A check for two dollars. Christmas present from my great aunt when I was ten years old. I wrote about the story and my brother read it at her funeral. Epitome of "thought that counts". Two dollars?

I remember Mosaic. Barely. I remember using it in a computer lab that had like four computers. Soon after I had a yahoo email address and I can still go back to those late 90's threads and read the trash talking across friends. I would not be friends with me today, if I met the me from then. I also remember the "guy" who sold the internet and convinced the recruiting company of 10,000+ employees that everyone was going to find new jobs and post their resumes online and no one believed (or understood) a word he was saying.
