Since the weather has gone back from the low 40s to the low 70s, I went to Free Geek to put in some hours this morning. The work benches were crowded with students, so I was assigned to move several pallets and stacks of monitors so that more pallets of monitors could be moved and shipped out. Took about 2/3 of an hour and left my back a little tired, but I more or less enjoyed it nonetheless. As I was leaving for home, I spotted a Jakks Atari 2600 joystick system, which I brought home (with permission of course). I was pleasantly surprised to find it fully functional, and spent a while playing Adventure, Asteroids, Missile Command etc. Ariel enjoyed it too, despite not being too good at any of the games.
