I grew up nestled in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies, so I'll take the U.S. Rockies because I have visited them less often, and unfortunately was unable to make it to the WSBK round at Miller Motorsport Park way over in Utah, so will have to scoot through and hike the big mountain parks once a few other things fall into place.

Next choice is Winter Amusement:

A) Half-Life 2
or
B) Portal 2

alternate question for oldskool gamers

A) Pacman / Ms. Pacman / Jr. Pacman
or
B) Donkey Kong / Mario Bros. / Super Mario

:D

Pacman.

I find it strange to have to pick an A or B set and then choose A or B... but since I have never played half-life or portal I defnitely have to go with the second "old school" set!

Re: Rocky Mountains... definitely the Canadian ones, they are much more spectacular than the American ones (and much more interesting Geologically!)

Okay... next set of A or B's...

Star Trek

or

Star Wars

Star Wars! (the original 3, part IV, V and VI, not those I, II and III ones). Amazing when it came out (yes, I saw the original in 1977 with my dad!). My favorite has to be the Empire Strikes Back.

This is a very easy choice for me, has to be a book.

Whilst I am not a Luddite & do welcome new technology I think it would be a sad & poor world without books. I love collecting old books & often give them as presents.

So to continue the theme

Vinyl...........or.............CD

B&W of course! The latter is blasphemy!

While we are on the topic of great B&W movies, which line from Casablanca is more famous?

"Here's looking at you, kid"

or

"Play it again, Sam"

Of course the latter is a misquote as Ilsa never actually said it exactly that way in the movie. Nonetheless, it is widely believed it was by the majority of the public and it has become a legendary line.

"Here's looking at you, kid".

As HYPERR said, "Play it again, Sam" was never actually said in the movie, although when I first hear this I couldn't believe it myself. :D

GREAT PHOTOS!!!! hee heeeee...

I choose the Little Rascals by far.

You and Andrea can be Spanky and the girl on the piano, Darla(?). I'll take the Buckwheat role as homage to the original actor and Eddie Murphy, with a little Jeff Eming "Fro" wig throw in to make it all motocool.

Wrider, can be Alfalfa. We wouldnt want to leave anyone out :wink:

Next pick:

A) 2011 Honda Fury
or
B) 2011 Honda Goldwing

p.s. I watched some revived Star Trek TV Show DVDs and they were pretty good (philosophically interesting) but not as cool as the original Twilight Zone and Outer Limits shows which are awesome Black & White sci-fi genre).... so I would have to say for 1966 it is cooler than Star Wars in 1977 years later, but they are quite different movies).

Hmmm tough one for me (can I say neither? lol)

I'll go with the Fury. Saw one at the Ace Cafe and it truly is remarkable. Can't say I'd own a gold wing...

no question SWIMMING its HOT out..... I will own a Gold wing someday wont be a newer one though. Since the day I rode the first time I decided that when my sport bike days are done I will sell them and get a wing.
