Anne Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 There were some great posts "back in the day".... Remember waxing????????:lol: There was another one that I'd love to re-read about someone helping a friend who was giving birth, and the friend had a terrible doctor... Does that ring a bell?? Some of the details have escaped me... :glare: Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kate CA Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I discovered this little treasure this morning in a very short thread: http://web.archive.org/web/*/welltrainedmind.com Happy Reading! Hilarious! I remember that moving microphone! LOL I found my first post on the General Board from October of 2000. My oldest was only six! Crazy. Thanks for sharing this. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy in Australia Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Oh, I could just hug you: thank you! I loved reading some of those old posts from old friends!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colleen in NS Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 Bumping back up. This is a treasure trove to me because it contains so many conversations about teaching via homeschooling. We have them here aplenty, too, but it's fun for me to read homeschooling/teaching conversations from the past - I gain little bits of new insight.

Year Round Mom Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Cool, thanks! I just posted a link to one of these old messages for the toddler thread :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephanieZ Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Oohhh, fun times, those were. Wow, brings back memories. I found a post from Jan 2002 where I was telling someone to chill out & not be worried about being "behind". LOL, my oldest was 6 and I was already talking like an old pro. I always have been able to talk a good talk, lol. Can't believe it's been so many years. I found a post from 2000-2002ish where SWB was ancy to give birth. . . Wow, times change!

Old Dominion Heather Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Wow. I found one of mine from 2003, when we all caught chicken pox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in Neverland Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Can someone tell me how to search those old boards? I don't even know where to begin looking for old posts by me but I am pretty sure I remember my old board name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C_l_e_0..Q_c Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Wow. I found one of mine from 2003, when we all caught chicken pox. The oldest one I found from me was 2004. But I'm pretty sure I was there before that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C_l_e_0..Q_c Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 LOL! I just found one where I explain the binary system, *AND* I explain it wrong! :lol: :lol: I have no clue what I was drinking that day. I worked with computers for years and years and years. I used the binary system way back then. How could I have it wrong like that??? Oh my, talk about a humility lesson I just got... My error is forever on the web now...

KidsHappen Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Is this site glitchy for anyone else? I can't pull up a lot of dates before 2004 and any dates in early 2004 and all the ones I can pull up in 2004 before about August are the same board even though they have different dates. I can't move forward by hitting the new board link at the end of each current board and I can't read a lot of the individual posts. I am trying to find my first post but can't seem to do it. The first one I can find makes it obvious that I had already been posting for awhile. It is like the ones from when I started posting in about early 2003 until mid 2004 are not available and I can't read many of the ones I did post after that. I can only see the titles. I it kind of frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Kirk Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 The archives only show the boards as they appeared at the moment(s) archive.org (the Wayback Machine) took a "snapshot", which they appear to have done at irregular intervals. Meaning there are gaps of several months when the boards didn't get archived at all. If anyone runs across my post "We're trying to convince our children they don't live in a 24-hr fast-food restaurant," let me know, but I think it's gone.
