	Historic Apolyton moments. Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Today, I have experienced an historic Apolyton moment when another Apolytoner expressed laughter at one of my jokes.

So what Apolyton historic moments of the past do you recall? Like an earth-shattering agreement between two Apolytoners who usually always disagreed?

An Apolytoner who changed his political views?


Or anything else that you remember that would be considered an historic Apolyton moment?

No -- see for yourself.

It's in the thread that I created, "What should we talk about?"

I once saw a triple cross post. Can't remember where though.

I don't think that qualifies as an historic Poly moment, Fun.

Historic Poly moments are like Black Saturday or the Chicago Xmas Poly meet game of Guess Which One is the Real Ming.

I once created a DL (Arthur Dent) and had a contest for posters to guess who the DL really was .

What were they -- I don't remember what was involved, or what happened.

Like Black Saturday for instance.

Why is this historic? There are several Apolytoners who have DL habits.

Going to Chicago, never occured to me when I signed onto Apolyton that I'd actually travel to meet people. I was playing golf with a guy here and I told him I was heading for Chicago to play golf with internet friends and I got a look like he thought I was one of those internet predators (or a future victim of internet predators).

The only thing that'll top that for me is flying down under to visit that aussies, too bad none of them seem like golf fanatics.

Ok -- it meets the thread's qualifications.

But you don't win any prize.

Did you win or lose?

In other words, were you the predator or the victim?

ACK!

I trust this thread will turn into a procession of "1970" registered members to laugh patronisingly at everyone else.

I was once on the end of an IP ban as collateral damage.

Hey Mr Fun, I see you're in Iowa, I must have driven right by you on my way. Des Moines? Iowa City? Davenport? I loved that area on the Mississippi just east of Davenport. All these houses right on the river with boats lining the shore, real nice.

I am in East Moline in Illinois now -- boarding temporarily for the summer with a friend in a spare bedroom while I work until I move to Charleston, Illinois for graduate school.

But yeah, I was born and raised in eastern Iowa -- the Dubuque area, actually. That city has some beautiful bluff areas along the river. Holy Cross my hometown, is only 25 miles west of Dubuque.

But four years ago, I moved down to Davenport, Iowa and never regretted it.

I had a chance to meet an Apolytoner, and missed the opportunity.

My registration date says Dec 1969, and so does yours. Maybe because of my time zone.

Yup, I changed the time-zone to check. Anyone with GMT-x sees Dec 1969, anyone with GMT+x sees Jan 1970.

How sad.

Damn, Dubuque sounds familiar from my trip. Is that a bit north of Davenport? I think I went through Moline but I can't remember now. I came through on 70 (or was it 80?) and there was a fairly large city on the Illinois side of the river but I can't remember what it was called. I'll have to look at a map
