Ah, yes the dot.com boom. I spent less than two years dot.comming, but saved enough money to pay my son's way through a small private college for three years. My husband lasted until 2002 or 2003 and spent more of it than he should have, but during those years we made more than we ever had before or since. We were practically pulling people out of the gutter to work. And we still measure Bay Area traffic by dot.com standards (is every car in the Bay Area on the roads, or can you squeeze some more in, especially between 1am and 4am?) Oh, and work was more fun than you can ever imagine. I loved my managers, supervisors, and co-workers than you can imagine.
