    I lost Grimes' virginity behind that kiosk one night. He lent it to me as mine was at the cleaners... lots of memories...

    Pfft... Grimes wasn't even in UCD when that place was where BFM was housed.

    In fact, neither were most of the BFM lot that are now on Boards...

    I, on the other hand, remember it only too well - especially the damn racket the place used to make!

    All is not lost. Half of it remains... not unlike many 'Nam veterans' minds.

    Ah, the Kiosk... interfered with the internal phone system, the library, the students, anything that moved, anything that stood still, anything that looked like it might move OR stand still... Now it's gone - the end of an era.

    I remember the Kiosk... I remember wanting to nuke the damn thing, with the amount of crap it pumped out all day when BFM was broadcasting.

    Ah I remember the days!.....it was great! Booo to all you naysayers! It brought a great atmosphere to the college and provided me with one of my favorite memories of college!

    Was sitting in the law section, annoyed at being in the library studying and suddenly they started pumping out Led Zeppelin's Starway to Heaven at high volume!...Great!

    doesnt matter what you do or dont do man... you still get the blame

    ah the illustrious kiosk... nearly 12 years its been there if my calculations are correct.

    shame... still the last time it was used for broadcasting was back in the BnLFM days... back in the darktimes... the last two years however down in the blue shed have been more illuminating

    Who would want to Bcast from that box? We have plenty for fun down the big blue house. I can even sleep there for free!!! Hobo delux suite with internet access, fridge and a toliet in the bushes. Death to the B+L Hell Hole is what The Grimes Says
