It would appear that my first post was about Mister Rogers.

If it weren't for the pictures, I'd have no proof it even happened. -- Steph L. in Natter
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.
DJ, you just use the "find" or "search" feature of your browser when you open the thread file. Since it's a file you have to download and use from your computer, there's no search feature like you would find on threads here on the board.
I had to go look. Looks like I delurked on Jan 2, 2003 in Buffy 2 here at the Phoenix. I still agree with me - the Mayor was a good villain. I know I found the board through a link in an article, but that's all I remember. I lurked for months before posting, and then I think I lurked again for a while.
I delurked Mar 22, 2004 quoting Jeff Goldblum...
"First there is the oohing and the aaahing and then there is the running and the screaming."
Pretty darned prescient considering the ensuing kerfuffle.
I can't believe it's been so long ago. I'm seriously boggled.
Can't imagine spending my online time anywhere else.
I just put the vote results up.
