Have You Ever Played the Atari?

If you're older than...oh, let's say 21, then murky images from your childhood should be bubbling to the surface of your consciousness right about now. 

Let's take a moment and reflect upon the time we spend with that dear machine...

You are now free to wonder what motivated this topic. See, I've just been on this Ataris kick recently (for those of you feeling confused, I'm talking about the band "The Ataris," but I couldn't say "I've just been on this The Ataris kick recently," because that sounds really stupid [end of parenthetical]). 

Listening to that band makes me feel like I'm 17 again, but in the good way. Not like "I'm angsty and selfish and living at home," but like, "I'm passionate and playful and innocently eager to get on with life." 

Nostalgic favorite from High School:

Hmmm. Barely missed the mark. But I looked them up on Wikipedia so that I wouldn't feel so culturally ignorant - did you know they have a new cd coming out this summer?
