Serial numbers, sometimes called license keys, are generated by the producer of a piece of software according to a mathematical algorithm. The software's installation package is able to verify that a key is valid using this algorithm, ensuring that only licensed users may install the software.
When a user installs a piece of software that relies on a serial number for verification, he is prompted to enter his key at some point during the install process. The installation software then analyzes the key using the same mathematical algorithm used to generate valid serial numbers. If the serial number is a possible valid result, the software assumes the user is properly licensed and allows access to the program. If the key cannot be generated using the algorithm, the installer flags it as invalid and requests a corrected serial number.
If a serial number algorithm is discovered or cracked, software pirates can generate keys that check out as valid during the install process. To combat this practice, software authors frequently patch programs to lock out known invalid keys or to change the algorithm. In addition, some publishers use additional verification methods, such as an online server that validates each key individually, preventing generated keys from being reused and helping identify keys the publisher did not issue.

These are yesterday's drawings that stretched into today due to the fact that the black background took so long! Yesterday morning's hike was delightful and cool and full of flowers. One, the Pale Spiked Lobelia, has somehow escaped my notice all these years. There are so many plants that it has to have been there for quite a while. The other flowers are regulars around Middlewood; old friends. I know them well. The orchids are extra special flowers that arise on such dainty brown stalks, and have such small purply-green flowers that some years I miss them altogether. Each plant is made up of one beautiful leaf that unfurls in the fall and lasts all winter. They are so bright in the winter woods, crinkly, with purple spots and shocking purple undersides, that you always notice them. But by early summer they're gone. In August, when the bloom stalk rises from the forest floor, it's very difficult to see them if you're looking for them. If you forget to look, forget it... unless you happen to have a 7-month old Collie puppy that likes to snap at anything she walks past. She ate the top of one last week, took a bite of it as we walked down the path. I thought to myself, Oh! yes, it's that time of year.... the Cranefly Orchids are in bloom!
Thanks, Daisy.
Back at home, the ink drawings were complete but I was disappointed in how the pale yellow sunflower wimped out on the white paper, so I put some black squiggles around it to strengthen the contrast. Ooohh... I liked the way the flower suddenly popped off the page... how about do another? In the end I didn't have the energy or willpower to make myself do the Cranefly Orchid. It would be too tedious, and now I see that I should soften the black edges a little. Anyway, here you go - August wildflowers of the Piedmont.

New Robo Launch Claims to be First Artificial Intelligence Advisor
Pefin, a new digital advice platform, claims to be "the world's first artificial intelligence financial advisor," according to a company press release.
Pefin, which stands for PErsonal Financial INtelligence, was founded by Ramya Joseph, an alum of Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, according to her LinkedIn profile.
The platform has no minimum investment and charges $15 per month, although the first 100,000 clients can sign up for $10 per month, the company says. The new robo also charges a 0.25% asset-based fee, which is waived for accounts with less than $5,000, according to the press release. But Pefin doesn't require its clients to invest on its platform, the firm says. Pefin also offers customized investment advice and portfolio management from human advisors through its SEC-registered RIA, Pefin Advisors, according to the press release.
The company claims Pefin's AI can take into account a client's life events such as having children, paying for college, buying a new home and switching jobs, as well as the financial markets, government regulations and even regional demographics, to draft financial plans.
The AI is purportedly able to make 80-year financial projections while tracking up to 5 million data points for each user, according to the press release. The AI then spits out advice on saving, repaying debt, and investing, Pefin says. In addition, the engine can learn over time from the user's spending habits and personal preferences and adapt the financial plan and advice automatically, the company claims. Joseph also says in the press release that Pefin is "fiduciary by design."
"My Wall Street career helped millionaires and yet I saw my own parents and close friends of modest income being sold investment products or services they didn't need when seeking advice," she says in the press release. "Pefin was built to make sure anyone could access true fiduciary advice – from planning and saving to investing, in a way that only acts in their best interest."

Press release
BIS confirms ICE Academy campuses not entitled to student support designation
BIS has confirmed that the ICE Academy's campuses in Manchester, Bedford and Croydon have never been designated for student support.
The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) has confirmed that the ICE Academy's campuses in Manchester, Bedford and Croydon have never been designated for student support. Students at these campuses have never been eligible for student support. ICE Academy should not have advertised places on these courses as being eligible for support. These students will not receive any further payments and fee loans paid to the College on their behalf will be recovered by Student Loans Company (SLC).
Following an investigation ICE Academy admitted that it had supplied misleading information to the SLC about where some of its students were studying. They had provided details that led the SLC to believe that around 400 students studying at Manchester, Bedford and Croydon were studying at campuses where courses were designated for student support.
BIS hopes that ICE Academy will help students who wish to either continue their studies without public funding at one of their campuses or find a suitable course at another provider. For students moving to a new provider, BIS will consider approving their student support at that provider on a case by case basis. However, BIS will not approve student support payments for any students that transfer to another course at ICE Academy.
ICE Academy have also been informed that if in the future it goes beyond the terms of its designations or knowingly misleads SLC, BIS may decide to withdraw some or all of their designations.
The Department is sorry that ICE Academy has put these students in such a difficult position.
Please direct all queries to Satish Visavadia at the ICE Academy on 0116 255 5003 or by email at: email@example.com.
Notes to editors
1.The government's economic policy objective is to achieve 'strong, sustainable and balanced growth that is more evenly shared across the country and between industries'. It set 4 ambitions in the 'Plan for Growth', published at Budget 2011:
- to create the most competitive tax system in the G20
- to make the UK the best place in Europe to start, finance and grow a business
- to encourage investment and exports as a route to a more balanced economy
- to create a more educated workforce that is the most flexible in Europe
Work is underway across government to achieve these ambitions, including progress on more than 250 measures as part of the Growth Review. Developing an Industrial Strategy gives new impetus to this work by providing businesses, investors and the public with more clarity about the long-term direction in which the government wants the economy to travel.

God Doesn't Even Answer Prayers to Himself from Himself
9/07/2014 | Share this article: View CommentsBy Carolyn Hyppolite ~
Every January, the Catholic Church dedicates a week to praying for Christian unity. For eight years—even after I had left Catholicism—I joined them in that prayer. As a believer in Christ, I knew how instrumental Christian discord is in sowing doubts in the minds of outside observers. For if Christians cannot bring themselves to agree on what mandates of God are, is it not at least an indication that they are not guided by the same omnipotent deity but rather by their own interior preferences and prejudices?
Christians are often defensive about this charge, quickly discounting their deep differences, and insisting that they are in agreement about the key issue—Jesus Christ.
However, it is not just pesky atheists who think that Christian division poses a threat to the faithful's credibility. According to the Gospel of John, Jesus knew that the faithful's disunity raises doubts:
"I ask not only on behalf of these, but also on behalf of those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one. As you, Father, are in me and I am in you, may they also be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. Father, I desire that those also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory, which you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world (John 17:20-24).
There are two noteworthy issues in this prayer of Jesus. First that he realizes that the lack of unity signals to the world that there are reasons to not believe and secondly that a prayer by none other than Jesus remains unfulfilled 20 centuries after they were allegedly spoken.
Notice Jesus is said to be pleading not for current believers but for future, potential believers. It is their salvation that is at stake by the fact that Christians cannot agree. It's hard enough to believe the claims of one person that he is in communication with a divine, invisible being and that through that communication, he—and it is usually a "he"—has knowledge about how you should conduct your life and that you should give him money. But if another one should interject with a competing perspective on that same deity, we can be assured that at least one of them is mistaken, and moreover, we now have good reason to suspect that both of them are either deceived and/or deceiving.
However, the fact that most nagged me about this prayer in my last year as a Christian is the fact that Jesus prayed it. And I am not referring to the mind-bending notion that an omnipotent being needs to address a prayer to his father, who is simultaneously himself. That bit of nonsense I had rationalized by calling it "mystery"—that dark hole of non-answers where all demonstrably false theistic assertions seek shelter from reason.
I am talking about just the plain fact that Jesus, who presumably excels in faith and virtue, made an important and reasonable request to his father, who allegedly gives good gifts and answers the righteous and yet, here we are 2000 years after the fact and Christians are divided into ever more numerous factions with views spanning the political and theological spectrum.
You cannot know by the fact that someone uses the label "Christian," whether she believes in a literal Hell where there is physical torment, a spiritual Hell where one is separated from God and lives in "darkness," or no Hell at all. All are however united by an eagerness to point out that not everyone who claims to be a Christian is an authentic one and that it is the other guy who has got it wrong.
You cannot know by the fact that someone uses the label "Christian," whether she believes in a literal Hell where there is physical torment, a spiritual Hell where one is separated from God and lives in "darkness," or no Hell at all. All are however united by an eagerness to point out that not everyone who claims to be a Christian is an authentic one and that it is the other guy who has got it wrong.Yes, yes, I understand a delay in the fulfilment of God's action does not mean God has not answered. How do I know that God is not going to bring about Christian unity in his time? God's timing—that other dark hole.
Here's the problem, Christians. God's delay poses an eternal threat to millions, if not billions of well-meaning souls who would have otherwise accepted Jesus and gone to Heaven. If even just one person does not believe and goes to Hell all because God has delayed in clarifying the myriad theological disagreements among Christians then God's delay is responsible for the perishing of that soul. And is not one soul worth God getting off his throne and making himself clear?
Yes, yes, I understand that he made the issues perfectly clear the first time he revealed them just the way your particular denomination now interprets it. I understand if all would just follow your pope, your pastor's view of the plain meaning of Scripture, your sacred tradition, there would be no problem, but would it be such a divine inconvenience for him to send another memo?
Yes, yes, I understand that all atheists really know that God exists and are resisting the knowledge of God because they want to sin, but what might there not be five, just five atheists in the whole history of the planet, who have been dissuaded from faith because there are so many competing views of God? And did we not learn from Abraham that the God should be mindful of just five?
And we know that there must be a few. We know that Christian disunity causes people to not believe for the Bible tells us so. Jesus said so.
After about eight years of praying for Christian unity, it one day occurred to me that if God has not yet answered this very important and reasonable prayer of Jesus, what use was there in adding my own voice? In fact, what basis was there for me to imagine that God would answer any prayer at all?
Today, with the benefit of some distance, I can better imagine the social setting of this strange story arose. I can imagine the early Church breaking up into factions, and I can imagine onlookers pointing out that their factions demonstrates the falsehood of their proclamations. The Scripture writer cannot deny this fact and wants to compel believers to shape up so that their community is not disparaged. What better way to encourage good behavior than to place the words in the mouth of Jesus. Jesus, right before he was crucified, prayed that we be united; surely, we can do it for him.
What the evangelist did not seem to anticipate is that this was easier said than done. He probably also did not anticipate that Jesus would delay his second coming for two millennia allowing ample time for Christians to discover numerous areas of disagreement.
Yet, what should give us even more reason to be skeptical than the fact of Christian disunity is the indisputable fact that God has not answered the prayer of his only begotten son. God does not answer prayer; not even the ones he makes to himself from himself.

Discussion in 'General Discussion' started by MtnBiker, Jan 24, 2004.
I am considering doing some home brewing. Does anyone have experience or thoughts on the matter?
I had a friend that I knew who did that. His beer tasted like shit, but I've heard many good stories. Buy the equipment, brew some, ship some to me, and I'll tell you if it was worth it!
Jim, I do believe that Dad tried it too!!!!
Deal, it will take me sometime and no guarantees.
Mtnbiker, I had a friend in Iowa who brewed his own barley pop and I can tell you he never ever brew enough to keep up with the demand of the few lucky ones that got to sample it and do some serious to his stock every chance I got. also the stuff was outstanding and very strong!!!! it may take a few times to get it right but once you do you will never buy store-bought again...OK, you might have to cause it wont stay around once you have passed out a few samples. many different flavors/types to try.... better than a home-depot!!!![guy thing] good luck and enjoy
I have been dying to try this for a while now. Hey why don't we brew the USMB Brand !!!
My friend did it also. First few tasted like shit. Once he did a couple though..it was pretty damn good.
Sounds like a plan Eric!!
fellas, if what you guys brew is anything close to what I had in Iowa...BE CAREFULL... this stuff will kick the shit out of you before you know what hit ya..
Well it will be a least a month before I can get to brewing and the trial and error phase seems logical. But a USMB Bitter sounds really good.. When a get a good batch brewed, something like Jon's buddy in Iowa, I will probably name it big dog ale after my Lab. Anyway any feedback or suggestions are greatly appreciated and I'll let you guys know how I progress.
this sounds like a good time to be had!
Separate names with a comma.

Barbadian companies with poor company cultures may face a "brain drain" if their employees are wooed by competitors with better work environments. This is one of the major insights uncovered in a recently released report entitled "The Employee View of the Employer Brand". The report contains insights uncovered by a survey designed to uncover the views of Barbadian employees and employers on a range of brand-related topics, including organisational culture, salary & benefits, training opportunities and internal communications. The survey was conducted by Antilles Economics, an insights consulting firm, and Blueprint Creative, one of Barbados' leading strategic branding agencies.
Results coming out of the research project suggest that the majority of Barbadians are willing to change jobs based on their potential employer's culture. In fact, two out of three persons (66.9%) who participated in the survey indicated that they would leave their current job for the same salary if they had the opportunity to work in an organisation with a better culture. A third of the respondents (32.9%) indicated that they would leave their current job for a lower salary if they had the opportunity to work in an organisation with a better culture.
This trend of employees willing to switch jobs and "trade up" for better work environments could easily lead to an exodus of skilled workers away from companies with poor cultures and towards companies with positive environments. These results point to a sobering reality for companies with poor company cultures that, in the long run, will likely face challenges in retaining skilled employees.
The news for companies with poor cultures is even more grim when we factor in the difficulties these organisations may face in trying to attract new talent to join their teams. When participants of the survey were asked if they would leave their current job to work for an employer with a poor corporate culture, 80.4% responded that they wouldn't. When asked if they would work for an employer with a poor corporate culture if they could earn a higher salary, only 19.6% responded in the affirmative. However, that willingness to change jobs comes with a hefty price tag. Of those who were willing to leave their current jobs and move to a company with a poor culture, 30.9% would require a pay increase of at least 10%. 45.7% of respondents indicated that they would need, at a minimum, a 25% increase, while 16.0% indicated that they would need a pay increase of more than 25% to leave their current job to work for an employer with a poor corporate culture. In short, 92.6% would need a salary increase of at least 10% to work for an employer with a poor corporate culture.
Collectively, these results point to what representatives from Antilles Economics and Blueprint Creative refer to as a "culture tax" which workers impose on companies with poor cultures. For these organisations with poor working environments, this "tax" has the potential to increase hiring and retention costs.
The results of the survey should cause entrepreneurs, business owners and management teams to pause and take stock of their company cultures, as the effects of a potential brain drain combined with the "culture tax" could be extremely detrimental to companies with poor cultures. Over time, organisations with poor cultures are likely to experience gradual decreases in the quality of their products and services as their industry's 'best and brightest' workers are snapped up by competitors, leaving a pool of less qualified, less talented and less experienced job seekers for organisations with poor cultures to choose from.
While there is a tendency for some business leaders to view company culture as a "soft" factor when it comes to competitiveness, the results of the survey show that there are tangible financial consequences for having poor working environments.

Welcome to The Noodlehood
11 comments:
Do they do counter service at this location like they do at the other two, or is it table service? Thanks.ReplyDelete
Counter service! I just added a line about that in the write up. Thanks.
Cool. Thanks!ReplyDelete
I got carry out from Jenni's the week they opened. $22 for two dishes (curry and the egg roll noodles). The minute I opened it all at home, I went ahead and started cooking some more food because it obviously wasn't going to be enough for two. The curry had a consistency thinner than water if that's even possible. The guy at the counter kept calling me "BIG MATT!!" (patronizingly) and saying things like "Welcome to Jenni's Noodle House....In the HEIIIGHTS!" He was the "Makin' Copieees!" equivalent of a restaurant server. Maybe some people like that but I found it very annoying.ReplyDelete
I see no reason why I would choose this again over Thai Spice, Vietnam, Cavalcade Thai Restaurant, or Empire Seafood. I might even consider Happy All before Jenni's. 5th or 6th best asian place in the neighborhood doesn't cut it for me.

Jenni's is way more kid friendly than the others. That carries some weight with me.ReplyDelete

I too had watery curry and slightly overpriced food. Not at all impressed. Just because a restaurant opens in the heights does not mean it is any more special than any other restaurant-- you still have to reach for quality, good food. Will probably not eat there again.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousAugust 10, 2010 at 1:41 AM
Staff was nice but food was too bland, far from authentic and overpriced for quantity served. Gave it two tries and it just didnt work for me.ReplyDelete

Went on Friday night. I had the lemongrass chicken. I hardly tasted lemongrass, but with the help of soy sauce, it was still tastey. However, I finished my plate and was still hungry. Portion was too small in my opinion.ReplyDelete
Husband ordered super duper fried rice. He thought it was the worst fried rice he had ever had. I ended up finishing his plate and thought it was okay.
I wanted to order Wonton soup to go last night, but when I saw it was $7, I decided not too. While I realize it is a large portion, I'm used to paying under $5 for a large wonton soup.
I hope they listen to feedback and improve.
"I hope they listen to feedback and improve."ReplyDelete
Restaurants in the Heights have a pretty good track record for this. I like to think it's because many are locally owned. Every new restaurant will have areas where they need to improve. Feedback is vital- both positive and negative. Again, I had a decent experience but I can see where a lot of these criticisms are coming from. I do hope Scott and Jenni listen to the community and are able to tailor the Heights' restaurant to the neighborhood as needed.
- AnonymousAugust 25, 2010 at 3:30 PM
we finally tried jenni's after hearing so much about it. we weren't really impressed. we got the tofu appetizer and spring rolls, both of which were ok, but nothing to write home about. then stir me crazy chicken and the chicken curry for entrees, both of which were hugely disappointing in that they were very bland and tiny portions. this place is just like so much else in houston -- staying middle of the road in an attempt to appeal to as many people as possible while overpricing their food and doling out tiny portions. won't be going back anytime soon.ReplyDelete

I think it's over-priced too. Nice decor but for the price you should get waited on at least.ReplyDelete

My GP rang me this eve and began shouting at me ! I have complex PTSD and Dr's are one of my triggers due to historical abuse . I am baffled by the 3 GP'S I've seen recently in the same practice due to my own lovely GP being on sabbatical .
I have given them every guide line going and written detailed emails . They are referring me onto another heamotolgist and neurologist but obviously this will time . I asked if these could be emergency refferals and response was ' We'd all like to get what we want but life isn't like that ' I've asked them several times to please start treatment in the interim period and they are refusing despite my rapidly worsening neurological symptoms . I'm literally stumbling around in a stupor now , completely exhausted and now in shock after bring shouted at . I never raise my voice to them .
Has anyone complained about their GP or have any advice re how I should proceed .

The mission was joined by UrbEx Barrie's new favourite explorer chicks, faded_x, and OneDeadHero. A new explorer, LostintheWoods. Mr. Lost conducted himself most admirably. Much frivolity ensued with JuicyFruitKisses hamming-it-up for my camera.
The location proved somewhat challenging due to high road and pedestrian traffiic. Another challenge presented itself to our merry band inside - hobo-faeces (everywhere!). This building showed evidence of significant use by the unfortunate Barrie homeless.
Future Plans:
The Scotiabank announced on November 17, 2005 that it will redevelop the old post office site, at Collier and Owen streets. The new 22,000-square-foot, two-storey centre will offer a complete range of banking and financial services, as the bank consolidates Dunlop and Allandale branches and its commercial and investment services. Rezoning is currently underway to allow re-development to 'C1 / C2'.
Across the street where the remnants of the once beautiful Barrie Opera House now sits is the subject of another $ 6.8 million project. Parallax Investments intends to develop a three-storey office building attached to a five-storey parking garage. Annother major financial tenant is expected to be part of the new professional / financial commercial plan.
Some Notes on the proud history of postal service in Barrie:
The original Post Office was built in 1884 as was located on Dunlop Street at the present day Memorial Square. During the demolition of this beautiful structure in the early 1970's (?), a time capsule was discovered. The documents discovered was reprinted by by the Simcoe County Historical Association in 1979 and is titled "Historical Sketch of the Town of Barrie".
he document was prepared by the mayor at the time for the occasion of Laying the Memorial Stone of the new Post Office, Customs House and Post Office Inspector's offices, by Hon. Sir Hector Langevin, Minister of Public Works, Dominion of Canada, on Wednesday October 8th, 1884.
The Post Office moved to the new location sometime in the mid-1950's at 44 Collier Street. Due to a variety of issues, the office was moved again sometime in 2003 to its present location at the old 'Hasty-Mart' on 150 Collier Street. Happy & Safe Exploring to All.

I woke up this morning like every other morning. Showered. Blow dried my hair while watching The Today Show. Checked the weather. Forgot my umbrella. Stood at my closet staring into space. Couldn't find anything to wear. Then I remembered my new Hue Skinny leggings that I bought at Nordstroms. Wearing bottoms is half the battle!
A friend of mine suggested I try a pair of Hue Leggings since my other leggings look like they've been attacked by dogs. If clothes can make you a nicer person, these leggings can. Who knew you could be so comfortable! I'm sorry I ever complained about my old leggings and how they sometimes gave me camel toe. I can be such a whiner sometimes! Goodbye leggings with holes in them! Don't want to be looking like a homeless Jap! These new leggings are the perfect weight material that you still feel like you're wearing clothes, but you're not wearing thermal underwear. AND when you bend over, you can only kind of see your thong! This should never really be a problem since one major rule of leggings is that you top should always cover your butt. These leggings even have a bit of a lamé finish so they make your legs look extra sleek and nice! They run pretty long on me (says the girl who is 5'2") but I just roll them under a little so they hit at the ankle and don't bunch.
So now I'm sitting Indian style on my office chair, awaiting pizza Friday, thinking how thankful I am to be wearing an elastic waistband.

@RazorbackSB Falls to No. 4 Alabama in Series Opener
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Sophomore Jessica Harrison improved her hitting streak to seven games, but the University of Arkansas softball team came up short in the series opener against No. 4 Alabama, losing 9-1 Friday evening at Bogle Park. The Razorbacks (16-35, 1-21 SEC) will look to even up the series in game two Saturday night at 8 p.m. Saturday's game will be televised nationally on ESPNU.
After Alabama's first three batters of the game reached and tagged two runs on starter Grace Moll, Arkansas answered back in the bottom of the first. With two outs, Canfield singled up the middle to keep the inning alive. Canfield then stole second, her first of two swipes on the evening, and raced around to score as sophomore Jessica Harrison hustled out an infield single. Harrison's hit upped her season-long hitting streak to seven games and she has also recorded an RBI in six-straight contests. In the team's last six games overall, Harrison is responsible for nine RBIs while batting .571.
Arkansas cut Alabama's lead to 2-1 after one inning and Moll provided a 1-2-3 shutdown frame in the second to keep the momentum with the Razorbacks.
The turning point in the game came in the top of the third inning. With two runners on base for Alabama, two outs and a 1-2 count on the batter, the Tide's Leona Lafaele took the next pitch over the wall in left putting Alabama in front 5-1.
Canfield recorded her second hit of the game in the sixth inning, good for her 11th multi-hit game of the season. She also stole her second base of the game in the sixth, her fourth stolen base in the last five games.
Sophomore Sydney Wright – making her 43rd appearance of the season – entered in relief of Moll (1-8) in the fifth inning, closing out the game's final 2.2 innings while giving up just one hit and one unearned run.

Why I got back into collecting ColecoVision...
…It's all the Flashback's fault! Seriously!
Growing up, the ColecoVision was always "my system." It really was the video game machine that I grew up on and followed religiously. Sure, I had a 2600 before it and a C-64 and then an NES after it, but it was the system that would change a part of my life as an adult.
My "video game childhood" started out with the original Sears Tele-Games Pong which I received for Christmas in 1975, and then two years later Santa put a 2600 under the tree. I was only 7 at the time when the 2600 came out, and while I played it to death, I was still a bit too young to really appreciate games and how important they were about to become.
But then 1982 rolls around, I'm reading Electronic Games Magazine and news about the ColecoVision at CES is talked about and I was blown away. At this point in my life I was addicted to any stand-up game to hit the arcades but disappointed in the current home-version offerings. Seeing what the ColecoVision was going to bring home blew me away, and I had to get one!
The two childhood CV stories that I remember distinctly… First - I always knew where my parents hid my Christmas presents and one day after school I had discovered that they had bought the ColecoVision system, Expansion Module #1 and several games that were available. But it would be weeks before Christmas and I just couldn't wait. Knowing the exact schedule of when my parents would be coming home and how much time I had between getting back from school, I would go and take the ColecoVision, and very carefully remove it all out of the box, hook it up to the TV, play it as long as I possibly could, and then with enough time to reverse the process, put it all back into the box EXACTLY as it was before and put it right back to where it was "hidden." And of course I played off the "surprise" perfectly fine on Christmas day! To this day, my parents still have no idea I did this!
The second was when I had saved up all my allowance to buy Donkey Kong Jr. For whatever reason that game came out (at least where I lived) at a higher price than other ColecoVision games and while at the store wanting to buy it, my parents wouldn't let me due to the higher price. Thankfully, my parents didn't pay too close of attention, and one day I rode my bike down to Gemco (big box store in SoCal in the 80s) and happily used up my allowance to purchase the game. They never even noticed that I had bought it.
My collection of CV games as a kid included pretty much all the "common" games. I had all the arcade ports and many of the original games that came out up until the end, all the add-ons, controllers, etc. The only thing I never had growing up was Adam.
Fast forward through the next few years…
My gaming career went from ColecoVision to the Commodore 64 to NES/SNES, etc… But even through all those years, I had kept a ColecoVision plugged in, and it would always be a system I'd go back to.
I ended up working in the video games industry from 1989 - 2011, which is an entirely other story, but I got into the industry because I was a fan. During those first 10 or so years, I would go to flea markets and collect games. ColecoVision was always the system I looked out for the most. At one point I pretty much had collected just about everything that was out there at the time. I want to say I had really close to a complete collection of loose carts, most games CIB, and at this point I even had an Adam up and running. ColecoVision was still "my system."
At this point, I was also collecting stand-up arcade machines, and when I was living on the east coast I had about 40 machines in my game room and probably another 50 or so PCB's that I could plug into various machines. I spent a great deal of time restoring dedicated cabinet 80s arcade games. Here's a few pics of my "game room" (wish I had more and at better quality, but in those days, the smart phone didn't exist!)
In 2002 I took a job with Activision and had to move back to SoCal. At this point in my life, I had become jaded with the video games business based on a number of different things that had happened and I was totally disenchanted with the industry. It was no longer a "hobby" for me, but a "job."
I sold everything I had. Didn't even look back on it. Didn't really care and moved to SoCal totally empty-handed as far as any retro games went.
For the first couple of years at Activision, I didn't even look at retro games, even though I was working for the company that is one of the most iconic in the eyes of retro game fans.
One of my co-workers was selling off some of their old game machines, and one of the machines was a ColecoVision with a hand-full of games. I instantly flash backed to childhood and I just had to have it. I bought it, took it home, made sure it worked, loved it, but put it in a box, and there it would stay, for probably about another ten years.
In 2011 I finally got out of the video games business, focused on my theme park blog which I had been doing on the side for many years and moved to Orlando.
If I said I had totally gotten out of retro gaming over those years, that would be a lie. While I was no longer collecting physical hardware or game carts, I always had an emulator or two on my computer. And it almost always consisted of MAME, ColecoVision, and Atari. I would find myself going back to play my favorite ColecoVision games from time to time. When I worked for WayForward, I did have a Vectrex sitting on my desk with a Sean Kelly multi-game cart, but that was mostly for "show." In fact, when I moved to Orlando, I gave it away.
Orlando was a total fresh start for me. No more video games career, time to shift gears, have a different focus, move forward and not look back. And things have been going very well since. Still have the emulators on my laptop and would play from time to time, but I had pretty much forgotten about games and anything retro. I had not given up on games entirely though. I always had whatever the latest Nintendo system was and a few games, but nothing really interested me to be fanatical. We'd play Mario Party with groups of friends, I was slightly addicted to Animal Crossing and always had a handful of NES Virtual Console games, but that was about it.
And then the ColecoVision Flashback system came out…
I thought "What a cool idea… so many of my favorites as a kid all in one place, and easy to hook up to the TV!" (I totally understood the licensing aspects of games so I knew some games couldn't be included.)
Two things went through my mind while playing the system: 1. This just isn't good enough, it didn't *feel* right, and that right there sparked my interest in pulling the ColecoVision I had sitting in a box for ten years out and playing the real thing, and 2. WHAT ARE ALL THESE HOME-BREW GAMES!?!?!
When I had gotten out of collecting games around 2001, there really wasn't any home-brew (that I was aware of) out there for the system. At least not to the level that I was seeing on the Flashback system. I did some research and I simply could not believe that people were STILL MAKING GAMES for my childhood system keeping it alive! And not just tinkering around, home-brew games that looked like someone punched in some code from Compute! magazine, legit boxed games of arcade ports and original content that was just as good if not better than the original games that came out for the system 30 years ago.
I had to do a double take… "People are STILL making games for a system that hasn't seen a retail store shelf in 30 years???" This was something that I realized that I needed to be a part of! And all of a sudden, something I hadn't felt in 20 years was back… I was once again a "fan" of games instead of it being a "job."
As I played games like Circus Charlie, Buster Bros, and Girls Garden, I've just sat there thinking to myself "I honestly cannot believe I'm playing these games…on a COLECOVISION!!! WTF?!?!?"
I had known of sites like Digital Press and Atari Age, but hadn't really paid attention to them. Doing some searching around, it seemed like Atari Age was *the* community for ColecoVision fans and I registered. Seeing just how much I needed to get caught up on, I spent hours and hours neglecting my own business to read up on hundreds of threads (and I'm still getting caught up!)
Through the help of many of the forum members I have now collected over 100 of the home-brews that have been produced over the years and have re-collected many of the loose released carts. I have been totally blown away by this community since I found it and I haven't been this excited in anything game-related in years.
So that's my story… my introduction, etc… And if you read this whole damn thing then I'm even MORE impressed with this community! Looking forward to getting more caught up on the past and what the future of the system has in store!
Thank you for reading!
