What was your first thread in the Lounge about?

[Longgrain]

Quick, while the advanced surch feature is still up. Go back and find your first Lounge thread...

Here's mine, from Nov. 17 2004.

It wouldn't have been too hard too find anyways since I'm certain it was the only Lounge thread to ever contain the word anosmic in the title.

(Oh, RIGHT, It WAS!)

Want a Referendum for the 'Homo'/Marriage Amendment?

Edited on Wed Feb-02-05 10:45 PM by intrepid_wanderer




???
Am I the only one who wants one?

I think the debate and number of people that it would bring into democratic involvement would be ideal! And the outcome... I'd like a tallied account of whatever it would be.

If it goes wrong (in my eyes), we can correct it as we did the 18th...

Deep thoughts?

(Guess I am the only one... <sniffle sniffle... No replies in 15 minutes Awhhhh... )


didn't get a lot of responses.. but I liked the viepoints nonetheless

[terrya]

Well it says you posted that on Nov. 18 and you registered on Nov. 15 so you are probably right...

[RevolutionaryActs]

[Longgrain]

19. Here's the link to DU 1

http://www.democraticunderground.com/cgi-bin/duforum/duboard.cgi

I don't think you can do a search there tho...

[DrWeird]

23. Pretty controversial. Check it out.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=44347

[Longgrain]

27. Now that was a good first post...

I remember those days.

I was worried about those Ewoks too...

[DrWeird]

32. It makes me realize how bitter I've gotten over the years.

I used to be bitter and funny. Now I'm just bitter.

[fishnfla]

24. I think it was a survey on virginity

and loss thereof. Or it was about the Packers

[A-Schwarzenegger]

26. Please do not post things that annoy

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=175288

Please do not post things that annoy

me or upset me and those sort of things.
I am sick of tired of getting annoyed with
things around here. If you have a doubt about it
well figure it will bug me and don't do it. Please
also do not put things in a way that I do not
know what you getting at. If in doubt do not
do it. I don't have time to waste on a bunch of
annoying crap or things I don't understand and
those sort of things.

[ulysses]

28. this was probably it.

I posted asking for help in choosing a new one.

[ikojo]

31. My first post was about what type of music I like

and it was on July 14, 2003...I have been on DU since 2001 but primarily read the Top Ten Conservative Idiots on my PDA.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=21345#21370

and I was officially welcomed to DU by newyawker99 in the above mentioned thread...

Thank you NY99 for all you do to make new members feel welcomed! Seeing that welcome even now made me smile!

I'll look for my first thread....

[TroubleMan]

33. I pretty proud of my first thread in GD - over 235 responses

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=443058


My first lounge thread???.....eh...not so popular:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=181271

[JimmyJazz]

34. I thought I knew my first one, but I had to look. Here it is:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=1700387

[Longgrain]

35. Yeah, but you never answered your own question.

:P

[JimmyJazz]

37. Yes, I did - it's down further.

[Longgrain]

38. Missed it thanks...

...;-)

[Bok_Tukalo]

36. Mine. Appropriately, about the election.

Took me over two years of being here to do it, it seems

40. I invaded a Freeper Meeting one weekend, and came back with pictures

:D

[SarahB]

41. My first SarahBelle post...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=879209

I used to post under another name and decided to change it one very lousy week here when I would have much have rather have been doing something else at that point in time.

The archives aren't search-able by username before July 2003, and I don't remember my first post as populistmom, but you're welcome to look through it. I think there's a link somewhere to even older ones (going into 2002) if someone's got the link (I had it once, but lost it when my old computer crashed). :D

http://www.democraticunderground.com/cgi-bin/duforum/duboard.cgi?forum=DCForumID69&az=list&archive=yes

[Longgrain]

43. Wow, thanks SarahBelle for sharing.

I recognize your name, but yet I still don't know you...

Reading you first Lounge post really gave me some sort of feeling for Who you are...

:hi:

[SarahB]

46. I found my last populistmom post...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=877750

Wow, the archives are weird. Looking back on old DU stuff is like an almost obscure, twisted journal over the past year and my various thought processes. Freaky, but cool.

[qnr]

42. {sigh} amazing how many threads I was the last poster on, but here's mine

Programmers: Using any offbeat languages?

[achtung_circus]

44. Nothing too profound, but I like it.

<http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=1080064>

My question:
I'm looking for a quote, Google hasn't helped

Edited on Sat May-01-04 04:05 PM by achtung_circus
my brother, encyclopedia of Abraham Lincoln And JFK triva is stumped.

As best I can remeber it is by JFK, talks about being a liberal, how if caring for others, and a list of other communist-type activities makes him a liberal, then he is proud to be called a liberal.

On edit: is this the best place to post this?

The answer:
Robbien (1000+ posts)
As John F. Kennedy so aptly put it: “If by a liberal they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people—their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs…and their civil liberties—someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad…if that is what they mean by a liberal, then I’m proud to say that I’m a liberal.”

45. 3 guesses....

[Fridays Child]

48. The first one I remember was about "The Stand" and how we are the Boulder

people and the neocons, fr**pers, etc., are the Las Vegas people. And how finding DU was like finally making it to Boulder and safety.
