Glad you found and and glad you stuck around. That might be how I first found Mac Forums the beginning of 2005. Got my first G4 and was searching for something.

Yea seriously. Ever since moving out here to CA I have never been to Taco Bell once. Heck, I didn't go that often back in NJ either.

I make my own Mexican food at home. After that it's hard to eat Taco Bell anymore! :D

We do have some very good mexican restaurants here in my city though.

My 2 year is approaching. Seems like I have been here forever. I think for me, Mac-Forums is like a home.

I remember I was searching Google for a problem I had in iChat. I couldn't find it, so I made an account here and asked the question. I don't remember if I had any replies, but I did fix my issue!

I'm glad I am a part of a place like MF, you guys are great.

Congrats on your 1 year mark Clay. Hope it's the first of many!

Cool. Pretty sure Google is how I found this place too, when looking for an answer to a problem I had back then.
I'm glad we don't have Taco Bell here.
Congrats on the one year.

A year eh? Glad I didn't drive you away. ;)

They certainly have enough corn in Nebraska to make a few tortillas!;)

And goats but I don't think goats are integral to tacos. :p
