I'm going to go ahead and claim the answer of sex so nobody can feel all witty by answering that.

    Well, Baylor is in the tank, so maybe you guys have a chance of being one of the better Big XII teams in Texas again...

    I don't think I love doing anything I'm terrible at. Come to think of it, I'm not terrible at anything. ;)

    I forgot which stage it is, but there's a jump I've never completed...

    I somewhat recently started playing these games again after getting the 'classic NES'...that's a hard game!

    I can't get past level 2 and keep going back to zelda.

    back in the day Nintendo Power made it look awesome, but that game was HARD.

    Actually I think the answer was that there was a guy on a platform that was a glitch. You walk back after seeing him and he goes away. Didn't know this as a kid.

    We tried to get one of those and never could find one. I'm not paying Ebay prices though...

    I think I got lucky and just happened to get one on the day it became available to order...just, for whatever reason I was thinking about one and was ready to make the purchase...but, they obviously didn't have the supply. I still haven't figured out why...they could have made double their profits if not more...if they only made more units.

    However, and I don't know how familiar with computers you are...but...you can now get these very small form factor computers which will sit next to your TV and plug into it's HMDI. There are Nintendo emulators out there (and Super NES, and the rest of them...arcade games...all of it) which you can download to your PC, and...if you actually own a physical copy of the game, my understanding is that it's perfectly legal to get a digital copy to run on this emulator.

    So, without a 'classic NES' you could get the same thing on a computer you buy for that custom purpose. It could be a little bit of legwork, but anybody could legally do it in order to reinstate their NES collection from days of old.

    I love singing and dancing, but can't say I'm the best at it. I do it anyway!

    I think I'm terrible at singing. But other people like hearing me sing. And I like doing it, sucking or not.

    Singing and dancing. Unless alcohol is involved, I will never sing or dance with an audience, but I put my headphones on and sing and dance around my house every single day.

    yep, that would be my answer too. Always that one shot that fools me into thinking I might get better

    Singing. I only do it when I am in my car alone and no other cars in the view, I check the blind spots too

    I'm terrible at sleeping and going to bed. I really like sleeping in the morning when I have to get up. I often just sit around during the day wishing I could take a nap, or say to myself that I will go to bed earlier, but I never do, I suck at bedtime and sleeping in general.

    Singing - I'm always shocked when I actually manage to hit the correct note, but, I'm reaching that blessed time of laugh where I rarely GAF :lol:
    Dancing - used to be okay but my co-ordination seems to have amnesia, these days- my mental self-image likes to think I'm THE dance hall queen... :smirk:
