Greetings Friends of the Wolf,
yesterday I was reminiscing about the early days of the internet. Yes, daddy is old enough to remember that, (though I was a mere child of 19, I've aged a lot since then). The original chat rooms were hosted much like they are here, and they had a topic of interest. I usually hung out in the Gay Men's group. We didn't have video on the net yet, so everything was done by typing. Each day that I'd check the mail I'd have 4 more CDs, then later on DVD's of software purporting to "BE the INTERNET". And back then I guess they were. It was the internet spoon fed to you through their software and their filters. We saw the internet filtered and only showing what "they" wanted us to see. This was the time when "smilies" were invented
Put enough horny gay men in one chat room and the inevitable happens. We all learn how to type with one hand. To all my female and str8 guys and girls out there, think of the debt of gratitude you owe to gay men. We wouldn't have a video chat service like this if it weren't for our reckless commandeering of early chat rooms so we could talk explicitly about sex, one hand furiously hunting and pecking the keyboard, the other furiously hunting and rubbing the pecker, all the while hiding behind the anonymity of a made up screen name.
We were the first to embellish the length of our manhood. We embellished SO MUCH that, for a generation, when we told someone online how big our penis was, we were likely to get the response back "yes, but is that in AOL inches?"
Slowly we weaned ourselves away from the spoon fed pablum of AOL and began to venture out free from the restraints of members only software and corporations. The WILD WEST of the Internet had begun. Some of you may recall the early days of Newsgroups. These were the original chat rooms (before AOL) that worked through email. I dare say that the entirety of the early days of porn are still out there circulating in the Alt.* newsgroups.
I asked a younger friend of mine if he wanted to become immortal. He was intrigued. I asked him to select 6 nude pictures (that we'd taken a week earlier) and I'd upload them to Alt.Erotica.Pics.Gay.Male. Then they gained a life of their own. Fifteen years later I still see that photo set circulating the web. Immortality. Today's version of that is when we upload a video to one of the TUBE sites. Modern immortality. I hope none of us are planning to run for president...
Yours in horniness,
-Egan_Wolf
