So if you already know me, you realize how ridiculous this page is. I’m the guy that prefers to perform his magic behind the scenes, rather than be the front man in the show. Nonetheless, something’s I would like to have documented, but not necessarily on Facebook.
We will try to keep this as Arcade related as possible, but I can’t guarantee some family photos might not end up here as well.
If you want to be a playah, you need to dress the lifestyle. Since late 97, I’ve lived in a collection of gaming T-shirts as the majority of my daily wear. Unfortunately, shirts wear out, so without a picture, many are lost forever. That was until the picture collection below

Over the years I’ve been heavily criticized on my coffee consumption.
There was even a 12 V coffee maker inside the Basement Arcade van. We all know a gaming cup is required for consumption, so here are ones that have gone through the kitchen
The picture to the right is of Odd Todd by Todd Rosenberg, who has created a series of humorous Flash cartoons depicting the world of unemployment. His site got me through a period of unemployment of my own, years ago. Check out his book!
If you’re going to pursue arcade and pinball collecting as a hobby, your vehicle will be one of your most important assets. When I started collecting, it started with my 89 Volkswagen GTI and a trailer that I had originally built to tow around my Suzuki quadrunner. The combination of car and trailer built the majority of my early collection, but over the years we have graduated to larger trucks for bigger pulls. Eventually, the trailer had to grow as well.
My 89 GTI. This was my first new car and I’ve probably used it to hall 80% of my collection
Bigger vehicles equals bigger hauls, So in 2000, I bought a conversion van for those long hauls to auctions with all my friends.
The current truck of choice is my Mazda B 4000, and a trailer hitch. It’s sort of the best of both worlds as you can throw one in the bed or hitch the trailer for larger pick ups

Scanned info on Arcade Goodness
Back in late 2000, I was contacted by the Philadelphia daily news to participate in an article they were running on arcade games. Don’t really remember why they chose me, but perhaps it was because of my friend Seth Soffer who is also quoted in this article and included in the pictures. Interestingly enough, I know all the people on a personal level that are mentioned in this article … Guess it really is a small world
I've had the opportunity to contribute art to others projects
When Van Buren, contacted me years ago asking to use a picture I had placed on the web for her book Supercade, a visual history of the video game age 1971 to 1984, how could I say no? So that’s exactly what happened, on page 232, you’ll find a picture of my Ms. Pac-Man screen, now in print in Supercades awesome book. Since it’s printing, I’ve got to know Van as she dated a friend of mine for a few years and I also had the opportunity for her to sign my book.
