Terminator 2 - Judgement Day DVD in my hot little hands months before it became available to the public.
Googling my name used to bring up a photo of me in an incredibly loud Hawaiian shirt holding up that disc in Scooter's backyard. (Sadly lost in one of the drive crashes.) Those were the days!
Of course, my #1 HTF memory has to be the awesome proposal that the aforementioned Peter Staddon and his crew helped me put together on the 2004 Hollywood Meet. I think those photos are still around here somewhere. . .

Jack, nice to see you posting in this thread. (Yeah, I miss the old .sig as well.) Anyway, just popped into the thread to say Hi, and that I'm very happy to see that you are still around these parts. Take care.

Jack Briggs! [cue Thus Spake Zarathustra] Good to see you're still around. When I was a 'shy' newbie here Jack was one of the first members (before he was given modlike powers) I was friendly with and we would chat by PM. The forum was a different place then, a little smaller, friendlier and the After Hours lounge was a loud, rowdy, profane place. Ron would regularly threaten to close it down. Aaah good times... [smiles whistfully]

Why thank you Heinz. I remember being a little too zany and irreverent here 8 years ago, to the point where one moderator (who couldn't stand me) sent me a PM warning that they were making plans to, quote "get rid of all forum comedians". I remember that message well because I started saying goodbye to everyone I knew here. But I somehow survived, and I haven't seen that mod here in years.
I feel naked without a signature screenshot.

Anyone else chuckle over Jack Brigg's default avatar showing a panel full of jacks?
I got here via Tannehill's DVD Resource page too. I was writing patent applications for Sony on various DVD related technology, primarily the audio side, and needed to see where the public state-of-the-art stood.

Yeah Dennis, Jack's default avatar is kind of amusing. I seem to recall from Jack's postings that he ventured into the world of high end audio (tube based IIRC) and was somewhat disenchanted with the process. (Sorry Jack if I am misrepresenting your experience.)

Aaron, your location says "The Land of Oranges, Mickey Mouse, and foreclosures". The CA one or the FL one?
It's sad that there are two such places now.
