• Return to Soc.Singles

    From Peter Thomas@21:1/5 to All on Tue Oct 16 23:00:26 2018
    Oh my gosh, this is still here. I can see why we're using moderation,
    though. s.s looks like nearly 100% bots.

    So, who here attended the ... 1994? 1995? [Fuzzy] DenverBoink. Would love
    to connect with you all again. It's been a while.

    Several decades of news for me; 3 kids and a lot of work later--it's been eventful!

    I "qualify" for soc.singles again, though...didn't know that was going to happen. Life is like a box of chocolates, and all that.

    recall what year it was now.

    things change.

    it's very quiet here these days. :) i didn't even know
    it was still working for quite a long time. rumor has it that
    various people from here now are on facebook but i've never
    done that so i couldn't say much about it.

    Probably for the best.

    I feel like we were both there and it was 1994, I'm pretty sure.

    I was on thefacebook, but have suspended that, at least for the present. I may go back again. I can be reached on Messenger. I also vaguely maintain Trillian, though when Yahoo went back behind their Walled Garden and AIM finally folded, that started to
    seem pointless. Google Hangouts work. As do Allo, Duo, Signal, WhatsApp, Kik, and others. I'm as connected as it's possible to be--and yet I still often feel disconnected. I'd better stop or I might just start crying. Meditation, man. It's good stuff.
    Good for what ails human beings. Time to go do some more.

    May you be at peace. Please keep in touch if you're willing.

    seems not too long ago to me, but i know i've
    forgotten a lot of things now.

    i used to have a yahoo messenger id, but that was a long
    time ago. not many people are into chat any more as the
    same is for e-mail. writing takes too much effort for them...
    *shrug*

    i've never been connected via much other than e-mail.
    we still don't have a cellphone or cable t.v. and as
    far as i've seen i'm not missing all that much.


    May you be at peace. Please keep in touch if you're willing.

    this e-mail address works. or you can bookmark the website
    and that also gives a contact address.

    www anthive dot commie.

    that keeps me plenty busy when i can get outside. :)
