mxbx Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 So here's what I was up to four years ago: I started the first job I actually enjoyed (delivering pizzas for a company called Me n Ed's). At the time, I was all about music. Indie rock and this really cute girl were about the only things I cared about. Um... I'll try to remember more of what happened at the time, and post it here. Anyway: what were you doing four years ago? And can you even begin to fathom running a web-site for four years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GendoTheGreat Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 I see you decided to start a new thread after all. Like I said in the other thread, four years ago I was barely scraping by. A couple of years later I had myself a desk job, so I went and bought lot's of neato sh*t using this stuff I had read about in a book, called "money". Now I live in relative comfort. Wonderful stuff, this "money". I highly recommend it. As far as a website goes; I wouldn't have the first clue as to how to get one started, let alone maintain it for any length of time.

Isis Kaldara Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Yeesh! I feel so YOUNG! 4 years ago, I was doing volunteer work at the North Jeffco Animal Clinic... In fact, I still am. I was into KOOL 105.1 which is the oldies station. It wasn't too long after that I started listening to country music. I was a fan of the older heroes like Batman, Superman, and Spiderman. I hate to admit this with everything I have but... *Takes a deep breath to relax.* I hated Japanese animetion with a passion. Ugh! I can't believe it. Anyway, I started my lessons with the piano, Tai Kwon Do, voice, guitar, marimba (sp?), soccer, and choir. I had a lot on my plate. I was also very stuck up and thought I was the Center of the Universe... I wasn't into computer games or anything like that. I'm done looking at my dark years now... Jeez... I realize now what a sad excuse for a human being I was... Well, I love me now! Tee hee hee... In fact, just the other day, I packed up at least 4/5 of my stuff in 17 boxes and gave it to Good Will. I feel much better about myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metallus Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Four years ago, I had just completed either my freshman or sophomore year of high school. I was probably reading about Grim Fandango for the first time, and thinking "What a dumb idea for a game...You're shooting yourself in the foot, LucasArts!". Oh yeah. I was also an AOL user back then, I think. I *might* have just dumped it by that point. Needless to say, I was not very skilled in the ways of the web back then, and I shied away from chat and messageboards in those days. I was a regular mixnmojo reader by that point, however, but just the news and features. I didn't start venturing into IRC territory until 2000.

Darth Eggplant Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 4 years ago I was a photolab technician spending hours sniffing film chemicals in an enclosed space (answers questions about my posts) and was having a great time seeing some of the stuff people take pictures of. Looking forward to seeing Robin Williams do the photolab stalker thing in the upcoming movie "1 hour photo" also was hanging out with musicians in their squalid recording studio, and hanging out with a guy who was so much like the Samoan lawyer in "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" that he should have sued them for life copy right infringement. and I can't remember much more than that, because four years ago I was traveling through bat country. I was not going to stop then, and am not going back there now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mxbx Posted July 19, 2002 Author Share Posted July 19, 2002 More things I did four years ago: Since it was my first summer after being out of high-school, naturally I went on my first epic quest. Dubbed 'Pre-Post-Apocalypse Journey #1', it started with a drive to Austin. It ended a few minutes later when my companions and I decided we didn't want to go to Austin. Rather, we wanted to do a bunch of boring crap. So 'Pre-Post-Apocalypse Journey #1' consisted of nothing more than going to 'parties' where people sat around in a house, watching tv and drinking. Of course, I was stumped at the time. But that stumping was nothing compared with the stumpage I'm experiencing right now. Here's what's stumping me: why am I about to click on 'submit reply'?

Darth Eggplant Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 mxbx those are airport calling numbers for sure. I am sure you will go somewhere. Always remeber this however that no matter where you go there you are, unless you are having an out of body experience which in that case that is a goat you are floating next to, and those two gentlemen over there are called Shepa's Sherpa's yes now return to your body and be at one with your self and go see Austin Powers which is kind of close maybe to Austin.
