Holy crap, LittleFish, I actually just logged in because I saw you posted.

I was a big big boarder back in the days of LittleFish...and Gunn!! I miss you, Gunn! <3

I remember laughing so hard I was crying in the old late night chat fests with ~FF~.

And hang on, when did you win the discus?

I come home and log in to see whats going on and see this amazing thread. I joined back when i was 16 and now im 21. Where has the time gone? I have always been so greatful to have this board to discuss theatre with intelligent people that have the same passion for it that I do. Nobody im close with gives a **** that Follies might be reviving etc. I feel like the old posters taught me so much and im sad to not see some of them around these days. Since I myself only go to NYC 3 times i loved reviews from Jay* or Margo coming in and enlightening me on topics I couldnt believe. Im happy that the board is still going strong. And i must say the memorable moments for me happen to be the times Chenzel would spam the board and watch people flip out or of course the crazy too darn hot lupwning (sp?) everyone. Good times

Wow. This thread just brought back some MEMORIES! I haven't posted regularly in quite a hot minute, but this board was good times back in the day. I'm an oldie too. One of those who "grew up" on the board. I remember loving MargoChanning's posts and my own correspondence with "her" while I was coming into my own as a performing artist. I can't believe how long it has been.

Bythesword - I have this memory of spork wars. Do you remember this?

Even though I've been around awhile I guess I haven't always been vocal. Life Happens. I do however remember reading a lot of the posters mentioned from a few years ago, as well as everyone I know today.

 

But I am definitely late to the party when I read remarks on Data Lounge of Namo's chest and who is meaner on here, Roxy, Pal Joey or Namo and a few more.

Nobody's really ever been mean to me save for a troll here and there... 

like Annie said, "I think I'm (still) gonna like it here"

does anyone recall how, at first, YouTube links (as well as any mention of that site) were verboten?

It was like saying "Niagra Falls!" in that old vaudeville routine.

I went thru all seven pages.  Some of the names bring back memories.  It's great to have board veterans like Dollypop and PalJoey still around.  Others tend to stay in the  background:  Reginald Tresillian and CapnHook come to mind.  My favorite will always be Margo....who is sorely missed by many.

I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Does anyone remember the poster Dollypop? I remember she/he used to post all the time back in the day.

Ah, the old days. Old timers (like us) and new kids on the block enamored with Wicked and obsessed with Hugh Jackman!
