The Back Parlor

Yeah, hello. I used to be a regular on Mr. Showbiz's "Back Parlor" room in like 1996. Was wondering if anyone here used to be on there. Some handles I remember were:

Kaycee, JW, Gambit, Rocket Scientist, Psychobabbler, Shells, Gloriana, etc

Paul- Do you still have the code and images for the vintage "showbizisdead" chat you hosted? Anyway I could get a copy. May stand it back up for nostalgia sake. If so, please mail to biffjo@gmail.com! Thanks!

:) You know, I was around 18-20 back in that time. Now I'm 30. I still have contact with AlexR (my mother) and Ranon, of course. It's nice to see others here. If you want to be in contact with either of them and don't already know how, let me know.

I wasn't in the Back Parlour very often, but I WAS quite frequently in Group Therapy and A Genteel Place. I often think back to those glory days...:) Back to the days when chat conversations began with something other than "A/S/L?" or "Wanna cyber?" or "Check out my web cam!!" I vaguely remember some of the names above, but the ones that stand out to me are Ghostrider, kiwi, Peach, KittyK24, Medusa, TheGrandKingScorpio, PracticalityIssue, Inept, OMG, I could probably come up with about 20 more. A lot of them went to www.netcentral.net when Mr. Showbiz went down, but most just fell off the face of the cyber world, it seemed...you know, got a life? :) Mr. Showbiz was definitely a unique community that I really miss. Thanks for bringing this all up again! I can't tell you how excited I was to google "Mr. Showbiz Group Therapy" and find you all here!!

Hi, Proof. I remember you. And Paul! You are all grown up! The kids are so cute.
I was Beach Bum then Beach on the Back Parlor when Mr. Showbiz had it. I really miss the old gang (prior to Papoose and Guess My Name).
Whatever happened to Farmer's Daughter and Chuck? How about the Senator and Buttons?
