The place looks like a strip club.

Ugh, Mr. Awesome is in that? I saw him on a segment of that Disinformation tv show and he is srsly totally tubular.

So is he parked beside a baseball diamond, a soccer field, or a cemetary?

I ate at Billy Mitchell's restaurant in South Florida over the weekend. It was ok - standard kind of wings and beer place. But this is what it looks like from outside. The least impressive facade ever. No windows! And that is the front door. The MAIN ENTRANCE. Jeez.

The picture is kind of giant and would mess up the board, so just click the link.

Ha!  that's awesome. There's a profile of Billy Mitchell in the latest Harper's, of all places.  It seems to suggest that either his relationship to the camera, or the filmmakers, or his own self-manufactured mythos, made him seem more villainous in the film than he really is.  It didn't suggest that he's actually above manipulating things to his advantage, but the author of the piece did not believe he cheated on the Donkey Kong video tape.

That movie is wonderful.  That movie and the novel Lucky Wander Boy are only beginning to chronicle the perfect moment in time that was the era of Classic. Video. Games.
