Good beginning of the week everyone. I have several news items that have accumulated in my inbox here that I meant to tackle over the weekend but I ended up getting sidetracked by being rather busy at the arcade so this all has been pushed back to now. I had meant to publish this »

I’m not sure that there will be any important news to come along this weekend as Easter arrives (some places are already closed for the ‘Good Friday’ portion of it all), so perhaps this will tide us over. Of course if you haven’t yet, pick up my book about arcades to read over the »
