This morning's email included, among other things, the second RSVP request for my 20 year high school reunion, which is coming up in early August. I really would like to attend, but it's a little far away and I decided before moving to Sweden that I specifically didn't want to return to the US for my first year living here because that's supposed to help with acclimating to a new country/culture.

It was a while before I tried the original arcade version and it didn't particularly impress me until I got a copy of the home game, which brings us to today's story.
