Well where do I begin

I work for New York State and im a father of 3 kick butt kids 8, 7 and 18 months.  I love old school games like Nintendo and Atari 2600, I have played them a lot and still do.  I have at least 4 Nintendo's and the same for the Atari's.  I just like to have back ups. I also have a Super Nintendo.  I even have a complete almost in mint condition Comadore 128...lol.  I have played computer games for a long time too and have to admit that I was a Diablo junkie.  My wife has gone so far as to break my Diablo cd's just to get me to stop.  Well you know me I had a plan for the back up for that little mis hap.  Once I got my hands on Unreal Tournament Game of the Year Edition, I was hooked as a first person shooter fan.  I was drooling when I had a chance to get Unreal 2004 Editors Choice Edition.  When someone told me about Halo for the PC, I went down and got a copy and the game was very AWSOME,  I was now a die hard Halo fan.  My VERY cool younger brother Doug gave me a new Xbox just so I could get and play Halo 2.  A couple of months later I played the Mountian Dew bottle cap code contest at every10minutes.com and they were giving away an Xbox 360 every 10 minutes.  Well I played and I won a Premium 360 on 9/19/05 in one of the 10 min time slots.  To show my brother how happy I was that he gave me an Xbox and to do something for him. I collected caps from multiple connections and got at least 2,200 bottle caps.  It took me about 3 weeks to get them all.  the very large duffle bag had to be 15 lbs.  Thank god I did not have to drink them all to get them.  My brother and I flooded a 10 min time slot, it took 8 hrs to put them in and we won one for him too.  I wont tell you what time slot it was....lol.  We play Halo 2 on the 360 a lot now.  Well I will post more when I can.  I think I might be getting some tonight so I have to go.
