My old hobby.

I was at Fred Meyer today and saw a paint gun being sold there next to the BB guns. Back in the old days you had to get them from a catalog or a specific store (makes me sound old, doesn't it).

While at lunch it was committed about Chris, a coworker, had come and sat in on this week's HERO game. With the 2 girls they did not know what a RPG or Roll Playing Game was. One thought it was a board game. After a brief description, I think they were a little surprised to find out what it was.

AstroWorld Closed

I found out that AstroWorld (that was in Houston, TX) has closed down (looks about 6 months now) at my brother's wedding. I had worked there for 2 summers and was sad to hear the news.

It does look like they saved two of the rides and looks like the water park is still there.
