3. Me too.
I started reading Buzzflash after the 2000 election, which led me here shortly after. I lurked until we lost again in '04.

30. I lurked from about May or June '01
The forums were so quiet then, I enjoyed reading them, but had little inclination to join. It was mainly LBN and the Top 10 Conservative Idiots for me.

In the aftermath of 9-11 and the upheaval, it seemed imperative to jump in.

And still does.

:hi: VelmaDee!

I sure hope he doesn't poop too much. :P

I miss a LOT about those days. But it's not PC to mention "the good ol' days" around here. We might offend all of those who joined after 2003. ;-)

Hell, half of my really good friends from the "old days" have been banned.

But on the bright side, so have about half of my enemies. :evilgrin:

All those other posts were by another Robb. Oddly enough, he was banned right before I joined, and Skinner let me use the name.

That guy. Man. What. A. Dingbat.

I was at the point of feeling like I was insane, then discovered this place somehow & found out I wasn't the only one who thought that the country was on the brink of disaster & my sanity was restored!! :bounce:

And then I found the KOEB & the rest is history. :loveya:
