maybe he was out walking when his game stash was lifted.
apart from the frivelous nature of what was stolen, I'm sure he's feeling seriously violated from this crime.
when srj/confront/gnome were younger it was: “pong” or pacman. before that, was “empire” on a mini computer or telnet “diplomacy.”

Sorry to burst your bubble, BG, but I've never been addicted to video games. I hate that someone had stuff stolen, but maybe it'll have a silver lining.

I think its sad that people have nothing better to do than to criticize and pass their own judgement on something that they know very little about. Does it matter if it was a video game, cash, or someones treasured possessions? Should it matter?
