So I found out that the auto-body shop where he has his arcade is right by a government records office that have to go to about once a month for work. I am definitely going to make a point to stop by there on a Saturday to get myself a fun pass :00hour

Deezy I bet you were just like this kid at his age :0074
Brother I saw this last night and it brought tears of joy and could not stop laughing. This kid is something else and I'm sure his dad is so proud and so very supportive. Great to see this and thanks for this wonderful story. Let us know when you make it there and tell Caine what a super kid he is.
Fucking awesome :0008 :toast:

I swung by Caine's arcade today. I was in the area for work, but it was in the middle of the day, so no Caine, but the arcade games were out for people to play!

Here's a shot:

When I saw you make the post about your car for some reason it jogged my memory about this story, still brings a smile to my face.

"Well the "C" could be for Cardboard
And the "A" could be for Arcade
But the "A" could also be for Auto Parts
Cause in his Pop's shop's where it's made
And the "I"'s gotta be for imagination
Of which this kid's got a lot
And the "N" oughta be for Noggin'
Where the idea first got thought...

But then the "E" (Oh yes the E!)
Oh yes the "E" (Oh yes the E!)
Well the "E"'s gotta be for Everybody
(That's you and me!)
Cause Everybody is who's invited
To come on down and play
If you've got the pluck to try your luck
Come on down to Caine's Arcade

Oh Caine's Arcade (Caine's Arcade!)
Oh Caine's Arcade (Caine's Arcade!)
It's the best cardboard arcade ever been made
(Ever made!)
So grab yourself a fun pass
And y'all come on down and play
If you've got the pluck to try your luck
Come on down to Caine's Arcade

Oh Caine's Arcade (Caine's Arcade!)
Oh Caine's Arcade (Caine's Arcade!)
It's the best cardboard arcade ever been made
(Ever made!)
Everybody is who's invited
To come on down and play
If you've got the pluck to try your luck
Come on down to Caine's Arcade"

So this kid is just amazing, imagination and cleverness are quite impressive. I just can't get one thing out of my mind and I delayed on posting about it but it won't go away. The calculators and the fun passes, obviously he is doing the square root of some number but how does that whole calculator/fun pass thing work and did he need to buy that many calculators?
