Hmm, it appears that my first post was on December 1st 1999. It was widely ignored since it consisted of "ANGLE IS SUCK" followed by spam for my website of obscene vegetable photographs.
Ah yes. And we finally understood the vegetable porn when you revealed your true image on WX as a being with a human body and a large tomato for a head.
I started posting in Jan 2001, when I discovered there was a world of TT threads beyond Politics. I delurked pretty quickly, was ignored, returned later and got a light grilling from msbelle as to my intentions. She made me feel a little like I was dating her daughter.
I wanted to go to TT and search for my first post, but I couldn't find the TT archives. Or is that a premium thing?
The TT threads are archived here.
It would appear that my first post was about Mister Rogers.

I was really bummed when I found out that we lost Fred...that man was the best use of a Prebyterian Pastor ever!
Fear me -- I found it!
First post was Feb 11, 1999, regarding "Faith Hope and Trick" I didn't say anything particularly clever, but I professed my love for Mr. Trick. I thought that I hadn't lurked, but I guess I did. Heh.
The TT threads are archived here.
oh, sure, if I wanted to make it easy for myself :) I'd forgotten, thanks for the reminder.
Say, Agnes Bertiz alums, do you remember when we wanted to get Buffy mentioned on the tv folder header, and staged a mad posting campaign to get the post numbers up? Considering that it took the single Buffy thread several months to reach 4,000+/-, which was the cutoff at that point. Heh.
How do you search the archives?
I'm sorry. I can't respond to anything else right now because I'm lost in a storm of crazy Way-Back-Whenitude at TomW's mention of that grand and venerable name Dr. Satan. That's hardcore!
I'm re-reading Buffy 1 and somebody mentions that "in five years they 'll all be out on videotape" - I guess dvds weren't around yet.
