Today is my 20 year anniversary at FR. I am making my first post of 20 years to thank Jim Rob and all my fellow FReepers for helping to maintain my sanity (such as it is) for the last 20 years. FR has always been my go-to source of news. After Rush, there is only FR. Thank you all. - NurdlyPeon.
I look forward to hearing from you again in 20 years
Congratulations!
Wow! I just checked mine. I’m right behind you. 8/6/04. Amazing!
Congrats NOOB! 20 years without a post, you must have extreme didcipline!
Oops, discipline
didcipline looks like a word
woulda rolled with it...
well I did make lots of replies, just no posts.
Oh, Ok. I’ve not started many threads myself.
Congrats.
Nothing much has changed since 2004.
In 2004 some hit songs were:
No White Flag by Dido
Hey, ya by Outkast
The First Cut is the Deepest by Sheryl Crowe
The top TV shows were:
CSI
American Idol
Desperate Housewives
In 2004, more than 90 percent of U.S. adults lived in households that had an operational landline phone - now it’s less than 30 percent.
About 1.3 million pay phones in 2004.
Song to celebrate:
No White Flag by Dido

Good stanza for us here:
I will go down with this ship
And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door.
I was going to say the same thing, NOOB. ;-)
Wait a minute. I’m coming up on my 24th anniversary in November. I forgot to celebrate my 20th! Darn.
Congrats to you.
Uh oh! Thanks for posting, makes me feel young. I don’t get called a noob very much, actually I don’t remember if I ever did.
Well done! Here’s to hopefully seeing a 2nd post in 2044!
Congratulations! I think I’m at about 4. Guess I’m shy!
Good deal! My FR anniversary will be 21 years in October. This is a great place for sure but I don’t post much either.
Just realized I missed my 25 th last September
Congratulations!
