I’m convinced Mario is a hobo.
He wakes up everyday in the same clothes, runs around in sewers, and collects coins for a living.
At the end of the day, he uses the coins to buy mushrooms

Now, what happened to that 'pear aesthetic'? She was a prime example. Then just to put ten or fifteen pounds on her. Bea-u-tiful.
Anyways, I don't like that table design. Needs more horizontal space for your hands, and the corners should be beveled more. I would go further, and make vertical cuts on the player sides of each base, and add a thin 'plate' base, similar to the Die Hard type cab. Ultimately, though, I'd start from scratch, as it looks like that weird 'futuro' furniture in sci-fi movies of the 70s.

We're way off topic here, but I can't even find evidence of an urban legend that TAB had nicotine in it. It's had saccharin and aspartame in it at various times, I think maybe that's what you're thinking of.
For some reason when I think of TAB, I always picture chicks with big hair in neon colored workout gear and leg warmers drinking it. I guess that was kind of how it was marketed in the '80s.

Most of the pre-built cabinets are pretty pricey. I guess it's an extremely low volume item and labor intensive to build, you have to mark them up pretty high to have a hope of making reasonable profit. It's OK for someone with money to burn looking to outfit a gameroom or mancave, but I'd think anyone who's enough of an enthusiast to hang out here would probably be better served building their own. I'm thinking you could get parts, materials, tools, *and* a decent PC and still bring it in under $3,300.

Citing Wikipedia here (I know I know):
Quote:
Tab has been reformulated several times. It was initially sweetened with cyclamate. After the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a ban on cyclamate in 1969, saccharin was used. In 1977, the FDA moved to ban saccharin. The ban proposal was rejected by the U.S. Congress, but it did require that all products containing saccharin carry a warning label that saccharin may cause bladder cancer (a regulation eliminated in 2000). Further studies find no evidence that saccharin has yet caused an increase in bladder cancer.
Tab (soft drink). (2011, February 12). In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 03:49, February 18, 2011, from http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tab_(soft_drink)&oldid=413413227

I wonder if saccharin could cause ass cancer and that is how Farrah Fawcett contracted it.

I occasionally have something from a micro-brewer of some sort, and always in bottles. Wine is similar, in that I never shop at the regular grocery store for it (or anything, for that matter). That's US, though. I have no idea elsewhere.

I know you're just joking around, but cancer isn't something you can "contract" and it's not funny.

Water is essential - hence, filter it. (nt)
