Found a goodie:

One of my favorites:
Lawyer: "Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?"
Witness: "No."
Lawyer: "Did you check for blood pressure?"
Witness: "No."
Lawyer: "Did you check for breathing?"
Witness: "No."
Lawyer: "So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?"
Witness: "No."
Lawyer: "How can you be so sure, Doctor?"
Witness: "Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar."
Lawyer: "But could the patient have still been alive nevertheless?"
Witness: "Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere."

MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. It is a piece of software that can emulate the old arcade machines of the 80's and early 90's. Given a ROM file of an old game, it'll reproduce the workings of the arcade game on any PC.

So what a lot of crazy people do is build an entire arcade cabinet and put a computer in it. That way you have the software emulating the game, and you have the hardware of the cabinet, controls, buttons, coin slot, etc filling out the rest of the arcade experience.

I guess I'm now one of those crazy people. Here I've chronicled my adventure as I built a cabinet from scratch, installed the controls, hooked up the computer, and installed it in my basement.

You cut MDO in your basement??? You must be single.....

Where do you get the software?

Can this thread be in response to the word association thread?  Brian, be aware, Nate doesn't have anything KIPASS activated, so go rub your fob in private ;)

Dang.... I missed the implications of that completely. I guess after over ten years of being single I'm getting a little rusty. Good thing she never surfs this site. (I hope)  ;D

That's nice.

I've found that if I want to have a "boys night out" with my married buds, they will frequently say it's "bowling night" to the ball and chain.

I might suggest that if you EVER want another boys night out you learn how to bowl. At the very least, learn the terminology so you don't come across as a total putz.
