still has it. He keeps it in his office with his Sega and all the rest because his wife is anti-video-game but whenever she leaves town we have some crazy fun old school gaming weekends! Come over! :)
