Looks like Viacom bought them out in a settlement with the founder of the station back in 89. Don't know if you saw this or not, I wouldn't have a clue as to getting your hands on the vids. Good luck.

SossMiester... I...er...um!!!

by the way Soss, why didn't you choose the big picture of the vans for your sig? I can hardly see it [:p]

Someone needs to give djsoss a hi-res pic of the Vans shoes. Something that expands to the size of a freeway billboard[8D]

Hey there Soss [:)] . . . I totally thought this thread was gonna be about Madonna. [;)]

The blue one is for eight6 and the white one is for Ben!

The other one is, of course, for XXX...

Can we suggest djsoss post a smaller photo?
It doesn't need to be so large
- currently the photo you posted is 1024 x 768 pixels (2.25MB), or 14.222" x 10.667 @ 72 dpi
- try 4.5 x 6" instead -- it'll still look good.

No, no, no. HUEG IS GOOD! Can you imagine the impact an enormous signature would have? People everywhere would fear it. You'd have to scroll endlessly sideways and by the time you get to the end of your sidescroll journey, you'll forget what the topic was about[}:)]
