When I was a kid, my brother and I owned 2/86 computers with a Windows 3.1. Being used to the Classic Macs my dad had at his office, I remember being very impressed with it having a color screen.
My brother, and later I, played a game called Ports of Call. You acted as the owner of ships, and simultaneously as the captain of them all. The goal was to make money by shipping goods from one city to the next, and from strikes at the local harbor to cast aways you had to rescue and pirates, it really had everything. VGA graphics included.
Years later a young band calls themselves Port of Call, and I wonder if they know this awesome game. They're young, and very talented - and I've had the honor to shoot them a couple of times: At a band contest where they came in second (cons!), then at their own party @RougeRockrz, and finally as openers for From Autumn To Ashes.
As any decent artist, they know when it's time to take a break, so sadly I don't get to take pictures of the crossed axes for a while, but I'm sure they'll come back with even better material soon.
