DDial, a blast from the past!

So I was cleaning out my closet when I was redoing my place and found an old disckette. I threw it on my computer desk to check it out later.

Finally, I took a peak and *Woooosh!* was instantly transported back in time circa 1992!

I was my old user log from when I was Co-SysOp on the Ddial "The Active Imagination".

What a blast it was reading through all of the accounts and names.

All the old get togethers in Pennypack Park, Franklin Mills Mall and downtown Philly.

Sigh.

What a richly diverse group of people! from just hanging out, to late night diner hopping. Man, there were some great times there.

So long ago...although I wouldn't entertain some people or situations now, that time period in my life is fondly remembered as a blast.

Through all of the people I met during "the ddial years" all have come and gone except for one. My Barby. Although we are 3 thousand miles from each other and our lives have gone different directions, its a nice feeling to know she is there and always will be.

So cheers *raises glass* here's to Helen's bonefires, smoking pot in the park (her kids almost catching her haha), water gun fights, hanging with Dani and that creepy Wiccan guy with the nuns at Denny's, the weird fun times at John's house with Dave and Chuck (RIP), New Hope with Catherine, Barb's basement, Honey's pan cokies, the river spot and Mark.

Life...what a cool thing.

Oh my god - I am finally catching up on all the blogging I missed because I can't get on your web page (so I do the blog link you gave me now).
I didn't see this until today (05Dec2006) and wow,...
What memories. I remember skipping rocks and Tori the dog; and I still think of you when I see hole-y shirts and smell patchouli :)
