The first Pinball game on a computer that I remember playing was Night Mission Pinball (1983) by Bruce Artwick. The combination of CGA and PC speaker looks (and sounds) truly awful now but playing it back then was a blast. Real pinball machines would cost money - and generally... show more

![The Tkachuk brothers and Connor Hellebuyck on the importance of representing Team USA... Hellebuyck: “Yeah, you know, it's one of those things, the more you say it, the more it shocks me [the U.S. had not won since 1980]. I know, as a kid, I always dreamed of watching those guys, and my big dream was to be like them one day and now, I'm in those shoes, and the next generation is looking up at us, and I want to be that role model. I want to be as good as I can on and off the ice for those kids, and I want them to know their dreams can come true. I was that young kid chasing a dream and you never know what tomorrow brings, and, you know, it can happen. Hard work, and smart work, and doing the right things. It does pay off. Matthew Tkachuk: “My dad was lucky enough to finish in four Olympics. The best he finished was a silver in Salt Lake. And he, you know, wouldn't have traded any of those experiences for that experience, he just had in Italy for us. Like, he — to him, to my mom, to my sister, to, you know, our wives, families, everything, like it was the most incredible time, probably anybody has ever had in the sport of hockey. So, we're so lucky for the support. We're so lucky for the support from our dad. I still talk to him daily about everything hockey, life-related, and I'm shocked he actually didn't cry to be honest with you, but he was very, very proud. Brady Tkachuk: “Yeah, I think that's the best part about our job is being able to be those role models, like Helle was saying, like the 1980 team, influenced so many players, then that 1996 World Cup team influenced our generation, and we — we even talked about it, that we had an opportunity in front of us that we could really impact the next generation of, you know, kids in the U.S., and, you know, a kid watching that game that never thought he would be playing hockey and ends up picking up a hockey stick and ends up being the next superstar in the NHL. So, we’re very fortunate and blessed to be in this position and to be a role model for kids.”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2026441535835775113/amplify_video_thumb/2026441467758104576/img/gSiOdH8QiAm4oyir.jpg)
![Gena Rowlands explains the reason why "A Woman Under the Influence" (1974, Cassavetes), which was first written as a play, was made into a movie: "Rowlands: John wrote it as a play. He said, “Hey, I wrote you a play.” And I said, “Great, let’s read it.” I read it and I said, “John, I couldn’t do this every night and twice on Wednesday and Saturday. I wouldn’t be able to last two weeks. I’d die.” It was a very hard play to do every night. And he said, “Don’t worry. Don’t even think about it, you’re right. I hadn’t thought of that.” He said, “Just forget it.” Then in about two weeks he said, “Okay. I solved the problem. I wrote a different play for you.” He said, “So you won’t have to carry all of it every night. I used the same characters but I enlarged different parts of the scenes.” He changed it generally to make it humanly possible. And I said, “Oh, that’s a miracle, let me see it.” And I read it and I said, “Listen, you must know a lot of strong actresses!” [laughs] I said, “I still wouldn’t be able to do it. This is really hard.” She has a nervous breakdown—there’s a lot of things that are hard emotionally to do. So he said, “Okay. I’m going to write it as a picture.” I said, “I think I can get through it once.” [laughs] “But I’m not making any guarantees.” He thought that was funny and then he wrote it thinking like an actor too instead of just a writer. I think he took that into consideration. And it is, of course, much easier to do a film when you’re doing an extremely emotional part than it is doing it onstage over and over especially. Interviewer: Do you consider that to be your most challenging role? Mabel? Rowlands: Well, yes, it was my favorite. I loved doing that. And it was challenging. Interviewer: Since John gave you so much freedom to do what you liked as a character, how would you go about finding them? Was it something that was instinctual for you, from the script? Rowlands: I read the script, you know, 50 times. And I thought about it. And then I did it.

Amouranth reveals she made $200 per hour working as a cosplay character at kids birthday parties “Before Twitch, I was running a character company for children’s birthday parties. You would dress up as a Disney character, and I also had girls who would work for me” “Then we would all go to parties and do events, and we would do Make A Wish Foundation stuff. We would do festivals around Houston. I got to be on a TLC show, The Little Couple. They had a birthday party and hired me to be there as the Snow Queen Elsa. It’s really cool” “It was pretty good money for a non-social media job. Now we all have our expectations of what’s good money, yeah, completely skewed, but back then it was like $200 an hour”
