We have an old first generation wii video game. I cleaned out the corroded batteries in the controllers and now mrs datlas and daughter #2 are going at it with wii table tennis.
I would rather go play space invaders. Or Galaga.

I just picked it cause you can still see part of the ISS in it. Pretty sure it's not Katrina.
3 days 'til the season starts. And I, for one, am just totally excited. 2020 has been so uneventful.

I was preparing to dispute this, checked Google Earth...and found out you are indeed correct. TIL.
Thank you.
You're still in Tennessee, though.

I don't know exactly where you live. I might be a little closer. My I-40 exit/mile marker is 378 (the Mississippi River being 0).
