    Do you remember when a massive nuclear explosion ripped the moon out of its orbit?

    I'll never forget where I was on that day.

    Washing dishes at a shitty chinese place, plotting how i'd ask out this adorably violent girl with a crazy hot body and a Lois Griffin nose.

    What is the NFL gonna do to commemorate? Maybe let the Colts win a game or something?

    I've never seen it.
    As for the thread title, I was at Fort Rucker, Alabama - it's about the time I got my first computer! I think I had Compuserve as my browser/provider but I'm not sure.

    I got Season 1 of that series on DVD a few years ago.

    I liked it as a kid, but it's painful to watch now. Almost as bad as original BSG.

    I watched the entire show through Netflix. Funny how they found those colorful uniforms during the second season. That and Tony was pulled off the night shift so he could be in on the action.

    Making a few people's cars Y2K compliant. That is no shit. I put some old points and condenser distributors back in 2 pickup trucks and a jeep. Irrational fear is such a good revenue generator.

    I don't remember exactly.

    But it was the 1 year Anniversary of Zel's mother's funeral...on her birthday, so I don't think we had much fun that day.

    Probably just like any other day, really.

    Geez, that did come off morbid.

    I meant our activities were just like a normal day....but sadder because of the anniversary.

    English....I barely speak it, motherfucker!

    September 13, 1999 was a Monday. Typical. These things always happen on a Monday.

    Would have been at school probably, year 11.
    Still think that Space 1999 could have a fantastic remake.

    Either fucking off in Quantico VA, as a young 2nd Lt, waiting for school to pick up, or just starting school, where the classroom had "state-of-the-art computers with 12 gig hard drives."

    Either way, driving up to DC on the weekends to pub crawl Adams-Morgan and try to find women to have sex with.
