Hello Duglis! Glad to see you posting here.
Amazingly, I am 50.
I too am on two blood pressure medications and cholesterol pills. I am now on inhalers for serious COPD and have to use those every four hours. My court date for disability comes on November 4th since I walk to the left with a cane, am dizzy and have a very crooked "gait" as my doctor calls it. Without my cane I would fall left and onto the ground. I also have a walker too but use that at home as it's a bit embarrassing.
In 2019 my blood pressure was over 200 and my doctor told me "you should be dead". I had to laugh as I was sitting in the office with my last doctor (not my new one who is a REAL DOCTOR) and looked him square in the eye when he told me that. "Well here I am I suppose" I said to him.
Anyway my health issues have kept me from releasing stuff for VPX for the last three months. Kind of sucks but that's how it goes. I AM working on more tables but these are a bit more complicated since they are super rare. I figure if I take my time and to it right no matter how slow they will come out nice
Yeah no matter how many times I TRY to leave VP is always finds me again and I love it. Randy Davis KNEW what he was doling when he made Visual Pinball.
Nice to see you're around. I remember numerous folks like Starman, Warrior, Kinsey, Plumb, Mr. Fixx, Destruk (who I believe is still at VPF) and quite a few others. Tiltjlp and I had a falling out years ago and I do miss him but I believe he is gone. Kinsey is gone as well. I don't know of any others who are gone really but I'm sure I missed a few. I've MET Russ Jensen (RIP), Plumb and Fixx in person.
I do miss the "ole days" as VP was in it's infancy but we had such terrible images to work with. Now a days folks just redraw it all as long as they have a decent photo they can use to reference from. It's kind of fun actually.
Look forward to seeing more posts from you. Nice to see you again.

Terrible!
