Herbert Gilbert gets lost and drunk playing ten hours of Joust and drinking for days at 42 Ale House near Milwaukee

   Herbert Gilbert hasn't written much nor been seen in the offices of the Center Bear for some time and rumor has it he is hanging out in the gastropod 42 Ale House on a daily basis playing board games,drinking heavy, and playing video games.

This pub has free arcades and Herbert is reportedly spending time playing the classic game Joust for some eight hours at a time giving the owner and management at this place some fits annoyed to see this ugly dude there hogging up the arcades and not putting board games away he commands some tables. Herbert often claims to have invented this game and had his investment  stolen some years back and discovering a place where there is free Joust and an actual eighties arcade is like crack to this nerds brain. When one throws in a bunch of board games and high quality craft beer and decent bar food with an outdoor patio for smokes one wonders if Herbert will ever be seen outside the city limits of St Francis,Wisconsin

Herbert has cash though and an endowment and trust fund from his family through the years. Herbert can spend time here for years and luckily there are no video gambling machines at this place and he can play Pac Man and Joust to his heart's content.

Herbert is MIA and our editor Randolph Perkins is pissed as hell. As a publishing content with some seventy writers perhaps Herbert feels invisible, unloved,  and often frustrated putting out posts and never seeing them published at the Artificial Intellect blog. Admittedly Joust is really a addicting game and perhaps Asteroid is the classic game that is the hardest to quit once someones soul is soiled in total combat on that Ostrich and fighting them buzzards. Personally I love the Stork and in the free version at 42 Ale House one can just play a two person game and skip the ostrich in this fly by country game. If somebody sees Herbert stuck to the Stork in Joust or challenging and gambling people in Joust at 42 Ale House tell him to come home.
