Does anyone remember the good ol days of Craigslist before your local police department learned about it? You could have 2 dozen guys over to your apartment to poz your neg hole in an afternoon without getting arrested for indecency.

i'm always late for the poz party :(

At the McDonald's I worked at in college, I remember my manager telling me that his friend worked for Hewlett Packard and that he told him that there would never be a CD drive that would run any faster than 4x because any faster and the CD would melt.


i guess this is why he was a McDonald manager.

Speaking of mp3s, remember when you could google "Index of:" followed by the name of the song you wanted, and more than likely you'd find somebody's music folder that included the desired song? IIRC Google got wise to that 5-ish years ago, maybe more.

It still works. I just tried looking for an album and found something uploaded on 29-Sep-2004.
