Jeff was also insanely good at video games. All the neighborhood kids, myself included, would enlist Jeff to come over after dinner to beat the hardest Mario and Mega Man levels. He’d get way into it, playing with his whole body, often shrieking at the top of his lungs, sometimes yanking the controller cable clean out of the Nintendo.

Jeff’s parent’s had a hot tub, which was a big deal in those days. I’d never seen a hot tub and didn’t know anything about them, so when Jeff showed me the big gurgling cauldron in the corner of his basement, it was kinda scary. I remember the air was heavy and sour with chlorine and it made my eyes burn. The tub seemed to me like a monster out of a Goosebumps book. But when Jeff and I would play down there, we'd line up our green army men on it, and pretty soon I got used to the tub and wasn’t afraid of it anymore.

Jeff had a basketball hoop in his driveway and he would climb up the pole and sit in the hoop with his butt hanging down in the net. He’d sit up there for hours. But that suited him and no one seemed to mind.

He was especially good at backyard games, and when the neighborhood kids would turn up to play capture the flag, there was Jeff, all tac’d out in face paint and camo, barking orders like a Navy Seal. His team always won.

Jeff’s favorite Ninja Turtle was Raph.

Thanks for the great childhood memories, Jeff.
