Anyway, believe it or not, there was a time before MySpace (I would call it B.M. to be cute, however I don't know if it would be taken in that manner, now that I look at the abbreviation).

I went on an archeological dig around the archives of these here internets and came across this little site...no, I won't divulge the secret yet.

Looking at all of these, I began to wonder when Tom came about. Seriously!



Oh, and here's the link to the Internet Archives of which I speak.
