It was an old dial-up multi user system that charged monthly fees. Once the internet became popular, Compuserve connected, but they predate the commercial home internet.
It's Joseph Fiennes, not Bradley Whitford. Had to look it up.
Thank you, very detailed reply!
I dunno why you're being downvoted, but could you explain the differences, please?
Media has taught us that a first date involves drinking in a bar or restaurant, in part because of movie shorthand. (Dinner and drinks is a date, forget the rest of the evening, we just set the stage to imply the rest.)
As many others have said, your normal is your normal. Don't let society or Hollywood pressure you into dating 'their way'.
I met my wife on a date at a coffeehouse near here house. We then went to a pizza place across the street. No alcohol involved, but I did bring a board game into the restaurant with us.
I once got drunk when the wife was out of town and went around the house putting googly eyes everywhere. (My wife's fault for buying a bag!)

Sorry, this probably isn't coherent but I'm tired and tipsy, and I've chosen to hit save.
All so that none of their tenants can afford any of those four things without constantly struggling!
Until there are some kind of real penalties for submitting unconstitutional legislation, we will not be able to stop these clowns from abusing our state legislatures.

1990, through a local dialup university system that had security issues.
Within a few years after that we had home dialup internet.
In 1998, cable modems came to town. My neighborhood was the beta test area, so I had friends in my living room playing Everquest almost daily.
