It was 4am in late 1998. Cher's "I believe" was just released and as a result on near constant repeat on MTV (music on MTV, how shocking,right?) in the background while I was sitting on dialup, in a private AOL chat room, playing hangman with several others via someones chat proggie.

I won.

Traveling on a ferry, I was having dinner. In the eating area, there was a group of friends traveling together and one dude kept laughing. His laugh was so loud and infectious that everyone he laughed, I couldn't help but chuckle. Even after finishing eating and going to another part of the ferry, I could still hear him and it still made me laugh.
