Wow, Fen... check the date. That's from 2005!  I got halfway through it until I realized that it was talking about the Hayabusa mission having not yet happened and recalling the Epic Fail that it was before checking the date and realizing that's old hat.  Apophis is indeed coming, though.

Video games have completely screwed up my life.
I'm here in Seattle, which plays host to quite a bit of the action in a PC game called World in Conflict.
I was driving up US 99 on my way into Seattle when I started recognizing things... and not because I was here two years ago.
No, I was recognizing spawn locations, mission goals, buildings and structures (even the highway I was driving on! ) that I'd nuked, laser-bombed, shelled heavily with artillery, napalmed, and even gassed from WiC.
I drove through a whole mission map called "Dome", which features the King Dome (which was still here in 1989, when the game takes place), the surrounding neighborhood, US99 and the Port of Seattle docks on the other side of US99. Some of the buildings were actually still where they were in WiC's 1989 representation of the area.
Worst of all, I feel startlingly naked and vulnerable without a company of heavy tanks and AAA.

Yeah, then I ended up walking the streets on the "Space Needle" domination map and noting the differences between today and WiC/1989. Feels strange without the Soviet propaganda, but all the Starbucks signage seems eerily similar...
Unfortunately, because all of the WiC maps are dated, none of my on-site intel will be of any use in-game. 
Of course, I'd still rather that the rental car was an T80U because those smaller Russian tanks are so much easier to park than those American M1s.

So I hear RDT bought a new car. I won't say what, though. Would ruin the surprise.
Also, I'm heading back to PA for a day or two and there's a ton of people there that want to monopolize my time, like they're family and friends or something...

I just got this in my email, sorry if you guys have gotten it too, but it was so funny IMO.
THE SPOILED UNDER-30 CROWD!!!
If you are 30 or older you will think this is hilarious!!!!
When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears with their tedious diatribes about how hard things were when they were growing up; what with walking twenty-five miles to school every morning ... uphill BOTH ways yadda, yadda, yadda.
And I remember promising myself that when I grew up, there was no way I was going to lay a bunch of stuff like that on my kids about how hard I had it and how easy they've got it! But now that... I'm over the ripe old age of thirty, I can't help but look around and notice the youth of today.
You've got it so easy! I mean, compared to my childhood, you live in Utopia! And I hate to say it but you kids today don't know how good you've got it! I mean, when I was a kid we didn't have The Internet. If we wanted to know something, we had to go to the library and
look it up ourselves, in the card catalog!! There was no email!! We had to actually write
somebody a letter, with a pen! Then you had to walk all the way across the street and put it in the mailbox and it would take like a week to get there!
There were no MP3's or Napsters! You wanted to steal music, you had to hitchhike to the record store and shoplift it yourself! Or you had to wait around all day to tape it off the radio and the DJ would usually talk over the beginning of the song and screw it all up!
We didn't have fancy stuff like Call Waiting! If you were on the phone and somebody else called they got a busy signal, that’s it! And we didn't have fancy Caller ID Boxes either! When the phone rang, you had no idea who it was! It could be your school, your mom, your boss, your bookie, or a collections agent, you just didn't know!!! You had to pick it up and take your chances, mister!
We didn't have any fancy Sony Playstation video games with high-resolution 3-D graphics! We had the Atari 2600 with games like 'Space Invaders' and 'Asteroids'. Your guy was a little square! You actually had to use your imagination!! And there were no multiple levels or screens; it was just one screen forever! And you could never win. The game just kept getting harder and harder and faster and faster until you died! Just like LIFE!
When you went to the movie theater there no such thing as stadium seating! All the seats were the same height! If a tall guy or some lady with a hat sat in front of you and you couldn't see, you were just screwed!
Sure, we had cable television, but back then it was only like 15 channels and there was no on screen menu and no remote control! You had to use a little book called a TV Guide to find out what was on! You were screwed when it came to channel surfing! You had to get off your but and walk over to the TV to change the channel and there was no Cartoon Network either! You could only get cartoons on Saturday mornings. Do you hear what I'm saying!?! We had to wait ALL WEEK for cartoons, you spoiled little turds!
And we didn't have microwaves; if we wanted to heat something up we had to use the stove or go build a frigging fire. IMAGINE THAT!!! If we wanted popcorn, we had to use that stupid Jiffy Pop thing and shake it over the stove forever like an idiot.
That's exactly what I'm talking about! You kids today have got it too easy. You're spoiled. You guys wouldn't have lasted five minutes back in 1980!
Regards,
The over 30 Crowd

Um... considering that my dad didn't adopt modern technology until later... I had most of that inflicted on me while I was growing up.

we had a microwave, but it weighed about 50 pounds, had a dial to turn for both the power level AND the time, and was used by Fred Flinstone.
Pshaw, we had an air popper, not those fancy jiffy pops. I went on a quest to find an air popper and finally did about 4 months after I started looking. But zoom-ster can't stand the smell of popcorn, so I look at it and dream.

I thought I had forgotten Chuck Norris' name until he put it back and I realized that he had simply removed it from my mind just to demonstrate that he could.
