      …I used to skate for hours as a kid,get it.
      But OK,not when it was raining.

      • Yeah, the winters in Michigan were brutal. This was way before any indoor skateparks were opened in the area where I grew up. Computer games filled that void. Fuck the snow.

  • I love the segment at the end. A single cd-rom encyclopedia (60MB!) for a mere $300. Takes me back to telnet days.

  • Man, I was just playing the sequel to this on my NES a few days ago – Love that EA were the developers.

  • Damn,I used to watch that show as a kid. I have a near
    mint copy of that game sittin’ on top of my computer at
    home.

  • Dude’s comb over came a loooong way across his head.
