Watto's Junk Yard / Love Songs
« on: February 11, 2004, 09:17 PM »
Keeping with theme of the weekend, what's your favorite love songs.
Here are mine: 2 Beatles songs "Here, There and Everywhere" and "I Will", me and wifey had these sung at our wedding, always holds a special place in both of our hearts
I Will
Who knows how long I've loved you
You know I love you still
Will I wait a lonely lifetime
If you want me to-- I will.
For if I ever saw you
I didn't catch your name
But it never really mattered
I will always feel the same.
Love you forever and forever
Love you with all my heart
Love you whenever we're together
Love you when we're apart.
And when at last I find you
Your song will fill the air
Sing it loud so I can hear you
Make it easy to be near you
For the things you do endear you to me
You know I will
I will.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Special nod to Sweet Child O' Mine for some great moments in my youth

Watto's Junk Yard / Hardest Video Games To Beat
« on: February 9, 2004, 11:34 AM »
I could never for the life of me beat Pro Wrestling for Ye Olde Nintendo, I always lost on some lameoid Suplex or Back Breaker. I tried a year or so ago to even make it to the Great Puma and I couldn't, so sad, so very sad

I watched this last night for the first time in at least 10 years (it was on ESPN Classic) What a total schlock fest, Daniel-San still brings a small tear to my eye when he knocks out Johnny with "The Kick"
I also like breaking out that move around my brother, its unstoppable

Watto's Junk Yard / Instant Karma
« on: February 2, 2004, 06:24 PM »
Well, I've been in the hospital since Saturday, my appendix just about exploded Saturday afternoon and I went under the knife yesterday. Missed most of the SUper Bowl in a drug induced haze, been on some pretty heavy duty pain meds. My whole stomach is killing me right now, and unfortunately they had to vut me open instead of using a scope which is easier on the patient. The whole karma thing was that just three days ago I was bragging about never having had surgey and here I am typing with a huge gash in my abdomen

Watto's Junk Yard / How often do you go to the Dentist?
« on: January 28, 2004, 02:13 PM »
I haven't been for a year and a half now (sorry Dressel) but I just have this sneaking suspicion that the "cavity" I had last time was just a quick way for the dentist to make a few hundred off me, I hate going, plus my inusrance doesn't cover anything besides cleaning. Add on top of that a constant badgering for new x-rays and teeth whitening and scraping, I avoid going at all costs...my teeth are OK, probably need a good scraping...

Tonight while watching the TWolves win again (sigh) I somehow hit 444 on the remote and up pops the NBA League Pass, San Antonio versus Milwaukee...now Comcast might be running some sort of League Pass special right now but I've been enjoying the heck out of free NBA basketball all night! Lets hope this keeps up..sadly none of the other "Premium nudge nudge" Channels are unlocked

Watto's Junk Yard / Places You'd Never Move To
« on: January 22, 2004, 04:00 PM »
As you may have read I was recently in Houston, TX and I can say without any doubt in my mind that I would never move there...even for a million dollars. To top it off it wasn't the summer where the heat and humidity where turned on a full blast...
Feel free to list Minnesota...high taxes, cold weather, snow, crappy football team etc etc

Watto's Junk Yard / What have you stopped collecting?
« on: January 14, 2004, 02:18 PM »
With the near death of SW Lego and LOTR (which came back in style!), the certain death of MOTU I was thinking of my collecting history and what I used to collect as a lad...
Hot Wheels (2-3 Years Old) I guess I was big into Hot Wheels as a young, young kid. My son is the same way right now, he loves cars and playing with them.
Sesame Street Little People (3-4 Years Old) My first real toys I really remeber treasuring and loving...I have many fond memories of playing with these guys and I am really looking forward to the new SS line because of them
/basic_figures/han_solo/tn/tn-han_solo__sw-smallhead.jpg)
/basic_figures/luke_skywalker/tn/tn-Luke_Skywalker.jpg)
Star Wars (4-8 Years Old) I stopped collecting these right as ROTJ came out, that 3 year gap got me into MOTU instead...didn't hurt that the cartoon was out then too
Masters of the Universe (7-10 Years Old) Got into the cartoon big time, brother and my first real experience playing together, we split the guys up and had a pretty nice collection
GI Joe (8-12 Years Old) This is the one that surprises me, looking back on kiddom, I was way more into GI Joe than I was SW, I had tons more Joes, I played with them longer, it really surprises me I haven't caved on the new lines or gotten back into vintage
M.A.S.K. (10-11 Years Old) I was collecting 2 lines hardcore in 5th through 7th grade, M.A.S.K. and GI Joe. Again I have a bunch of my stuff but most of the stuff before this (MOTU, SW, Little People) were all sold or lost or traded for more Joes.
Comics (10-14 Years Old) My GI Joe buddy got me into Comic Books with the introduction to the Marvel Secret Wars arc. I was drawn to Captain America and the Avengers for some reason. Got into some other titles a little but focused on both of them pretty much exclusively. My buddy moved away (he was huge into Spidey) when I was 13 but I kept on reading for a little while after...
Sportscards (12-18 Years Old) Like some of you I got hooked up big time in the whole sportscard raquet of the late 80's. I still remember fondly those times, but also think of all the money I blew on cards when I should have been saving some for school. Oh well, it was a good ride and I love looking through my cards still. Glad I gave it up too, I am shocked at all of the crap that is still out there
And thats it, everything I collected as an adult, I still am, which is pretty sick, sure I've dabbled in toylines here and there but I haven't gone hard core like I have now. I need to get help I think and cut some chains...get rid of some stuff and see how I feel
