Hey
My name's David. I'm currently a junior in high school, I likes to draw, read, dabble a little in writing, and watch the tellie. I am also interested in anime, rock/rap/classical/elevator music, video games, and of course, food.
And by the way, Joe's stories are the best I've ever read. Good job Joe...You're going places, I can feel it.

Hi All,
My name is John and I am a 45 year old retired Navy flight engineer. I also spent time as a Boeing aircraft inspector and a Ford drivability tech. for a Ford and Lincoln\mercury dealership. I live in Washington State and love this place immensely. I am married with 4 kids, all grown up and moved away. I think my wife and I are up to 7 grandkids as I type this, not bad for someone my age, eh? I play battlefront 1942 online at the tournament level about 6 hours a week, not counting practice time and am a recruiting officer for one of two clans I am a member of. I also work for a major fansite as a writer and forum moderator. I am involved in many forums at the moment, most having to do with my gaming activities, my motorcycle (Honda VTX 1300 retro), computer hardware or philosiphy(advice mostly). I was attracted to this website by Joe's definitive article on the customer service and hardware woes he suffered through at the hands of Dell. I am a fellow sufferer, but it was Alienware not Dell that showed me that money is no object, when your goal is to be ignored. _________________

Ah, thank you winterlion. I was just evaluating Alienware as a potential for my next laptop
Also, you'd be a shoo-in for the game discussion group. I dunno if we have any battlefield 1942 folks or not, but hey - that's one sure way to find out.
Welcome party peoples in the place to be. I am called Strong Bad. Ladies, for a line to my right for make-outs. Dudes, for a line to my left for high-five's.
Just kidding. Hi all, I'm Nelson. I'm cool. Thats all you need to know.

Hiya. Name's Shawn, I'm 25, live in Nebraska (not as bad as it sounds) and work as an editor for a major computer magazine. I also write (had a book out a number of years ago) and direct independent films. While all of this may sound somewhat interesting, I am the most boring cat you will ever meet.
Well, except for the fact that I have an evil head growing out of the left side of my neck. It's not so bad that you'd notice.

Hey everyone! My name is Robert, and I'm the other Moderator on this board. I'm from Charlotte, NC, but am currently attending Appalachian State University in Boone. I'm a music fanatic, both in listening in playing, and a gamer extrordinaire. If you need any help with anything, don't be afraid to PM me.
Oh, and I have to agree with the other Alienware comment - they may have good computers, but nothing that you can't buy yourself and have the satisfaction of putting together and knowing just exactly is what in your box.

I'm Jimmy Joe, I'm from Elberton, GA and I like my dogs. They's smart dogs.
They scare my ex away when she comes round tryin to get money.
One time ol Cecil bit her in the ass and I had to wash his mouth out. I had to make sure he didnt get no rabies from that fat [TOS Violation].
Hello. My name remains a mystery and I steal, repair and sell infants on ebay. I have websites I never update and promises I never keep. I look to Joe here as a person I should try to pattern myself after and then I get depressed and then out comes the booze (again) and it's simply a vicious circle I'd prefer not to talk about. Thanks.
Hey. Name=Jess, Age=20, Area of Residence= place where it snows in April... a.k.a. Ottawa, Ontario. I am currently finishing up second year university and manage a Tim Horton's (how Canadian of me...). My addiction to Joe's work started with his piece on the show 24. My other addictions are reading, work, and my cat, who is somewhat psycho and likes to bite ankles walking by the kitchen table.

Hey there! My name is Brandy. I am 30 and currently residing in Williamsburg, VA. I basically keep Kaosmunkee from destroying the universe, or at least from setting fire to the kitchen.
Either is no easy task, let me tell you.
I dabble in photography, your run of the mill HawaiianSavage Hoodoo, and from time to time, I work as an OfficeSlave. (No, not that kind of OfficeSlave, perv!) It pays the bills and feeds the cats, so I can't complain.
I've been a reader for quite some time and make it a point to pimp the goodness that is Joe to everyone I know! Because, not only is Joe the bee's knees? He's sly as a fox!
(Yeah, I had to get one more in there. Sorry!) _________________ "Sell crazy some place else! We're stocked up here."
