How old were you when you started the Ledge? - Page 4

Serrart · #46 07-13-2005, 05:00 PM

I joined in 2003 when I was 31... I've just realized it was 2004 as written just above

so correction, I was 31 and a half.

I was 26. I think I joined to ask about AHI or something - it was for some kind of information. I wish I could go back and see how I introduced myself but it doesn't let you go back that far. This was my introduction to FM fandom and I've never looked back since.

I visited the old Ledge once around 1998 or 1999, but there was some problem registering and I didn't really get the old structure. I remember seeing some of the "Keeper" stuff and not understanding it. lol Glad I came back!

I haven't been as active as I used to be, but I still read (almost) everything. I'll be 21 in about a month...but it seems longer than five years.

Actually, I was wrong...it was Joshua15....wow.

I so remember that 100 reasons list. I wonder if anyone has it saved. That was great. And HAMMOCK!!!!!!!!!! was Calamity's, although I was a huge devotee of the HAMMOCK. I recall being the #1 psychotic hippie Lindsey fan. Mmm. Hippie picture posts. Those were the days. Remember when we started doing Keepers? Everyone was the Keeper of something? I believe I was the Keeper of Lindsey's Fro and the Keeper of Stevie's Silver Cocaine Spoon.

I probably have both the 100 reasons list and the keepers lists at home. I'll have to dig them up.

Anyways, I started on The Ledge at age 13 in 1997, but I've lurked for the past few years.

I started about two years ago, so I was 20.

What a great feeling it all is. [sigh]

Ha! I remember the GREEN CUP and HAMMOCK!

I joined before The Dance... must have been early '97... which would've made me about 26. When did the Ledge first go online? I definitely remember you, Janet and Hayley and a few others. I think I just posted as "Ken" back then.

Ali, I have the list you sent me of 100 REASONS WHY WE LOVE LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM. It says FOR YOUR EYES ONLY on it and you drew me the whispering penguin. You fash-mag-slag, you!

I so remember the green cup -- I think it was Hayley, Vi, etc.

I was on the old Ledge back when it started, and was probably 23 or so. However, I started coming here on a regular basis back in Jan. 2004, at the age of 29, after the FM newsgroup all but died.

BTW, how could anybody have been here 10 years when the Ledge has only been around since about 1997/1998? Timelines people, timelines. Actually, ten years ago, there were only two Mac websites (Cyberpenguin, now just known as the Penguin, and the Chain Gang, now the discography section of the Penguin), two Stevie websites, and one Lindsey website. The only place to talk about Fleetwood Mac was on alt.music.fleetwood-mac, and I started posting there in Oct. 1995. In fact, there are a few folks here who were there back then. The thing I love about the Ledge is that there really aren't any weirdos (JPN, Bill Gamelson, Stan, and, of course, the Nazis).

You only 22?!?!?!?!?!

I thought you were like late 40s early 50s.

Sorry Dave you just talk with some much knowledge.

Stephanie · #57 07-13-2005, 08:06 PM

I officially started a little over a year ago at age 28. But a lurked for an equally long time prior.

David, I'm not wearing my hip boots! At this rate, I'll need a new pair of shoes.

Keepers! Yeah! I was the keeper of Walk A Thin Line or I Know I'm Not Wrong, can't remember.. maybe I just want them both

And remember the Lipgloss pics? I had this cheap scanner back then and scanned all the pics from my tusk tourbook to enjoy.
Hammocks!

Oh I have it all wrapped up in it's envelope. I actually took it with me to the Dance AC show ( the one no one video taped...eek...) anyway, I didn't get it to him obviously.

I met so many great people. Back then, I had a little Ledgie group and we were so tight, that for my birthday and Christmas of 1998, I got so many cards and gifts, it was really amazing. I'll never forget that and I still have them all.
