I have this simple computer game on my desktop that was originally designed to keep my nemesis/neighbor, Cornfed, out of my work files. Cornfed would naturally want to whack me over the head instead of himself. I didn't learn about passwords until a few years later. @meelWORM

A section on meelWORM/Mark Gillie and Chris Cromer's AGI Message Forum that I've been meaning to flesh out for the eighth chapter of Rhapsody. I won't be going into every little detail about Conrad Sheldon here. It could practically be a book of its own! https://t.co/VGhFaskYAP

Someone recently brought this surveillance camera footage from 2003 to my attention. It would appear as if I were walking into a seedy looking liquor store. I swear, I never touch the stuff. It must have been my doppelganger, Cornfed Shaledone!

The Big Con is free on Epic Superstore. This is the one where I got mixed up with a group of con artists trying to use my DNA to take over the world (or a small part of it anyway). I was understandably terrified. It was the first time I had left home too! https://t.co/I3OjSxwf2d

I'll be spending Thanksgiving with my cousin Chuck Loffer up in Antwerp again this year. For those that may not know, my cousin's a fairly trendy used car salesman. Trendy enough to have had his own web site at one time. https://t.co/Z3rMHCK9bg

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

I'll be in Antwerp this coming week visiting my super cool cousin Chuck Loffer. He's a car salesman specializing in classics and rare oddities. His business has sadly had some ups and downs over the years.

He doesn't currently have a web site, but his old one is archived online.

The next Indiana Jones movie looks like it might be interesting. Indiana Jones vs Zombies. Maybe they can bring back all the old villains in zombie form. Indiana Jones vs Dr. René Belloq, Mola Ram and Walter Donovan.

I snatched up Half Life while it was free this weekend. I never had a chance to play this Sierra game. My IBM 486 couldn't seem to handle its groundbreaking graphics. I think the intro cinematic still looks jaw dropping to this day! #HalfLife #Sierra

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

I had a chance to try out the brand new MS-DOS 9.0. It's... it's something else. It's like playing a Space Quest game where the narrator berates the player. Also, the pineapple pizza arrived cold! #DOS #MSDOS #TextBased

A reconstructed poster for my game. The original was lost in the great AGI cataclysm of 2004. #ConradBirthdayBash

I just received an invitation to pose nude in front of an art class. I don't know what to think right now. What should I even bring? Maybe some Sierra game boxes to place around the portrait area?

Oh, wait, this invitation is for Sheldon Conway. It was sent to the wrong address.

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

I was dusting out my old barn house when I stumbled onto a couple of floppy disks with my name on them. One of the floppies contains some of my original music compositions from March of 2003! This is a real blast from the past, guys! #Retro #Music #ConradOverchair

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

My IBM 486 is filled with these quirky little Windows 3.2 games. Potato Storm puts you in the shoes of a farmer being targeted by an onslaught of killer potatoes, Fun with Gophers is a whack-a-mole kind of game, and Barnyard Games has a bunch of fun games with barnyard animals!

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

@Lemm30 It's a bit more like Quantum Leap. Each episode takes place in a different time period.

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

Hicksville's 33 Cents Store has Halloween candy for 66% off. I had to pull out my Mickey Mouse calculator to figure that one out. I think it comes to about 12 cents.

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

I'm looking forward to the Sierra Classic so so much! It will be the first time LSL4 has been officially released!

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

It never sieges to amaze me the kind of things they have over in the Antwerp museum. The best we have here in Hicksville is a rock that Mark Twain may or may not have sat on at one time in his life.

[Conrad Sheldon @cshel23]

I sometimes get nostalgic for the olden days. I once got kidnapped by thugs who were impersonating Sierra On-Line employees. They promised me a copy of Laura Bow 3 if I went with them in their van. Their van looked more like an ice cream truck than a van. It smelled real bad too.

Preparing to crack the Coarsegold bank safe. I'm gonna be rich. Rich I tells ya!

...What do you mean this isn't that type of game? Oh, well. Can I still make a deposit to my account?
