Have some Vodka LUSH

So we have another birthday to celebrate. That fun lovable stupid arcade game that stole more quarters from me than Radio Shack. Tetris. The game was created by Alexey Pajitnov a Russian programmer (explains the funny looking building) in 1984. An actual classic that came along after I did. wow.  We’ll Tetris is 25 today.

Pajitnov loved puzzles so it was only natural he would develop a puzzle based game. He got the name Tetris by combining the Tetromino, and Tennis. Both loves of Russia. I know I love some Russian Female Tennis players.  Tetris was first release for the IBM then in 1987 it was released for the rest of the world. When Tetris was released for Gameboy and then it was right to the moon. Tetris actually has a checkered history filled with lawsuits, even involving the Soviet Government.  Were not here to dig up the past.  Pajitnov is back in control and is more than happy with the success. He gets more enjoyment that people all over the world enjoys the game daily, than he does from his large sum checks I’m sure he also receives.

Well Happy Birthday Tetris, we’ll see which one reaches 225 first. Game on.

Can buy “adult films” and tobacco products but still can not legally purchase a fire arm, or liquor. Probably why we haven’t seen any Gameboy related attacks.

Nintendo’s GameBoy just celebrated it’s 20th birthday. (Applause).  Now I’m not sure about you, but I had more than enough time wasted on this hand held sensation.  I remember when it came out, and I have been in love with it ever since. Sure my Gray brick died years ago, but I still have it. Bought a smaller one, but just wasn’t the same.  I’ve grown up just as the gameboy has. Enter stage left: DS lite, and DSIware.  Hopefully after 20 years we’ll see some major innovations with the Nintendo line. and Happy Birthday Gameboy. You gave me more pleasure than any women ever has and you never complained.  I thank you.  and I love you. still.

Please come home. I miss you. <3
