10th anniversary of the board

[.:.impossible]

How bout that? Ten years. So much has changed in ten years. It is always a trip to read my old posts. A twenty five year old kid trying to be so serious!

You were so much older then...

Thanks also to Jim. And to everyone who has pointed me in interesting directions I would never otherwise have thought to explore...

[Jim R]

Jim, great thanks.

Congratulations to Jim and thanks.

Thanks most of all to Jim

To be serious, I can't begin to calculate all the pleasure, stimulation, enlightenment, friendships, etc. that Jim and this place have given me over the years.

Thanks, Jim.

I totally concur. Thanks!

Thanks also to Jim.

It was nothing, really. All I did was start the thread.

Threads like this always remind me of members who left the board. I miss some of them.

Jim, great thanks.

It's veritable jungle of Jims here. Some more praiseworthy than others.

Time flys when you're having fun. (And when you're old.)

Been here since day one. Always felt right. Thanks Jim.

I guess I lurked for a month.

Been here for the entire ride so far. An earlier version of the board software noted membership numbers and I think I miss that. Not that member 40 is smarter than member 847.

It's been fun and informative. Thanks to all for making it so.

Might be able to put that back in. Let me do some searching.

Sorry I missed the big anniversary. Pretty amazing. I think about where I was 10 years ago and how much has changed in my life and it's... well, shocking. I still feel 25 inside but the grey hairs say otherwise.

Thanks to everyone who has stuck around and made this place still the best jazz hang on the web.

Turns out I've been here since April 13, 2003. So not QUITE the whole time, but pretty close. I remember back then...my kids were 10 and 8. Thanks for being a wonderful host, Jim.

You know, I can't remember the name of it, but I always felt kind of guilty about that one board we swooped down on in our "great diaspora".

[Big Beat Steve]

Came on sort of late (2006?), discovered org more or less at the same time as AAJ but after a spell of hanging out on both I found this site here much more pleasant, lively and informative ...

So I can only join in with the others ...

Thanks for the forum and for all the stimulating and informative discussions on matters music! Hope things will continue that way ...

Wasn't that a 'Great Day in Harlem' forum or something? It does not seem to exist anymore...

Joined it on the first (or second) day of the Exodus, along with three other forums. It took only a few days to decide which one to stick with

Like..uh, happy birthday dude.

Yep, it was the "Great Day in Harlem" board. I got the impression they weren't too happy with the invasion, even though their board was all but dead. It had a weird atmosphere.

What was I, member 137? 173? Took me a week to find out, but I was a newbie when the BNBB went down and none of you seemed to want and have me here

[BeBop]

With jungle gyms like this, no wonder it's a swingin' place.

We still don't!!

[Bright Moments]

[.:.impossible]

I am still impressed that Jim set this whole thing up so quickly and figured out all of the ins and outs of hosting an online community! Great work and thanks!
