Where did the time go?

When I first arrived here, I was browsing some of the boards here and there to see what it was all about.

Seriously, this site has been nothing short of amazing.
Among the early caps I was fortunate enough to see in 2005--

Hannah Storm and Maggie Rodriguez when they anchored what was the CBS Early Show
Robin Meade from the old Headline News studio
Campbell Brown on Today
Chris Jansing and Contessa Brown on MSNBC
Liz Claman did the mornings on CNBC
Of course, many of the babes from the Weather Channel are around--but never to be forgotten were the likes of Cheryl Lemke and Nicole Mitchell, to name a few.
Plus many others too numerous to recall off the top of my head, let alone searching for anything on YouTube

I would be remiss if I thank the moderators and others from past and present who have welcomed me here and since 2016, enjoy my periodic caps :mrgreen: .

Although my contributions as of late are few and far between, I am planning to peek every now and then (just as long as I have the time, mostly at night instead of the mornings as it was for me back in the day :mrgreen: .)

Thanks again, only time will tell whether I get to celebrate 20 or maybe 25 years (just make sure any advance announcements if the site plans to go dark so we know what to do :shades .)

Matt

When I first joined WWoW purely to look at American caps, I never thought I'd be here capping local stations in 2020.

Campbell Brown and Nicole Mitchell were two of my favorites way back when. Thanks for the last fifteen years.

I don't do much anymore and coronavirus ruined tv as did firings and changes, but found the original wwow in April 2004. It had opened February 2003. Most of the people running the board then left. Some remain but not many. Site moved here in August 04 as Epson photo site died and Ezboard became Yuku. Seen a lot of users come and go. I think the heyday might be over but what can one do. News is too partisan and it got boring following it. Shopping channels stale now. The excitement is not there. Now spanish channels in turmoil. But so be it. Enjoyed all 16 years here. Though a year after joining lost web 10 months. I just occasionally pass by anymore. Seen too much crap. So do not know where to begin but enjoyed this place at its peak.

I agree 100 percent with Brettfan, things are not the same like it was when I first arrived here.

For me and HSF to be one of the last few veteran members of this site, I find that to be very gratifying.

Just goes to show you, the more you appreciate things--even with the peaks and valleys, we are all better for it.

Thanks again for the kind words. :Thumb

Thanks bigzman. As with any website, people come and go plus the fact that things happen in life like death of family, job issues, and even own personal health.

Always appreciate those who have visited and participated to make this site what it is.

It's been 15 years already? Many sites showcasing the ladies on the News have come and gone. Nice to see this board thrive. :Victory

I'm a n00b at only 7 years here, but I can't believe it's been that long... It is a testament to the quality of both the folks that come here and the dedication of those who provide content, that you have managed to make me want to keep coming back - even in this age of COVID-19. I heartily agree with the sentiments of everyone that's previously posted, and hope that it'll be another 15 years for WWoW... thanks!

Like David Bowie used to sing, "Turn and face the strange changes."

Brigitte Quinn and Jennifer Westhoven brought me here a long time ago.

A shame that WWoW couldn't archive all the good stuff.

Happy Birthday folks!

We started at EZBoard in early 2003 and they let us keep extending ad free service into 2004 until they decided to end it.

So instead of them having ads on the forum and making money off us, we moved here and used the ad money to have our own site in August 2004.
