Video game fans and Chicagoistas!

Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry is the latest to join the $10 billion video game bandwagon. On March 4, the venerable institution, which logged more than 1.3 million visitors last year, will launch "Game On," an exhibit that looks at the culture and technology of gaming from the colossal computers of the 1960s to today's home consoles.

Visitors can play more than 125 games (the exhibit includes no Mature-rated games; small kids will be present), as well as view exhibits on sound and music; how gaming differs in the United States, Europe and Japan, and video games' influence on movies, TV, sports and more. Chicago's role in the industry also will be highlighted, with looks at "Pac-Man" publisher Midway and Incredible Technologies' "Golden Tee Live 2005."

I want to know if they'll have the original Space Invaders available to play, as well as Centipede (with the roller ball) and maybe even Q-bert--those were my favorite arcade games to play at the mall.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

We can go worship the giant silver bean if you want.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I think the bean is closed for repairs.

They just don't make giant silver beans the way they used to.

I know. They want to buff out the seams for the metal pieces so that it looks like one giant piece of metal rather than pieces parts.

We could, however, go worship the dawgs.

Man, Chicago has all the good idols.

Well, that explains this quote.

"Satan (impatiently) to New Comer. The trouble with you Chicago people is, that you think you are the best people down here; whereas you are merely the most numerous." - Mark Twain
