Well, friends, here we are with the year winding down and I am feeling more than a little nostalgic when it comes to BBEST. I first posted on the Famous Boomer Forum thread on New Year's Day, 2008. I joined the next morning. I never dreamed I would be here today posting a feature on our team blog. I took a little journey back through time. The first day of that thread was 12 pages long. Today's first 12 pages took us to 7:30 AM. In my search for this Joony Toons guessing game, I was getting a bit weepy. Luckily, I hit pay dirt and the smiles settled in. Are you ready? Here we go on a wild little ride through...
