> Indeed. It's been almost a decade for me as well (although I had to remake my account?). Hi!

I came to this site back when I was a Junior in high school (2000). Someone in my class found one of the pages by way of Yahoo probably, and I decided to check out the site it came from. Back then I was known by the name Wedge Antilles.

Although I didn't post a ton in here (without my posts being deleted for good reason), I do remember a few of you fondly. Howard's Cushmans and hearing stories of the Rinkmeet and watching Sinbad movies. These are things I hold near and dear to my heart.

Sadly, I just disappeared and even now only stopped by the site in passing. Last time I was here was most likely over a year ago.

For anyone who remembers me, I am now married, own my own place, and have two very very beautiful daughters, Ava (3 years) and Natalie (2 months).

Sam, thanks for creating this site for me to hang around for a few years. It really helped me develop my thought process when writing on the internet. Even though I'm not here, I am on redvsblue.com. Being the video game nerd I've always been, the series caught my eye since it's based around a video game. That's where I've moved on to, but I do plan on paying my old homestead a visit more often.
