Superfly's Tenth Anniversary

Superfly · Tue May 11, 2010 11:24 am

I usually don't like to start self-gloss threads like this but.....

10 years ago today, I decided to join Airliners.net officially.
I had first learned about the site in 1998 when trying to find out how many Boeing 707s were still in service.
An Air Zimbabwe 707 came up in my Lycros or Alta Vista search with a link to www.airliners.net
My life has been downhill every since!

LOL!
Just kidding!

It has been a terrific 10 years and grateful for all of the wonderful members/friends I have made over the past 10 years.

Awesome members worth mentioning;

I wonder if that's the same hand he used to beat up those cops down in Florida.

In that Pinktop footage, he is playing my dream guitar.
A Gibson ES-335 / 345 with tobacco sunburst woodgrain, block inlay frets and trapezoid bridge.
I have that Pinktop bootleg on LP.

And you've bonded with some fellow Rush fans here as well.

10 years, over thirty thousand posts, and you still appear to be sane and rational. You still have retained a sense of humor. Not an easy thing to do on this site.

The fly was never sane... Anybody who has that many 8 tracks can't be sane. I thought I had a lot, then I met the fly. Oddly I knew of Superfly long before a.net. I knew him as "that black guy in So Wrong They're Right" which is a movie movie about 8 track collecting.

Quadraphonic was still new to me at the time and I left out s few important details. Plus I was really nervous being in a movie.
