yeah, but it was always crap because you'd shoot the near-1000 pound buffalo and only be strong enough to carry 100 damn pounds back to the wagon.  weakling!  (like i should talk, haha!)

i never said i could pull the full 1000 pounds!  and I did say "Like i should talk" because I probably couldn't even pull the 100.  But I want big strong men in my party!  Like crapbag and jesus!  They should be able to pull at least 100 each!

oh it was much more than a show my friend.  much more.  It was the best computer game in the history of computer games EVAR.  A 4th grade geography/history nerd's utopia of computer games.

i definately feel this thread turining into a walk down childhood nostalgia memory lane!  I'll start.  I wanted to be on Legends of the Hidden Temple too, plus Finders Keepers, Figure it Out, and GUTS.

Like the new name of the thread?? I don't ever remember Finders Keepers... but GUTS, yeah, that was another show I wanted to be on.  I woulda kicked everyone's asses.  The girls they had on that show were so wimpy.  They always got 3rd place in like all the games.  I coulda done better than that, I know it.  The announcer lady Moira... I loved her accent :P

Man I use to LOVE when Carmen Sandiago came on PBS. In 6th grade, we did a mock Carmen Sandiago show. I wanted to audition for the role of 'Nana Rap, but i didn't get there in time  :evil:
