Hi! This coming Saturday, November 2, I'll be participating in Extra Life. Extra Life is a 24 hour gaming (25 hours this year thanks to the time change) fundraiser to raise money for Children's Miracle Hospitals. I'm raising money for my local hospital, the Connecticut Children's Medical Center. To encourage donations, I'm doing a giveaway. For every $5 donated, you'll receive an entry. There will be a prize for everyone who chooses to take part in the giveaway. (I currently have 10 prizes & only 5 participants). (Winner of the drawing gets first choice, all the way down.)Here's a link to donate: www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.participant&participantID=352377Here are the current prizes (I'll add more if necessary): - Custom made 2600/7800 controller pad - Art of Atari - The Game Console - Pac Man Board Game - Space Invader Funko Pop - Q*Bert Funko Pop - Super Mario Bros silicone ice cube tray - Adventure 2600 cartridge journal - Asteroids 2600 cartridge journal - Missle Command 2600 cartridge journal In addition, I'm part of an Extra Life team that includes FERG!! I'm also planning on streaming my 25 hours. I'll post a link to my stream & my proposed schedule later in the week. Thank you in advance! Attachments:

Sorry Stormsurge. This completely slipped my mind ! (and also I’m skint !) No worries! Is "skint" similar to "minge"? (That's my all-time favorite UK slang term.)

Lol. I hope you don’t use ‘minge’ in casual conversation !
Skint (as I’m sure you know) means to have no money. I could have said I was ‘boracic’ (sounds like ’brassic’) which is a very common cockney rhyming term - boracic lint = skint !
I ran a slang website for 15 years so I could bore you to death !

No way, I find all that fascinating! I assumed that skint meant that & was correct. Fortunately (or more like unfortunately), I don't have many opportunities to sneak 'minge" into conversations. I just like to tell people it's one of my favorite words ever. So great! I learned from this show, which is so heartwarmingly awesome, I highly recommend it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NORplbqTLg

We love that series ! Always such funny scripts, but with some deep themes covered.
I think season two should come out soon no ?
