SDAC-Chicago May 10 Meeting/BBQ

[BadAssPerformance]

I have Tron too... but it's on the old CED format so nobody can play it (unlesss someone actually has a CED Video Disc player besides myself anymore).

Wow, I thought I was the last dude in Chicago with a RCA CED player! My house came with it and a couple milk crates of movies... then I picked up a couple more off of ebay.

TRON rules, was a badass arcade game too! Although it has light cycles, might need more of a 'car'/'mopar' theme tho

[Birddog]

I have TRON on DVD, but I suspect the nerd ratio won't quite be high enough for that one. Never gets old for me, though, so LMK and I can bring it.

Bring it!! Nerd ratio?? C'mon!

[Dodge Aries K]

Heh, I love vintage technology. I have two RCA CED Selectavision SJT200 units, two laserdisc players (one Pioneer basic model and an RCA Home Theatre high end unit), and lots of old video games. I need a betamax VCR tho...

[Birddog]

If your CED breaks I got a guy..

He owned the last T.V. sales and repair in town...

[Birddog]

Here's a strange connection.... Jeff Bridges in Tron.. Jeff Bridges in Tucker?? A stretch?? Justified??

[BadAssPerformance]

Hmmm... do light cycles have 3 headlights?

[Birddog]

No... But we'll be at Dave's house... Land of the homies and free of the braves...

[BadAssPerformance]

It's all good at Dave's

[Birddog]

How about Animal House??? It's a Lincoln but it had EAT ME on it before it became the Deathmobile..

[WickedShelby88]

Mad max is pretty classic too although the star is an old ford falcon and some dude named Gibson.

[Birddog]

I think he just goes by crazy Mel now..

[Turbodave]

I'll be there with bells on!

Should I bring anything?? Corona, Dos Equis, Firewood??

I've got lots of firewood and usually pick up a few cases of beer, we haven't run out before, but there's always room in the cooler for more.

Dave,
I'll be there also. Do you have the parts I'm looking for my wiper motor ?

Thanks,
Jim

Jim, remind me again what parts you need so I can have them there.

I think I can come up with one or two..

How about Crazy Mary Dirty Larry??

Ya know it is the 25th anniversary of War Games.. How about a nice game of Chess?

Dirty Mary Crazy Larry is a classic, War games is great, too. I could get out my RC Teradactyl and buzz the crowd.

I have TRON on DVD, but I suspect the nerd ratio won't quite be high enough for that one. Never gets old for me, though, so LMK and I can bring it.

Tron on the big screen would cool, my garage door is almost a perfect widescreen aspect ratio.

[MiniMopar]

Tron on the big screen would cool, my garage door is almost a perfect widescreen aspect ratio.

I believe I have it in both formats, but I'll check.

[Turbodave]

Forecast looks ok, a little cooler, but no rain predicted. Good bonfire weather!

[MiniMopar]

Mmmm...random object melting fun....

[Turbodave]

Mmmm...random object melting fun....

Yes, bring some junk pistons, I'm all out.

[Birddog]

I have some.. And some Al rods that are shot...

Need firewood??

[Turbodave]

I've got lots of firewood, but that is a good reminder for me to cover it up so it's not wet come Saturday.

[chipdogg]

I'd like to go, Sgt Craig told me I should. But I got stuff planned already. Damn women

[Dodge Aries K]

Tell your girlfriend TOO DAMN BAD and go anyway. The SDAC Chicago guys are a fun bunch.
