I live in the foothills, and we get terrible internet service. I'm lucky to get a steady 5k/sec, even though my PC has a 56k modem.

Yeah, my 'rents are pretty cool. They both have their own GBCs. They both have Pokemon Pinball, plus my mom has Pokemon Silver and Pokemon TCG GB, as well as several other games. She also has her own N64. My dad is "borrowing" my SNES, but he won't give it back. They also spend all day every day watching TV.

I always laugh when I read things complaining about kids watching too much TV and all the bad influences from it. My 'rents spend a whole lot more time watching TV and playing video games than I do. It reminds me of an episode of Sliders in which the bartender said "That's the problem with you kids today. You read too damn much and don't watch enough TV."
