Anyway, I will endeavor to find something worthy of a post over the next few days, but for now, please stick with me as I navigate this new life course for a little while

Even if you don't celebrate the holiday, have a safe and happy day if possible

Here's a couple of pics to show you why

Unfortunately, as expected, I won nothing in Las Vegas on the first pass-through, but will be giving it another try when I go back through on my way home.

I attended a friend's wedding in Laguna Beach on Saturday and figured I'd take a few extra days to catch-up on some personal interest stuff, which includes Las Vegas and Disneyland.

So, I'm in Anaheim, CA right now preparing for a long-overdue visit to Disneyland and the newer Disney California Adventure. I spent about 6 hours pre-cruising DL this afternoon to see what's changed in the 15 years since I was last here. Some of the attractions are as I remembered and others are horribly disappointing (the People Movers for one). The Pirates of the Carribean is closed right now also, so I'll be missing the superior California version of that classic ride.

I'll be posting lots more pics and write-ups when I get back, but for now, it's bed time.

The Indiana Jones pinball section of the site is on the list for some renovating now that I've got things coverted-over. The info is the same as the geocities page (with one update for Luc ) but I intend to go-through the info and update things in the near future too (for example, to reflect that Williams is no longer in the pinball business).

www.micsaund.com will be the entry-point with a blog discussing things such as pinball, arcade video games, computer games, building electronic project, technology news, etc. I've wanted a "general purpose" posting area for quite a while and it just did not fit-in with my dedicated Indiana Jones pinball site on Geocities (not to mention, they only gave me static HTML).

Which brings me to the actual pinball news! You will find my ex-geocities Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure page has moved with me and is available in the Game Links along the left side. Please update your sites, bookmarks, and tell your friends because I am going to delete the geocities site very soon!

Second in the "big news" department, you will notice that I have added a Pinball and Arcade Video forum to my site. The forums are linked from the blog and the IJ:TPA site for convenience. I am hoping that these forums can be put-to-use to help people with repairs, troubleshooting, buying and selling, and other pinball/video community stuff. Note that these forums are NOT just for IJ -- discuss ANY arcade machine and bring your friends! I decided to create the forums since I get quite a bit of e-mail on troubleshooting IJ machines from my IJ site and I figured that a 24/7 forum full of experts would be better than just little old me

So, welcome to micsaund.com, share the word, and enjoy!

Mike
