This topic used to pop up every now and again and Twitch of all things reminded me of it.  I was messing around on Twitch and got a notification that mgoace had a 2 hour stream tomorrow and every Saturday for forever.  While Ace became a controversial author those streams were a lot of fun.  Especially when former players hopped on and typed/told stories.

Also, The Knowledge telling us about alternate timelines.

I miss the days when people would stop and think about what would be best to say or do before they spoke or acted.

The days when people thought long term for goals before they impulsively acted for instant gratification.

When men liked and valued women and women liked and valued men.

When honesty and integrity were valued more than spin and egotistical bullshit.

When understanding and forgiveness were valued.

I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife, it's lonely out in space on such a timeless flight.

I miss (the username escapes me now) the excellent storyteller who married into a Korean family and documented it on the board here.  He's a good writer.

I miss when Brian used to write long form pieces, he's a good writer. I also miss when he wrote TWIS.

[secret pleasure] - I miss Kate Upton shaking her moneymakers.

I also miss being in my mid-50's. *sigh*

Boy, the way Glenn Miller played 
songs that made the hit parade
Guys like me we had it made
Those were the days
Didn't need no welfare state
everybody pulled his weight
gee our old LaSalle ran great
Those were the days
And you knew who you were then
girls were girls and men were men
Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again
People seemed to be content
fifty dollars paid the rent
freaks were in a circus tent
Those were the days
