- Mum told you never to piss in the wind, - accelerate your vehicle at a slower pace to conserve gas, - Back, B, Back, Start, Back, A, Back, Start at the Title-Screen on "Bubble Bobble" is the power-up Code... - Corona's with a thin slice of lemon in the bottle improves the taste.... etc

Adelheid Bernstein, a boss character from the King of Fighters series of video games, is pictured here on the left with sister Rose to the right...
What a lot of folks don't know is that both of the Bernstein children are girls. There's no apparent reason for Adelheid's androgenous look, but I think it could be debated that their father Rugal Bernstein, pictured here...
...might have hoped for a son to be his successor, and so raised Adelheid as a boy.
Useless trivia...gotta love it!

And on that note, some more useless info for you.
A rumor circulated for years that the character Poison, originally from the Final Fight series...was a MAN! Well, a transvestite to be more exact.
Have no fear...it was nothing but a baseless rumor. You see, back in the day, Nintendo had a some very strict policies in effect when it came to the subject matter of their games; naturally violence against women was a major no-no. As you can see here, Cody is giving Poison the ol' one-two punch in an uncensored version...
Poison's sex was "altered" for the stateside release of the game on the Super Nintendo, as you can see here in the far right image...
So I guess by those old standards, it was bad to beat the crap out of women, but it was perfectly okay to pummel those with an "alternative lifestyle". I wonder if Nintendo ever caught flack for "inciting" violence toward gay people?
Anyways, nope, Poison is as much a girl as video game characters can get. Here she is in her latest video game appearance (as far as I know) SNK vs Capcom -Chaos with great big Andore (or was it Hugo?) right behind her...
So there you have it folks...more useless trivia. I'm great at parties, let me tell you!

Hugo is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY to big! it's like fighting Juggernaut in Marvel Vs Capcom 2. More of an SNK and Tekken guy myself but I don't play games that much anymore because of me focusing on music. Speaking of which, time to add my pointless facts:
A Tetrachord is the first four notes of a scale.
The Altered Chord can also be known as the "Dimished Whole-tone Scale" due to the fact that the first "tetrachord" is half-whole diminshed scale and the second tetrachord is the whole-tone scale.
The Miles Davis album "Kind of Blue" was the best selling Jazz album of all time until just recently it was outsold by a Chris Botti album (jerkoff).
Dave Brubeck claims to have the first interracial band back during his time in the US Navy (someone find those dates for me).
Duke Ellington was able to keep his Jazz Orchestra going from the 1930s up until his death in the 1970s because even when the band wasn't making money, he payed his band members out of pocket.
The Duke Ellington/Billy Strayhorn tune "Harlem Airshaft" was written when Duke lived in an apartment building in Harlem and could hear everything his neighbors were doing through an airshaft.
When Paul Desmond interviewed Charlie Parker about how he was able to play the way he did, Parker revealed that he practiced 15 hours a day!
Arturo Sandoval and Paquito D'Rivera both got their starts in Cuba playing for Irakere lead by Chucho Valdes in the 1970s. Since that time, both have lead extraordinary careers most noteably, Arturo Sandoval holding the world record for being able to play the high C on the piano on his trumpet... and playing with Justin Timberlake at the Grammys.
Stan Getz is the most underrated Tenor Sax player ever!
Ok I think I've listed enough...

When making the next trip to "Burger King", go 10 - 15mins after they change from the Breakfast-Menu to the Lunch-Time-Menu where the burgers are at it's freshest... taste's alot better than other times (In my experience)
I believe it's called "Hungry Jacks" in Australia .

Ralf and Clark from King of Fighters are among the oldest individual characters in the whole SNK fighting game pantheon of characters. They made their first appearance in Ikari Warriors in 1986, which was basically SNK's answer to Contra. IW was actually very innovative for it's day, with joysticks that could be rotated so your character could shout in a complete 360 degree range of motion while still moving forward. A very underrated arcade classic. The other character who holds the oldest distinction with the men of Ikari is Athena, the Psycho Soldier, who was in a game called Princess Athena that came out in the same year. Kensou made his debut in PA's sequal, Psycho Soldiers, the next year.
So for all you KOF fans, buffs, and afficionados like myself and Lou, keep that in mind whenever you start to think that KOF started with the characters from Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting.
