old school arcade games

    My top 5 favorite old-school arcade games:
  1. Mortal Kombat
  2. Dragon's Lair
  3. Dragon Spirit
  4. Mr. Do!
  5. Venture (goin' way back y'all)

It amazes me that you can now play games far cooler in caliber at home. We had Pong for chrissake!

"A Very Special Muppet Christmas" rocked! Basically it was the Muppet version of "A Wonderful Life" where Kermit becomes despirited after losing the Muppet Theatre. Hilarious moments included the Penguins and Chickens doing the "Smells Like Teen Spirit/Lady Marmalade" medley scene from Moulin Rouge (Bawk-Bawk!). In the alternate reality where Kermit was never born, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew sported a soul patch and was a nightclub doorman with attitude for a trendy club. Beaker was 'roided out as a bouncer (MUR MUR MURR!), and Sam the Eagle was a pacifier-suckin' glow-stick wieldin' tripped out club kid! Got to see some Matrix action with Miss Piggy doin' her kung fu (HAII-YAA!) Too funny.

not sure why, but I was always a big fan of Q*Bert, and some game where you jumped on balloons...
