I've seriously looked into enrolling in Space Camp for adults.

Do you remember the movie, Space Camp? It was one of Lea Thompson's earlier works -- and I do use the term 'works' very loosely.

:laugh2:

I do, I also remember when Saved By the Bell: The New Class did an episode there.

Max and Jinx -- FRIENDS FOREVER.

:laugh2:

Edit: Wow! I just learned that Max, the little boy in Space Camp, was played by Joaquin Phoenix.

Wow, I didn't know that either. It's like they say, you learn something new every time you talk about Space Camp.

Ok, they don't say that...but they should.

Ha ha!

I just remembered another nerdy chapter from my history:

I used to enter Tekken competitions. I was the best Hwoarang player in Austin.:p:

At least you didn't use Eddie Gordo.

I used to enter Street Fighter 2 tournaments in the 90's. Good times, good times.

I preferred his 70s counterpart, Tiger. But Eddy was definitely the ultimate masher character.

After Tekken Tag Tournament was released, my favorite tag team was Hwoarang and Bruce Irvin.

I can't decide. Could be a handful of things.

- Reading law journals. Science journals too, just not as frequently.
- Reading the dictionary, pages at a time.
- Studying political philosophy, or that it keeps me from falling asleep.
- The computer interests: programming, security, networking, repair, administration, etc. I used to install random server software, then try to crack it for fun. Yeah.
- The times I was into competitive gaming (RTS), and that when I have lucid dreams it always devolves into gaming of some sort.
- There's also the football interest. Actively studying passing concepts, protections, coverages, techniques, talent and scheme scouting, proper training methods, etc. It's a lot of excess knowledge for something I won't likely get involved in again.

Psssh, you don't get to call yourself the best anything at Tekken until you've played in China Town in NYC.

Then again, Marvel vs. Capcom is the big game now here, and has been for several years.

And yes, the above is probably the nerdiest thing about me.

never been to a strip bar?

Damn I thought I led a boring life.

Have you at least watched a porn movie?

Meh, I went to a strip club a couple times just to get the experience out the way. It was nothing that, in retrospect, I felt I "had" to do. Very overrated, imo.

1) I like cats and "own" three of them

2) I was a history major in college, watch the history channel, read lots of books and do the battlefield type tours wherever I go.

Well, unless the kids in China Town are from Austin, Texas, my assertion is still valid.;)

It's true that different cities offer varying levels of competition. San Antonio had far better competition than Austin.

You must be the only guy on the planet who hasn't watched a porn movie.

Have you at least watched Dressed to Kill with Angie Dickinson (aka the shower and cab scene)?
