The Search for 99 Secrets

About a gazillion years ago, during the time I discovered the internet and the joy of just surfing, I happened to come upon a site called '99 Secrets' and now the site is GONE! I've searched in Google and in Yahoo and I found out some things about it such as it was created by a guy name Carl Steadman and this guy is quite known about a gazillion years ago in the techie world.

Here's a sample of what you can find in 99 Secrets:

Once she told him a story about a white knight,
and a princess that didn't need saving. A
m I the knight? he asked her.
No, she answered.
You're the person I'm telling the story to.

I went back and tried to go to http://99secrets.com but it's giving me some unknown portal. Damn!

About 4 or more years ago while surfing the net, I came across one website by a 24-year-old Pinoy who works in Makati. Since that was about 4 - 5 years ago, I guess he could be in his late 20s already. I have no idea what the web address is and I am again looking for this site. The creator of the website is into writing prose and poetry and I actually got to save one of his works:

...i don't know where we're going from here.
you say you have a pretty good idea where you want things to go...
mmm-hmmh.
first let me thank you for teaching me how to drive an automatic. =)i think i want to do more stuff like that.
i want to go shopping together. watch more movies. and cable.
maybe you'll teach me how to play on a playstation (i think i've done that only once, before).
i want do groceries together.
learn how to cook a complicated dish together.
go swimming.
go camping.
sleep in a hammock side-by-side.
maybe one of these days share an apartment.
i want us to hold each other's hand when we're walking in the light rainto keep each other warm during cold january nights in Baguio
to rest our heads on each other's lap when we're weary
and hear the other's soft murmuring breath as we sleep.
i want us to get to know each other deeply,
to share each other's dreams,
to celebrate each one's triumphs,
and forgive each other's faults.
i want to share your life, and to share my life with yours, even if only for whatever while God thinks we should be together --
and if he's listening, that'll be for a long, long time.

After an hour of searching the web for Carl Steadman, I found his website. It's not 99 Secrets but I'm getting closer.

From Carl Steadman's Website :

I miss you so much that sometimes it
just makes me stop, on the inside.
And die just a little bit more for you.

as well as this one...

I could have been someone you loved...

...but instead became someone who loved you.

Who is Maan?

---

Very talkative, very frank to the point of being tactless. Major hyper active and super kulit. Tampuhin, selosa and madalas may topak. Psychotic but bearable most of the time. Pakialamera. Addicted to those excel quizzes and surveys forwarded through e-mail. Have learned how to say no to FREE FOOD and resist the temptation of buffets. Listens to The Morning Rush with Chico and Delamar and is a major fan of Sex and the City. Fiercely loyal to friends (especially the under dogs). Can't dance, can't sing, can't act but very OA (Outstanding Actress). Doesn't smoke, drink nor do drugs but definitely a great girl to hang out with (sagot ko na ang kwento). Cynical on the outside but a hopeless romantic deep inside. Tries not cry over a guy but will shed buckets of tears while watching a movie. Escapes from the real world by reading books, watching movies,and tv shows. Dreams of travelling the world someday and joining The Amazing Race with a friend who knows how to swim, ride a bike and drive a car.

...Nostalgia...
