I enjoyed that ride-a-thon in 2007. Even if it was a waste of time, I got sword in the stone pins and the ride-a-thon prizes!

Wow I missed a lot in the last couple of monthes I didn't play. I blame my computer. Man I wish I could've been on. The ironic thing is that now that I have a strong enough computer its closed. Ah whatcha gonna do? WHo needs addictions anyway?

Awww I remember all of those coming out.

Especially the quest machine. I remember I had about 10,000 left to go to get it and there was about 20 minutes until VMK closed, so one of my friends offered 10,000 for my green backwards hat. So then I did it and I finally was able to get the quest machine.
