1/20/2001 - 8/10/2020 "Thank's For The Memories" ....

Skinner ... David. Thank You. Hey someone had to post this song tonight right.

"Don't touch the Butt" ha ... think there were like maybe 57,000 members here when I joined DU in 2005. I have no idea how many members now. Anybody got a count now? I really have no idea, but I do remember a lot of ups and downs on this site. And I will forever remember this site as my 'online sanctuary' with like minded people till the day I die whatever happens in our future. Seriously.

Soooooooo ..... especially for the 'old-timers' or whoever please post your favorite threads, memories, links, since this site was put up below in this post. Who remembers "Don't Touch The Butt" I think that was it right? ... Ha ... I'd have to look the rest up so many on my mind. I'm out. Biden 2020. Peace.

It feels like a really good friend is moving far, far away. And we don't know if we're ever going to see that friend again.

I guess we need to set up a rule.
Skinner must check in at least once a month. At least!

Remember when Arnold himself was on our shit list? Now he's part of the Resistance. How things have changed!

He used to post really cool creepy 'lizard' images .... he did it in his own artwork. And had a political slant. Very cool. Hmmm ...

learn and discuss current political events. It's the perfect place for a political animal who lives in the boonies, especially during hibernation season!

It's comforting to know there are so many others who need to do the same.

I wish you well in your future endeavors!

Back when I first came here I had a dial-up modem, and trying to read long threads was arduous because they would not download all the way and I ended up loading one post at a time. It took me nearly all night to read the saga of the animal his uncle saddled him with. But it was worth it.

Good times.
