Please! This is supposed to be a happy occasion. Let's not bicker and argue over who killed who.

Ohh!! How about we post our favorite quotes and include NA....

"Sir! This NA is no more. It is an Ex-NA"

"No it's not. It's just sleeping"

FYI, as mentioned in the Sooo thread, the board does not like it if you try to post using the word P-y-t-h-o-n. I'm sure other people have been having problems posting in this thread due to this glitch. (GD is on it.)

I'm sure NA is behind it and we must all hang her for a witch.

In the meanwhile, here is what I've been meaning to post for ages now:



I swear, when I first began using the internet in the fall of 1996, figuring out what a search engine was in GD's dorm room, looking at text only via 28.8k modem....

one of the first things I ever read was a webpage on the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow.




The internet has always been populated by Monty P. geeks. :snap:

The first "web page" I remember visiting (using mosaic) was a site in Germany with a strudel recipe.

I wish I still had that, strudel sounds good right now.

If we are going to discuss our early geekiness, I have to mention that the first modem I used was actually a cradle that you set the phone handset into. It was for direct connection to another computer. I think the thing was about 300 baud (no kiddies: there is no "K" after that number).

Something that looked like this:

Actually, we are not. I only posted that because it actually had to do with the OP.

Back in my day we invented dirt so we'd have something to play with.

Whoops. I've used that line before. Back in my day it was so long ago everything I said wasn't a repeat of something I'd already said.

And after the spanking, the oral sex.

We are no longer the knights who say 'Ni'. We are now the knights who say......NA!:D


And bring me a shrubbery.
