So everyone seems happy with August 4th and Cafe Bravo on the Parade at Norwood - is everyone available for dinner, or is lunch the preferred option?

just need to find a nice woman who wants to watch cartoons/play sega on a saturday morning, while eating froot loops....

hmmm...
They dont exist, I settled for "tolerates me being a geek and finds my geekness occasionally useful". :D

I am winning her slowly over to the Geekside tho, we now own 3 cleaning Robots (1 about to be sold tho leaving a Neato XV-11 & iRobot Scooba 380) and she does use most of my gadgets despite being in need of major convincing to let me buy most of them. :p

I am having a lot of fun training our cute little 14 month old daughter in the ways of the geek; she loves gadgets like remotes, ipad, iphones and even knows how to start our Neato Robot off on its cleaning mission! :D

Ellen Page was on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson a few weeks  ago, and mentioned that she often looked in pawn shops for Sega Genesis  gear...

@djos,

I notice from your signature that you have a GBS-8220 scandoubler and flickerfixer, does this work well? I'm especially interested how it works in interlaced modes, have you been able to test these?
I havent been able to test most of the modes as my Miggy is still undergoing repairs (hoping some parts will show up today) but it seems to work ok with the limited testing i've run.

Later on i'll prolly install an Indivision ECS Scandoubler.

bit fickle are we mate? ;)
