An ongoing thread in which I aim to re=post (each day, as much as I can manage.) an archive moment from 667's past, with the moment coming from any year of 667's vast history, but corresponding to the date on which I am posting.
Feel free to comment, join in, or just generally deride.

March 17th 2012And many happy returns! You have made a wonderful contribution to 667 since you joined us. As today is Pen's birthday here is (of course) Hermes with an old birthday thread for him, back when he was known as just F.D. asoue.proboards.com/thread/30603/happy-birthday

Really? It doesn't show up on the Birthdays page.
I wondered whether to wish Pen happy birthday this year, but he hasn't logged in since last September. Happy birthday, Pen, if you are watching.
Yes, he was Brazilian (and still is, I guess). He was 667's Chief Brazilian for some years, following Tiago's retirement.
I'm surprised I was already doing the HoB thing while Emma was around; I aLways thought I stepped into the gap when she left.
Welcome back, Tryina!

I want to note that 18/03/2019 (March 18th 2019) was one of the first almost compliments that Dante gave to a theory of mine. That's not at all why the octopi were vanishing from the region of Stain'd-by-the-Sea, and there'd been no sightings or evidence of anything like the Bombinating Beast around town for so many years that it had receded into myth until Hangfire discovered how to raise another one. But in isolation, "Bombinating Beasts eat octopi" is a reasonable premise.

Nice to meet you! Are you a new moderator here? I mean, since I left in December 2017. Yes, the story about how I became a moderator is very funny ... It's a shame I don't know the story, but I'm sure it's funny.

For example, apparently North America is politically divided into several kingdoms, so that the United States of America has never existed. But in TWW Snicket writes that Violet had a hive the shape of the state of Minnesota. So Beatrice is younger than Lemony? But in ATWQ, she is mentioned as being out in the field with Olaf. Wouldn't that make her the same age? This would make the Baudelaires contemporaries of Harry Potter. Awesome!! Those are some neat facts you bring up. On this day, Foxy was kind to me.
