September is "Tae month"
To start the ball rolling on my reminiscings, I have dug out all posts by "Tae: the tasteless paramedic".
From 1994 until 1997, the newsgroup "alt.tasteless" enjoyed a period as the representative of the cruder aspects of the counterculture of the Net. It wasn't just porn or sophomoric filth - there was some good writing. Under the pseudonym "Dr Grogan", as one of the first WWW enthusiasts among the denizens of 'alt.tasteless', I attempted to collect some of the better posts of the period and display them on a Web page. Ten years later, I will attempt to re-display these posts as a blog.

Authorship: I didn't write most of these posts. I have removed the original email addresses and footers from the posts but have retained the pseudonym. Before you ask me to remove any posts, search for it on Google™. If the offending post is available in Google's archives, I'll remove your post after Google or the other archivist has.
Disclaimer: The posts in this blog are supposed to be creative writing, i.e. fantasy - they do not (necessarily) describe events which really happened, as authentic as some of the writing is. Use your common sense and don't attempt or believe this stuff.
