the cuppycake song...my favorite next to the dancing baby.

that nifty screensaver with the fish that you had to feed and take care of.

lycos and infoseek...and askjeeves! is that site even still around anymore?

my first or second email address (longest before i switched to gmail) was trippingonroses@comcast.net because my middle name is rose.

researching things my mom didn't want me to research...and also "researching" things i definitely had no business looking at

not that long ago, but when you had to be in college to join facebook. we learned how to join during my freshman orientation at florida state.

when you had to keep track of your own friends (online and otherwise) and didn't have facebook to do it for you!
oregon trail ftw! i loved that game...recently i played oregon trail on a projector screen in a room full of nerds at a sci fi convention..hands down one of the best moments of the night
