Pogo Stick Championships - Sean goes Down the Pool Stairs!








DOWN THE STAIRS!!


Pogo Stick Championships - Sean goes Around the Pool!








Around the pool! This course features the awkward position of the sun loungers, followed by a thin path around the pool. The ladder area is the crux as you have overgrown weeds and a smaller gap for maneuver! It's then a simple home stretch back to the safety of the basketball hoop!
Hambone and Sausage offer extra distraction throughout! Buttholes!


[Kings of the Coast 6] Bryan vs s34n - Bemera [S24] (PIU Fiesta EX)








Left Side: Bryan
Right Side: s34n
Winner: s34n

Kasey Carpentier ran the Pump It Up Fiesta EX Tournament. It was a standard double elimination bracket with a one song qualifier (Take Out S17). The pads weren't perfect so the tournament ran on perfect count rather than machine score. The tournament was a SINGLES/CRAZY tournament only with all songs only played on one side of the machine. You do not have to pass the song you pick, however, your perfect count must be higher then the other person.

25c Coney Island Mini Mechanical Fun Machine








Mini Fun machine we found at Coney Island, New York.... It's next to another small machine called 'Miss Coney Island'. They are worth 25 cents just to see!


Coney Island is a residential neighborhood, peninsula and beach on the Atlantic Ocean in southwestern Brooklyn, New York City. The site was formerly an outer barrier island, but became partially connected to the mainland by landfill. The residential portion of the peninsula is a community of 60,000 people in its western part, with Sea Gate to its west, Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach to its east, and Gravesend to the north.
Coney Island is well known as the site of amusement parks and a seaside resort. The attractions reached their peak during the first half of the 20th century, declining in popularity after World War II and years of neglect. In recent years, the area has seen the opening of MCU Park and has become home to the Brooklyn Cyclones minor league baseball team.

[NES] Super Mario Bros - Warpless Completed! (Score: 518550)








Bought a Nintendo and Mario (with Duck Hunt) recently from Savers. I felt I had to re-live the childhood dream and finishing Mario Warpless! (Not taking any world skip pipes!). After getting back to grips with the controls, it's finally done! LOL

Note: After finishing the first time, the princess lets you skip worlds on the title screen by pressing the B button. The game is harder the second time around as the enimes move slightly faster, elevators/lifts are smaller and Goombas are replaced with shelled Koopa-Like creatures. Nevertheless, I managed to finish it again on this harder difficulty! Time for Mario 3 next!


Super Mario Bros. (スーパーマリオブラザーズ Sūpā Mario Burazāzu?) is a 1985 platform video game developed by Nintendo, published for the Family Computer/Nintendo Entertainment System as a pseudo-sequel to the 1983 game Mario Bros. It is the first of the Super Mario series of games. In Super Mario Bros., the player controls Mario and in a two-player game, a second player controls Mario's brother Luigi as he travels through the Mushroom Kingdom in order to rescue Princess Toadstool from the antagonist Bowser.
The game has been highly influential, popularizing the side-scrolling genre. In 2005, IGN's poll named it as The Greatest Game Of All Time. The game also sold enormously well, and was the best-selling game of all time for approximately three decades, until Wii Sports took that title. The commercial success of Super Mario Bros. has caused it to be ported to almost every one of Nintendo's major gaming consoles. Nintendo released special red variants of the Wii and Nintendo DSi XL consoles in re-packaged, Mario-themed, limited edition bundles in late 2010 as part of the 25th anniversary of the game's release.

Driving Around the Ohio Countryside!








Driving through Ohio!

---

Ohio Listeni/oʊˈhaɪ.oʊ/ is a state in the Midwestern United States. Ohio is the 34th largest (by area), the 7th most populous, and the 10th most densely populated of the 50 United States. The state's capital and largest city is Columbus.
The name "Ohio" originated from Iroquois word ohi-yo', meaning "great river" or "large creek". The state, originally partitioned from the Northwest Territory, was admitted to the Union as the 17th state (and the first under the Northwest Ordinance) on March 1, 1803. Although there are conflicting narratives regarding the origin of the nickname, Ohio is historically known as the "Buckeye State" (relating to the Ohio buckeye tree) and Ohioans are also known as "Buckeyes".
The government of Ohio is composed of the executive branch, led by the Governor; the legislative branch, which comprises the Ohio General Assembly; and the judicial branch, which is led by the Supreme Court. Currently, Ohio occupies 16 seats in the United States House of Representatives. Ohio is known for its status as both a swing state and a bellwether in national elections.


White Castle, Columbus, OH (Food Tours)








So we visited White Castle in Columbus, Ohio for the second part of our food tours world tour. Here we bring you first hand on what Harold and Kumar were talking about! We destroyed the slider selection by ordering one of each and some extras! A lot of the locations had 24 hour dine-in, and many of those has huge glass barriers between the customers and the workers. Your food is delivered through tiny square doors within the glass, prison much!? Nevertheless, the food was amazing!

Website: http://www.whitecastle.com/

White Castle is an American regional fast food hamburger restaurant chain in the Midwestern United States and in the New York metropolitan area, generally credited as the first fast food chain. It is known for its small, square hamburgers. Sometimes referred to as "sliders", the burgers were priced at five cents until the 1940s, and remained at ten cents for years thereafter. For several years, when the original burgers sold for five cents, White Castle periodically ran promotional ads in local newspapers which contained coupons offering five burgers for ten cents, takeout only.

In-N-Out Burger, Las Vegas, NV (Food Tours)








Today we explore In-N-Out Burger in Las Vegas, Nevada. This is the location on Maryland close to Tropicana Ave. The menu is set pretty simple and traditional. There are also some secret items which are not listed, such as: Animal Fries, Grilled Cheese, 4x4, Protein Style, 3x3 etc.

Secret Menu!
http://www.in-n-out.com/menu/not-so-secret-menu.aspx


In-N-Out Burger is a regional chain of fast food restaurants with locations in five western states in United States. Founded in 1948 by Harry Snyder and his wife Esther, establishing the first In-N-Out burger in Baldwin Park, California, and headquartered in Irvine, In-N-Out Burger has slowly expanded outside Southern California into the rest of the state as well as into Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Texas. The current owner is Lynsi Torres, the only grandchild of the Snyders. As of February 2013, In-N-Out employed 18,000 staff and had 281 locations, with no location more than a day's drive from a regional distribution center. As the chain has expanded, it has opened several distribution centers in addition to its original Baldwin Park location.
Located in Phoenix, Arizona; Draper, Utah; and Dallas, Texas; these new distribution centers will provide for potential future expansion into other parts of the country. In-N-Out Burger has resisted franchising its operations or going public; one reason is the prospect of quality or customer consistency being compromised by excessively rapid business growth. The company's business practices have been noted for employee-centered personnel policies. For example, In-N-Out is one of the few fast food chains in the United States to pay its employees significantly more than state and federally mandated minimum wage guidelines -- starting at US $10.50 per hour in California, as of April 2013. The In-N-Out restaurant chain has developed a highly loyal customer base, and has been rated as one of the top fast food restaurants in several customer satisfaction surveys.
