4 Years ago - AH BBS
« on: September 09, 2008, 12:07:40 PM »
So I was curious a little and had a little free time to kill at work.  I decided to use the search button and dig up some threads from circa June-Nov 2004.  I tried to pick some more interesting threads that I dug through.  I found it interesting what some political thoughts were back then and what's in the headlines this election year.  The selection of threads I picked in no way were to sway a political argument one way or another.  I just find it interesting to go back and look at what people said and thought.

I find the "Sticker shock at the gas pump" interesting, seeing everyone complain then about paying $2.00 a gallon, I think we'd kill our mothers to get $2.00 a gallon again.

Btw, your link for that thread takes you to the 2nd page of the thread, not the beginning.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

I can't help but wonder how long it will be until someone links to a thread complaining about $4.00/gallon gas, saying, 'I think we'd kill our mothers to get $4.00 a gallon again'?

:D How many of you remember Jimmy Carter?
Gas went from 25-30 cents to $1.35 - $1.50 in his 4 years or between 4 and 5 hundred %.
The evil Bushmister has only had a slightly less than 100% increase in his 8 years.
