On the evening of 12-9-2004 I was board at work so I decided to search on-line for anything Godfather related, if I remember rightly I typed in Godfather Facts and half way down the results page I came across a website called thegodfathertrilogy.com so I click on the page and came across this website with all GF related info and I was in my element. I noticed at the side was a link to a BB message board. If was great to see a place where I could read and talk about things GF related with other people. There is/was a section for mafia films in general and I just knew this was the place for me.
A lot has happened to me in the 10 years that followed. I have been to Australia twice where I met my German fiancée,been to Graceland, left home, changed jobs four time, moved to Germany with my fiancée and we plan on getting married on our 10th Anniversary in Aug 2015.
Of the members who where around 10 years ago I think there is only a hand full who post still which is a shame, but I guess people have moved on from forums due to FB and Twitter..
Here's to 10 more years and visiting this great site.
Peace and Love.

You've been a constant around here for many years, DE NIRO, and I've always enjoyed your posts and thoughts. It is true what you say, that most of the members who were active when I joined have gone off into the sunset. With the advent of social media, message boards have become a thing of the past. I usually visit at least once a day, but rarely post anymore. There are a multitude of reasons for that. In any event, happy 10 years, DE NIRO! Here's to 10 more!

That is amazing how time flies and how different technology is today. I still enjoy these boards and am glad to see long-time posters still around. I'm sure I'll forget some (not intentionally), but I enjoy reading stuff from Pizzaboy, Klydon, TIS, Sicilan Babe, Mig, DeNiro, Irishman12, Turnbull, and of course our moderators Don Cardi, SC, and Geoff. It's great to get the perspectives of people across the world like you DeNiro.
