I was out fishing with my dad when the wall fell. I remember people huddeled around one guy's car radio yelling for everyone around to drop their poles and come listen.

Alright! Internet porn-times ahoy! Just gotta wait another 5-ish years and we can start downloading those sweet, sweet internet nudies at a glacial 56k speed like all the other cool kids were doing instead of playing outdoors or making friends.

Also, a 386 in 1989 would have been a lot. I remember a 386 in the early 90's was around $1,000 and that was 1990's dollars!! Why, using the consumer price index that'd be what, $3,000 today!?

I was born about the same time as Ethan and I understood what was going on. I didn't fully appreciate it, but it was still pretty dramatic.

Daddy is gonna get his kneecaps busted

It is a Tuesday in November.

An old man lies on the floor in front of you, held up only by your consigliere. Numerous cuts and abrasions mar his flesh.

"Ah, Mr. Lyons," you say. "So nice of you to drop in."

Chuck's eyes rise to meet yours. "Ethan, son..." His terror and disappointment is evident in equal measure. "Th... that computer was... was for you, son."

"You still owe us some money, Dad." You spy a wrench on a worktable nearby. "And since my predecessor had an... unfortunate accident," you smile, "it falls to me to collect."

A) Make sure Chuck is never pretty again
B) Let him go, he's your dad after all, you know he's good for it
C) Put your wrench in the face's mouth and see if it makes him happy
