Previous Post Congratulations to everybody that keeps the board alive!! How many years now?? I wish you all the best for the new year Love, Yo

Actually, Don was either wrong or fibbing (which is far more likely given his chosen profession) when he said that line. Nostalgia translated is the 'ache to return home.'

After a long hiatus, that's what I've done the last few days; going back and reading in the archives the efforts of myself and many talented others who helped make my time in the Parodyverse so enjoyable. This place was a great source or creativity and camaraderie for me throughout the years. It's hard to think of a hobby that I had more passion for.

Of course, passion isn't always a good thing. I said and did a lot of stupid, childish things to people who did not deserve them. I behaved embarrassingly. Even now, years later, perusing the old posts and spotting threads where I was especially twattish, those self-inflicted 'old wounds' still sting.

To those people I maligned during my time here, I apologize. To everyone, I hope your lives are going well, and at least as entertaining as the ones we created here in this amazing world of art.
