A decent, free BBS is on my list of shit to build. Right after "homemade vodka distillery."

I went through a internet dbase scripting phase a while back, and had the same idea... iKonboard was already free, and way more feature-packed than I'd ever have time to write.

The dtman.com front page was even sripted for a while, then my then-ISP screwed me over by deleting all of my databases.

Yeah, but there's some features you just don't use that much. & it's the ultimate killshot against spam.

A decent, functioning BBS isn't that shitty of a project.

I've been finding a lot of grape vines in the weeds out back, some with large grapes that are very tasty.

SO I'm thinking wine next yea.

Nah, I'm thinking regular wine. Going to google wine presses, and oak barrels. Barrel. A small one.

Been eating the grapes off those vines while back there working. Tastiest grapes I've ever had.
