    He's mildly amusing, but not enough to hold my interest.
    Well, if he can get through 25 pages of Faulkner without falling asleep that's a pretty good accomplishment.

    But you do have a point; it seems he's taken some inspiration from Faulkner, who was known for saying so little in so many words, most notably the time he wrote a 1,288 word long sentence in Absalom, Absalom!

    You hit the nail on the head with that one. So many words, so little meat to chew.

    Sometimes the sauce is the best part of the meal.

    At least, that's what your mom says.

    Flawless. There's no comeback on the planet that could top that witty tidbit. Good job!

    Pinball is of the most common black games to find sealed. So it might be hard to say that the huge black box sales are not affecting other sealed black box games.

    April 1st a 85+ VGA graded copy of Pinball sold for $301.50

    Yesterday an ungraded copy of Pinball sold for $1,025.00
