LOL!

Yakko (it's yakko, dammit!) wasn't Russ's sidekick. They don't even know each other. And although I know yakko, I would never say he's ANYBODY'S sidekick.

I liked the old handle, "Bitchslap" much better.

Most meorable Supersix moment? When his email ISP was banned due to neffing from others using free email accounts (was Yahoo, I believe?) and everyone thought he was personally banned.

Long tribute thread to his helpfulness ensued.

When everything was straightened out, came back with one of the earliest "Elite" statuses on this board. Even earlier than mine, I think.

It took you 3 days to register. Think of all the reposts and TOS violations that you allowed through in those 3 days. I demand blood.

If you mean 3 days to post in this thread (been registered since the Old Timers), well we've been busy eliminating many of what you want blood for

Once while visiting my brother I stopped in his shop to say hi to the man. He gave the tour of his shop and a cup of coffee that I can still remember the taste of.

Later I bought a combo from him and to this day I am sure he would help me out if I had a problem with it.. A class guy that was destined to move up in life.. I bet he is Mayor by now.

The Story Of CompuCheap
Long, long ago, on a far away world there existed a small band of valiant, yet far outnumbered Computer Warriors (actually, just one Geek) whose mission was a simple one: TO PROVIDE SUPPORT SO PROFOUND, SO MYSTICAL,THAT NO COMPUTER OWNER WOULD EVER AGAIN HAVE TO EXPERIENCE THE FRUSTRATION OF THE "PERPETUAL LOOP" (In olden days, they had "telephone" systems that kept instructing you to "press one" for an eternity. Anthropologists have actually found the skeletal remains of these hapless souls still clutching the "telephone"!)

It was a difficult mission, fraught with peril, for the evil and uncaring Computer Behemoth lurked on every street corner waiting to take advantage of a naive and unsuspecting populace. Yet this band of Warriors, uh, Geek, would not be swayed!

HOLY MOLY!

Man... I haven't seen some of these names in AGES!

JohnLee!!!, jonnyGURU (put down the screwdriver and step away from the computer...), SirFshAlot.... names I've not seen in so long and so many others (Harvey, Rio Rebel, Virge.... ) that I see, but not so often.

We need a Russ Celery report!

We need some H8Tank right-wing flame!!!

Were's Hippy? Yawmark? S/he DrPepNowhereshockblueJenny? (still working for NSA?)

So sad.... looking back before the AOL invasion of the 21st Century.

Went looking for Hippy's Pub a couple of times to no avail.

I look over at HardwareHotTalk (Compucheap... Russ's) everyone in a while, but I don't see old fellas.

Hope EVERYONE is doing well.... wouldn't it be cool to have a reunion of people (in real life) of those people who were here in '99 or earlier!?!??!

Sigh... fun to think about.

yakko is truly an original.

I miss the old days! I used to actually have time to post on message boards...

Hmmm.... me likes the idea! Of course I'd be acused of trying to turn ATOT into a religous forum!
