Yeah, I remember - Mulan was some other Disney character, I believe. Possibly an Asian one, but I can't think of any off the top of my head.

Yup, It'll be waiting for you Sunday morning. I'm only going by sign up month and year, not month, day and year. Can ya wait that long?
It'll be tough, but I think I can hold out.

Mulan, maybe what you remember is posting on the CAS watercooler? I know I spent a fair amount of 9/11 there - found out that a couple of friends were still alive on that forum, so it was time well spent. (Unlike most of the time I've spent on actuarial chat sites since then.)

Into the past. If not, you have an issue.
I'm pretty sure that time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping, into the future.

And not the past.

Remember the site allowed anonymous posting for awhile. Also, the previous incarnation of the site was still up and active for a (very) limited amount of time early on.

I will accept a pin as long as I don't have to loosen or lose my belt.

I am a bower, I hope that helps.

Hey Tom. Can you hook a brother up with a ninja pin?




And congrats to everyone who made 5 years.

All of your IDs have received their pins. I've hooked you up, just this once!

It's not automatic, so all they have to do is ask or come forward.

Are you going to add a new wing onto the shrink stand, with the larger avatar size and all? Perhaps a TCBY
