You know what I find funny? I would like to know the percentage of members that bought pins and vids BEFORE finishing their basement! ... Probably 98%!
The nick is "The Loafer". Got that particular nick back in the Amiga BBS days because I liked to loaf (taking it easy) and not, as commonly believed, because I like to eat lots of bread.
Here's a pic of myself. Nay, here are 2 pics. The first was taken Xmas 06 with my brother (I'm on the left), the second was taken 6 months later, June 2007. It was a heck of a year .
Life is like Pinball!! You never know where you will bounce or where your going but sometimes you have that one amazing shot But on the other hand you have those darn gutter ball where you just get frustrated.
Hey you know what... I bought home Final Lap II video prior to finish the house I't not yet finished and should have 1 vid and 2 pins inside!! hey hey!

Here's me, on right and my hubby (way too lenient with my "hobby", he prefers arcade video) on the left. We have one son (prefers Wii, but does like to beat me at pinball too), a dog, fish and a hamster, about 16 Webkinds, and are trying for another child. Amazing how few pictures I'm in, I'm always behind the camera.

Wow.... I guess you did ALOT less loafing since that first picture.
That's quite a remarkable weight loss . Jarod would be proud.
I am one of the guys who made the mistake of buying a bunch of machines before i finished my basement,
it's hard trying to put in a floor, and put up drywall when you have pinball machines all over the place, thankfully all i have left to do is put up baseboards, but what a pain in the butt,
if you guys are ever thinking of moving and finishing your basement, finish it first!!!! or if you can, hire someone to do it so it doesn't take 4 years to get done

THanks 108lbs to be exact (though is goes up/down about 3-4 lbs). I didn't even use Subway either! . Yeah, I became active and I just love the bike trail between Russell and Embrun, sucks in the winter though.
congratulations thats an amazing accomplishment, i've been working on loseing weight too, haven't touched fast food since august, which is really hard considering i'd eat fast food like 2x a day. congratulations!

I'll carry on the theme of fishing. Here's a pic of my son and I this summer at a good friend's cottage That's my son catching his first fish. Not shown in the picture are my other 2 boys. The boy with his back towards the camera is Medvet's son. Guess who the good friend is
My name's Duane. Choose Twilightzone as my nick as I couldn't think of anything at the time and figured enter my favorite pinball. I've been collecting for over 10 years now!!! Cann't believe it's that long, but it is. Started with vids. At one time had about 8 vids. Got two pinballs free and that was it, I was hooked. I bought a couple more pins and really wanted a TZ, but $1,600 seemed like alot of money back then -- vids were $100 to $200. Then a friend mentioned I only needed to sell all my vids and a pin to get the TZ. All the games were up for sale that day I only kept one vid and that was a Robotron. Got TZ delivered to my house on Christmas eve -- what an amazing Christmas that was. And it was pre-kids so I played ALOT of TZ on Christmas and the days leading up to New Year's.
Real name is Daniel. My nic comes from my first 4 years of teaching in a private school in Mississauga. My real last name is McLean, and kids called me McMean behind my back. I've mellowed out a lot since then (now teaching for 11 years) but I always liked that name... I have 3 pins and a vid in my finished basement, although I'm currently in negotiations with the wife to redo a portion of the basement so I could end up with enough room for 5 pins. Other than that, I have 2 daughters, a cat and a dog.
Is it an atom? No, it's multiball! Complete MAACA-Wacko!

I am new here but have put up several posts lately. Well, this is me...the name is Warren...have a son (almost 2) and daughter (almost 11). The boy likes when I stand him up on a chair so he can do the plunger skill shot when we play. He demands we play "pinmalls" when I get home most evenings.

We took our wedding pics outside at my old shop which conveniently had most of my games inside. My wife Kiki (she's in the white). That was a special day - I kicked her butt 3 games to none! It's been kinda the opposite since then

Name's Greg....nickname of Hippochrome was totally by accident (i.e. not my actual nickname) It was just the first thing I thought of when I realized that I had to make an account here...Oh well, no escaping it now
However, after seeing the recent additions I vote: 1. Pha is the guy we send after Mr. Anderson. 2. Mark2 is the guy who plans our weddings. 3. Hippo is the guy who buys our clothes.
Great pics guys.
