Why?? !!

I should really get to bed but I'm still awake messing around with Words with Friends & the Google archives to find my first Usenet posting from over 10 years ago. Just think I could have been playing MW2 for the last 90mins but no I've wasted it reminiscing about the past. Doh !!

It's like reading an old book when I go back and read some of my old posts.
The internet is really bad at keeping history I'm glad Google have the Usenet archives but a shame that there is nothing on the internet from the Future Gamer or Daily Radar forums (consigned to the graveyards)

Anyhow I think I am beginning to ramble, I am off to bed now. I have a nice festive day tomorrow 'Eid ul Adha' so lots of food, family, friends & presents :)

....Good night ZZzzzzzzzz

On the one hand, it archives your every mistaken post, on the other, it preserves none of the great articles you want ot read :(

I cringe whenever I look at my old usenet posts. I try to pretend they never happened. But google doesn't let me get away with it.

I'm glad I stuck to Telnet MUDs until I joined the Southern Lord boards and then WOS. No trail.

For some unknown reason I was up until past midnight last night and the had to get up at 5.30am today. Idiot. I look forward to my afternoon nap. I get distracted by the inernet and GeoDefense far too easily and time flies by.

Fortunately I don't think Fidonet and various dodgy Amiga BBSs really have an archive.

I can't believe I didn't say a thing in that thread. What with Craster being so wrong.

I've used the same name (or slight variations of) "Pod" for so long, and I even get called it in the REAL WORLD :(

Paper trails galore.

You know they say "there's no such thing as a stupid question"? They were lying.

That thread is gold. Craster admits in his second post he's talking crap, then keeps at it for another few pages.
