Thank You Steam Deck

I have been a gamer as long as I have been able to form memories.  I have fuzzy recollections of Atari consoles sometime around the ages of 4 or 5 years old.  I can remember playing Castle Adventure on a terrible monochrome LCD screen "laptop" from the mid 80's that my father had brought home from work.  My parents got the NES console for my brother and I when we were 9 and 6 respectively.  This continued and was followed by every major console generation: SNES, Genesis, N64, PSX, PS2, Xbox, Xbox360 (Not to mention Gameboy, Game Gear, Gameboy Advance SP, DS, PC gaming).  Literally until I was 29 years old and became a father, gaming was my primary hobby with my brother, my friends through school, college, and even into early adulthood.  Being a father had a way of eating up all that free time... Now, don't get me wrong here. I wouldn't change a thing, but even as my kids grew older and began to find their way to video games as well, I had become a mentor.....
