Here are a few things I remember when ALABAMA CHAT was the #1 Group on Datehookup.
What other things do you remember from days gone by?
We were so addicted to hanging out together that we would sacrifice sleep just to post with friends!

We got so carried away with Flirting, Cutting Up and Zinging each other that sometimes we ended up in DH Jail. Oops...

We posted to earn Stars... and our Friends helped us post so we wouldn't get the "Bumping" Warning!

We had LURKERS who came into our group, just to see What We Would Do and Say! We were the ORIGINAL REALITY SHOW!
   
We laughed until we Cried, then Cried until we Laughed! We were Never Alone! There was Always someone to Chat with!

We made Friends who became Family...

The ALABAMA CHAT Goat was found every where...

Every Morning, we wished our Friends/Family Good Morning! Every Night, We said, Good Night!
     
Let's make ALABAMA CHAT the #1 Group on DH, again!

I remember when cable and satellite TV got so popular that people forgot they could still get free TV with an outside antenna. It is important to remember that digital signals require a 'reasonable clear line of sight signal path', meaning few to no obstructions between the transmitting tower and receiving antenna. If you have a clear signal path, simply connect your antenna directly to your Digital TV. Older Analog TV's will require an Analog-to-Digital Signal Converter Box located between the antenna and TV.
I Do Not pay for TV.
I am currently using an old Rabbit Ear Antenna mounted on a 30 ft. stationary pole, an analog-to-digital converter box, and an old analog big screen TV. LOL. I receive 18 channels which include: ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, BOUNCE, ME TV, THIS TV, WB, COUNTRY MUSIC, WEATHER STATION, GA & FL PUBLIC BROADCAST.
Good luck connecting your antenna and saving Your Money.

Budman, I don't have cable or satellite. I get NO channels and am forced to watch DVD's! I love fishing and working in the yard, so far... I have survived. If you lived closer you could help me with my antennae. 
OT: (On Topic) I remember when... we stood in the rain and our family yelled turn it to the LEFT, the LEFT! Then... turn it just a little to the RIGHT, the RIGHT... Hold it... Hold it... *Silence* (They were watching TV, while I stood in the rain holding the antennae in place!

I remember when we only had 2 channels on the tv, and then we got a third one. The tv went off at 1 or 2 am with the Star Spangled Banner. I remember the Porter Wagoner show on Saturdays with Dolly Parton. My Grandmother, would tell us children to shut up, yes that right shut up, Dolly was going to sing. Roy Rogers on Saturday mornings. It was hard to get up early during the week to go to school, but I could get up on Saturdays, to watch tv.

... my sisters and I had tickets to Wrestling in Birmingham. Hulk Hogan was there with his partner Bull Dog.
It was pouring down rain and by the time we got a parking space they had the Red Light on, which means NO ONE may enter in, cause cameras are rolling.
I threw a fit, because we bought tickets. Hulk Hogan (Terry Bolleo), asked me, "What is the problem?" My Sisters screamed and hugged him. I explained that we had tickets and they wouldn't let us in.
He picked me up and said, "They are with me! After I get seated, they will bring your sisters in."
I didn't know it was LIVE, until I got home and my Daddy said, "Where have you been?" I said, "Out for pizza and shopping."
Daddy said, "Well, I was sitting here watching TV and guess who I seen with my Hero? My OWN Daughter! In the arms of Hulk Hogan! I got it on tape! Would you like to see it?"
Recently, Daddy was put in the Nursing Home and my FAMOUS VHS Tape of me and Hulk Hogan was brought up. My brother asked, "I'm guessing, you want Daddy's old VHS tapes? They are mostly Wrestling and Westerns."
I got excited! "Yes! I would love to have the tape of me and Terry! (Hulk Hogan)"
"Well.... it may take a while to find it. Daddy has over 800 VHS tapes and we don't know which one it is!", my brother said with a silly grin.
I have them stacked in my Sunroom. I am looking forward to fast forwarding through all of them, until I find the ONE of a great Memory. It was June 29, 1981.
It would have been nice if Daddy had labeled them!!!
