It was a simpler time. Home Star Runner and Boylove websites on the clearnet.
Our family was legitimately the first in our town to get internet, i was about 14...In those days we got free "Pay Per View" modifying VCR tracking units, eaves dropping on the neighbors by splicing high gain TV antennas into cordless phone bases, cult horror movie rentals for 0.99$ with out a fram of CGI...Good times
