Tales From Medical Hell Prt.2- The Not Much Quickerning

 

Another day of hospital life is winding it's way down. Fortunately being in my own room is a much more pleasant experience. Things look good and hopefully I won't require any surgery. I've spent the day on a medicinal trial and error course. This meant lots of napping between viewings of Aliens and Captain America. Not to mention hours of COPS and Golden Girls reruns.

The wife brought my recent purchase of the Netflix Optimus Primal and Rattrap 2 pack. At some point it's getting opened up and checked out. I don't know if it's genuine or just Stockholm syndrome, but the low sodium food was pretty good today. If this was a text message I'd use the shrugging guy emoji.

Bios- Captain America

Sometimes world-class threats require world-class power. That's when Captain America steps into his specially-built mech suit. Fast, made of same indestructible Vibranium alloy as his shield, and attuned to his perfect reflexes, only a Super Soldier like Captain America could control the awesome power of this battle suit. Plus, the vehicle mode is rugged and stealthy, giving him the drop on evildoers!

Captain America and the Avengers attract mode

Like many of you I'm excited for Avengers Endgame this weekend (tickets for Sunday morning woo!), which has me thinking back to the old Data East Captain America and the Avengers arcade game. I still remember the first time I played it. It was Halloween night in 1991. I was in the eight grade (same day as the Terminator 2 make up kit with horror robe *sigh*) and that night Mom took my brother and I to Pizza Hut and Fun Putt.

Fun Putt was a local amusement type place (the fun) with mini golf (that would be the putt), go-carts, batting cages, and an excellent arcade. It was there that I discovered the game and sunk a ton of quarters into it. Later the arcade at my local mall (my beloved Gold Mine Arcade... I'll morn ya till I jorn ya) got a machine which I put many quarters into as well. Later the home version came out and the local Blockbuster was all too happy to provide a copy for one great weekend. I hope it's on one of the upcoming Marvel Blast consoles from At Games, that'd be freaking amazing.
