Glad you found your copy of Donkey Kong 64! Er,don't get consumed by The Great Heap! It happened to me once and I was forced to fight dust bunnies with nothing more than a dust pan and a fox tail. Most harrowing journey ever,man!

Bing Image Mad Libz: After searching through the crap in my room, the amount of which could fill Glacier National Park twice over in paper alone, I finally found several things I was missing, one of them being my copy of Donkey Kong 64. How Jennifer Lopez and bridges enter into this, I have no idea, but Jlo can sleep under my bridge any time. I'll ... troll her socks off? I've been up since 7PM yesterday, shove your critiques of my writing.
Anyway, I was being literal when I said I did some Spring cleaning and found DK64. I also found OoT, my original Gameboy, my copy of Pokemon Pinball, a couple N64 memory cards, Metroid Prime: Hunters for DS, even a couple printouts from old K'Nex and Toy Story PC games, as well as a Carmen Sandiego "travel pass," my signed program from Blue Man Group when I saw them in Boston, and Fenway tickets from that same trip. Also, I have a shitload of EGMs, a Pac Man game (you drop tiny metal balls into a Pac Man mouth at the bottom you can move), and something called Brick Game: 9999 in 1 I got from going to some Muslim event that was similar to Easter, with our Syrian neighbors as a kid. By similar to Easter, I mean it was in Spring, there was a guy in a suit (though not a bunny suit, I forget what), and kids got gifts. No Game Boy Color or actual Game Boy games though, not that the latter would do much considering the battery acid in the thing has surfaced and solidified. Also found some of the missing parts to my CD packagings, mostly booklets and my 10,000 Days by Tool case, which I looked at for a few minutes, cause I actually never got the 3D effects going before. There's more I'm forgetting, but that's the gist; also been trying to organize things as I go.
I pretty much gave up after cleaning the first side of my room and a bit of my closet, partly because I was also being literal about being awake since 7PM yesterday, partly cause just looking at the pile of crap on the other side of my room is exhausting in and of itself. It's all in the corners, so I don't really see it when I walk in the room, but dear lord that's a lot of old paper and junk!
Oh right, the game. It's awesome from what I remember, really good-looking, fun to play, and jam-packed with content. I bought the expansion pack for N64 just to play it. In fact, the game's composer Grant Kirkhope, said that Donkey Kong 64 set a Guinness World Record for most collectibles in a game, in a recent let's play/interview. The man also set a world record of how much cheese can be put on a cracker in song form, which brings me to my first song of Just for Fun Friday
Now, the second
And finally, the reason God kills cats, homeless people, and brought extinction to the dinosaurs, according to the Almighty Word of old Family Guy episodes,
TGIF, I'm goin' to bed!
