Thanks for the welcome, beats having to do an intro thread myself!  As I've made it clear with my first posts in the Fan club area, I'm an old school gamer. Musically I'm all over the place, liking all kinds of stuff from new age to death metal. I've been online since 1987, starting with a 400 baud modem. |

Welcome "Can't Think of a Name"!! Thanks! 400 baud....that's a blast from the past! Yep. Started off with that modem of my dad's with his computer setup, got my first real job at a courthouse (my former jobs as a teen at Wendy's and a dollar cinema didn't count) and graduated to a whopping 1200 baud modem with my first computer a year or two later (the 2400s were out by then but the 1200s were still being sold and were cheaper). Was on many a BBS back then and I'm still online decades later Yeah, I was a teen in high school during those years. Pretty much the best time for movies, music etc. You really don't feel the same about that stuff later, which is why, even though I don't think he's done an album in years, "Weird" Al Yankovic has amazed me, since you pretty much peak at music in your teens, then stuff sucks after that in general How he kept on listening to stuff decades later, much less parodied it as well is incredible. Online since '87? Wowzers! I didn't get my start as an online user until late 2000 thanks to DSL. I'm still got some ASCII drawings from '87 or '89. A couple of friends of mine had modems for their computers a couple of years before I got into it. I remember the magazine ads for the Commodore 64 saying some of the stuff it did was "electronic mail" and I had no idea what that meant
