Wow, 10 years is quite an achievement. Back in 1996, I was in Grade 5, and had to do an big assignment on the Olympics, that's how I spent my July 1996! |

Major props to TBC for lasting ten years. |

... (In old man voice) Back when I was your age we didn't have Homestar Runner to entertain us. Well...we did. and it was quite popular. Heck, I got into the site when I was 10. Or 11. I can't remember. But that's not the point. |

Back in 1996, I was in Grade 5, and had to do an big assignment on the Olympics, that's how I spent my July 1996! I was in Atlanta that summer, as mentioned in my Stupid Coincedence Magazine article. TBC never emailed me back about what their jobs were that summer, in case I might have run into one of them. |

Pfft, I'll NEVER get THAT old, or at least I desperately hope not. I'm 22 and I still love stuff most people consider "for kids" and crack up at some of the stupidest, most random things imaginable. I guess it really helps that a lot of the people in my family (well okay, mostly just my mom and sister) have the same odd sense of humor I do... I can just blame it on them!

I actually remember the '96 summer games in Atlanta, which is funny because I'm not really a sports-or-Olympics type person. I think what made me remember was the mascot. All Olympic mascots are creepy, but Izzy the Whatisit gave me the jibblies. But yeah, 1996 was a good year. I was ten, and in those days kids didn't have cell phones or palm pilots or ipods. The closest thing we had were tamagotchi virtual pets that beeped every twenty minutes. Invariably, they were taken away by teacher and locked into a drawer until the end of the term... I'm feeling my age. But a very happy birthday to you, Homestar. May you have many more! |

And then at the end of term they opened the drawer to have their nostrils burned by the reeking stench of death I'd break out the bread and paintbrushes, but I don't really have anything else to say about H*R reaching double digits. Part of me hopes they'll sneak the Homeschool Winner into the background somewhere - not in a grand unveiling "Hi, I'm the Homeschool Winner" kind of way, just tucked away somewhere as an inside joke with the geeks such as us |

In the summer? ;P But to be fair, everybody had one at my YMCA day-camp that I went to. I had a Giga Cat. |
