A painting of me

"If someone told me in 1987 that Oregon Trail would be played on a three-inch touchscreen device with better graphics and improved music, I'd have slapped them in the face." ⇒

  1. C’mon, Oregon Trail was the voodoo doll of the pre-internet classroom.

    You could create a family of the people you hated and feed them gruel while crossing America’s heartland at breakneck speed… that is until they all died of dysentery or smallpox.

    Ah, the memories.

  3. Yeah, I think we should. I have the most vague of memories playing Oregon Trail. I wonder if Carmen Sandiago is in the works as well.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
