The early days.....(of the lounge)

Pining for the fjords...
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

That's not that hard from here actually.

In the really really early days, CP was called CodeGuru. Ducks and runs.

Guess it was similar to that other Lounge we now have...[^]
I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

How to ask a questionI was wondering if that site was still active, haven't been there in a long time, forgot the name and didn't save the link.
Along with Antimatter and Dark Matter they've discovered the existence of Doesn't Matter which appears to have no effect on the universe whatsoever! Rich Tennant 5th Wave

Did the lounge then really go months between new threads, or'd a lot of posts get eaten when someone forgot to feed the hamsters on a long weekend. :doh:

I think that was dynamic for the internet speeds back then.

So here I was, sitting on the couch minding my own business, when suddenly I was 2 years old again! And then I turned 100! And everything went black, and suddenly I walked among dinosaurs and at the same time I watched flying cars coming by... And I thought to myself "who the heck is causing this disturbance...?" And I went to the lounge (first place I'm looking when stuff like that happens), and here you are. Well, a tyrannosaurus ripped my pants, so I'm sending you my bill for a new pair.
It's an OO world.

I haven't found a way to see my posts further back than last month, but I know they go back to 1999 at least. ;P

That's a while ago. It's kinda scary to think that I've been here since October 2000, though!
