What a great contest idea Kimm! Congratulations on making it to the 5 year mark with p-g.net
I could never really keep a domain for longer than two years… yikes. I know some who go through domains every year or six months!
Ok now on to your answers…. this is a little tough, as your making me search for the answers, but really … they were super easy to find!!!

Oh! Happy belated 5 year birthday p-g.net
I still remember the first time I stumbled across this site when star-beams.org existed a long while back, where I was a hostee once.
Anyways, congrats on being a mom now! Time sure flies by quickly these couple of years.

Hah, I haven’t known you for that long.
I wish I did so I could enter. Congrats on the 5 years! I’m almost nearing 2 years myself.

Whaaahooo!
I am just happy that I still know you well, even after all those years I have been away from the website business. At this moment I feel inspired to start my own contest, not sure what yet but it will come to me one way or another. :P
