When you are looking for a Simpsons name to name your child, certain ones are easy to eliminate right away.

I know everyone knows Otto from the Simpsons, but we actually have 3 Ottos in our family lineage on both sides (German heritage).....

Worse than Otto, his middle name is going to be James (family lineage again), so now we have an OJ as well...

Good for you to get it past your wife. I tried naming the last boy "Hank"....that didn't get to much traction.

I actually really like having the parties and having people over. I tend to bump the thread just so people who don't come to the site a lot don't miss out and hanging with some really great people. Because I don't have that much of a chance to play in leagues I think its great when I get to hang with everyone.

The only thing that stresses me out are when machines break down at the party. I feel like I let people down. Esp if its a machine people were looking to play. Dave can attest to that. When he was over last MET was down. Broke my second drop target. I could tell he was bummed so I started fixing it. And I made it worse.


Looking forward to seeing you Saturday Ken.

I understand your feelings on this. But let me assure you, everyone I've ever talked to is blown away by your hospitality, and generosity. I mean come on, only bring a 6 pack? I heard people at the Milwaukee tourney Monday saying exactly that. We are lucky to have you in our pinball community.

I get off work at 7A Saturday, need to catch a nap til about 11 or 12. Can be there about 1P or so if you need a hand with any issues. I'm not the best with pinball machines but I am a very good troubleshooter.

Thanks Ken. Catch your nap. Your welcome anytime but by noon it will be all about cooking brats and hot dogs. So any unfinished projects will stay that way.

Looking forward to hanging with you and taking your dollars.

Don't feel bad if a game goes down. Flip the switch and let them play a different one. You are so generous with your time, games and house that no one will care. Hope the party goes as well as always.
