LOL -- Grumpy Old Man! (from the days when SNL made you laugh instead of groan)

When I was a boy, we didn't have these automatic-shmiggledeeschmatic html tag closers. If you wrote in double-sized red italics, everybody wrote in double-sized red italics, and they'd yell at you and push you in the snow and steal your shoes.

And we *liked* it.

Do you know that I didn't realize until last night that I could just paste a hot hyperlink without having to type in the code too?

How long's THAT been fixed?

You were the guy who always put the <font color="white"> tags in there, weren't you?

Back in the bare-knuckle days, we didn't have these fancy ones and zeroes to program with. We used the letter "o."

And we were thankful for it!

And usually they had it in Marque so it scrolled across the page. Very hard to read.
