  1. 4:10 I'm lost in nostalgia. In the 70s, when I was going to high school, the local milk bar/smoke shop had room for one pinball machine, and our little gang used to hog it from 7:30am until almost 9am. Luckily, the school was a 2-minute walk. At first, they had some old thing, then they got the Kiss machine. And then came the Playboy machine. One morning I started playing (I think it was 20 cents for 3 games) and started getting free balls etc, and replays. At 10am I left, after having gotten to (if memory serves correct) 998975 or thereabouts. It clocked at a million. The sound when you scored a free ball is still in my head as clear as yesterday.
