Tell us a little bit about yourself....

[The Dork Knight]

Well my real name is'nt Mick Foley like most people think. My real name is Peter William Melnick. I was born on December 4, 1988. To be honest, I am the biggest kid in my class. Height and weight wise. I am 6' foot and I way 270 pounds(Yes, I weigh that much kiddies).I am in 7th grade and just entered middle school. I am a big techno buff. I have like 15 different video game systems. My favorite type of games are stuff like Final Fantasy. MY taste of music has changed over the years. Instead of listening to pop music or rap like most kids my age, I listen to heavy metal and soft rock. My Favorite heavy metal band is Korn. My favorite soft rock singer is Billy Joel. And if you did'nt figure out, I'm a big wrestling fan. I am hoping that one day I will join the WWF when I am older. Laugh if you must, but I don't think you want DAMIEN, son of the Undertaker beating you up one day. :D Well that's all folks.

- Foley Is Good a.k.a Son of the Undertaker:D

[apple head]

My first name is apple and I'm from the head family. We own a racing car team called McLaren and we compete in Formula one races. Aswell as an Apartmant in Goatsville we own a ranch in Monte Carlo. I like cartoons and ride emu's. Sometimes I am romantically linked with a Moose :o

[Trent Lane]

What the heck... my name is Christopher call me Chris. I just turned 20 last Friday. I work at a grocery store while at the same time am a full time student going for my associate degree in graphic design and advertising. I'm about 5'8", 180 lbs., brown hair and eyes. My main intrests are the animated DCU, any kind of racing, mostly NASCAR, collecting figures, diecast cars, etc., and music. My favorite artists include 311, The Cardigans, Cloudberry Jam, Incubus, Komeda, String Cheese Incident, No Doubt, and sooo many more. I drive the car dubbed "The Cheezwagon"- it's my first car of which I've been through a lot. It's back windows are coming close to being filled with stickers. I guess that pretty much covers it....

[Naraht]

I Nick Frame, am the master of the universe! When I'm not having dilusions..(ok, and even when I am)..I'm a 23 Year old Master Contol Operator here in lubbock texas aka 2 hours north of Hell. (That would be Midland for those of you playing at home)

I was born on Nov. 5th in New Hampshire...and I've also lived in El Paso, TX and Rome NY....and briefly in Hampden ME...when is a suburb of Bangor..where Steven King lives! =O Scary!

I'm hoping to go back to school this fall...and right now I'm dealing with insane bills, making too little money..and trying to figure out how to get a 2nd job, still get enough sleep, and not miss any of my toons. I think I need a time machine....or a clone.

My typical day start at 4 in the morning, when I have to get my tired butt out of bed. Then I get ready, and goto work..at this point you're thinking "Wow". Right now I'm running tapes for Daybreak Today, Lubbock's Highest rated Morning news..=D

in 45 mins, I'll start doing Master Control (as the news'll be over) and that'll take me through the rest of the day, when i get off at 1.

Then I'll go home..eat, and wait an hour till Toons start.

After Toonami's done...I'll probably watch some more Subbed Escaflowne..eat some more, and goto bed.


My Life sucks..kill me...kill me now!!!!!

[Jedigreedo]

Don't you know who I am?!?!!

I'm Batman!
My name is Andrew LaRue, I'm 15, 5' 7", dunno my weight (I know I'm heavy, heh) and I'm homeschooled so basically I do absolutely nothing but collect Star Wars/Star Trek/Batman/NASCAR merchandise, chat on-line, level edit for the Star Wars computer game - Jedi Knight, and just do what I need to do..which isn't a whole lot so I'm really lazy and just really sit around all day playing my GameCube or Playstation 2, or watching TV or being on the net. Not a very active life...Not too mention a very lonely one. :D

[joshualane]

As long as no one uses this information for "evil" purposes, I will share as well.

My name is Joshua Lane (creative nickname for this board huh?). I'm 23 and live in Falls Church, VA, but work in Frederick, MD (it's about 35 min away). My official title is "Manager of Web Services", but my actual job is pretty much a combination of Tech Support, Network Administrator, Web Designer & Developer, & Software Engineer. Now that I think about it, I probably don't get paid enough for having to do all of those things.

On the hobbies/interests side of things, I collect Transformers & Zoids toys and have a nice little shelf for them. Did you know that you can write off your "hobby" purchases on your tax return if you spend more than 5% of your yearly income on it? I'm SERIOUSLY going to start saving my receipts. I'm also developing a website about Cartoons & Anime on DVD called www.animatedbliss.com (shameless plug :p ) which should be ready to go live in about a month. It's a lot of work (over 1000 DVD listings :eek: ), but I can't wait until it's finally finished. I also like to play Tennis as much as I can and with this freakish heat wave we're having in the DC area, hopefully I'll get out sometime today or tomorrow to play.

[Nightflower]

I'm Amanda, my birthday's next Thursday, trying to apply to animation school, Canuck, have nice friends (offline and on) and a nice boyfriend, pretty much a well adjusted person. Scary, huh? Anything else, you can look up on my webpage :D (*PLUG*)

[DR. BELCH]

--if you want to know about me, buy my first book when it come out. There'll be a whole section, either in the book itself or at a website, that tells all about me and where I get my ideas from. Of course, there's the matter of finishing it, and getting the money to publish it...but hopefully I will be a real writer by next year. :D

[Sumi_Masen]

I'll just keep it short and sweet, my name is Audra(named after the Audra in Stephen King's "IT"), I'm 14, I live in the small town of Landis, N.C., and my brother is the head 'freak' of the school(ask Watagashi or atari_14 if you don't believe me)

She's right. I mean he's cool and all, but he is the head freak.

[Blue Priestess]

My turn, I guess. I'm Melanie, but most folks just call me Mela. I'm a college student in Pennsy, and I'm studying English--the "I don't want a social life" major. My birthday's February 10th, and I'll be 21 this year, which means I can gamble!! Anyway, my main goal in life is to be a professional comics writer, and I have a lousy site to show off my sub-par writing.

The handle MTDiva is NOT an MTV reference. I cannot stress this enough. The "MT" refers to "Masochism Tango", one of the finest songs in the history of music. It's also my email. If you don't know it, then I recommend "Songs and More Songs by Tom Lehrer", as it has both live and orchestral versions of this (and "Poisoning Pidgeons in the Park"). Just thought I'd let everyone know.

Mela

[atari_14]

Oh so you want to know about me. well My name is Diana. I live in the same little town Sumi lives in, and i go to the same school (duh). I have a twin brother that is really annoying (ask Sumi_masen and Watagashi they'll sure tell you) oh, and if you haven't already figured out Sumi_masen, watagashi, and i are friends. My favorite things to do when i'm not beating up my brother is watching tv, lisening to music, and talking to on the phone. I guess i'm your average teenager. oh,i'm 14. I take part in some school acedemics Band and JROTC. if you what to know more just ask. ok, i've already said to much.

[Calhoun07]

My name is Jeff Stoneking, and I am probably more akin to the characters Seymore and Enid from Ghost World than anything else. You know that scene in Ghost World where Seymore tells Enid he has 1500 78's in his collection because he took it down to just the essentials. That's me with my CD collection (about 1200 strong and growing!). I also have a modest collection of DVDs and books and somewhere between 3000-4000 comic books. (I can SERIOUSLY write off these puchases on my taxes? Where is that law?)

In addition to that, I love to write, draw, and make music, tho lately I've been doing more writing than the other three. I go thru stages where I focus on one more than the other two.

I work in a bank full time, and a video store part time. Other than that, I don't know what I can tell you that would be that interesting, as if that was! :D

[optimal321]

My name is Lee, and my phone number, address, and social security numbers are...

Oh, wait too personal. :p

I'm a little over 6 feet tall, and weigh about 150 pounds. I've got a good tone, but i'm working on gaining more weight.

I love to draw, and read comics, and watch cartoons.

I will be 18 in a few weeks, and will start college next year.

Women really don't like me.

I guess that's all you need to know :D

[langden alger]

hi...not too many people know who i am. i'm very quiet and enjoy puzzels....

okay well, actually the details of my life are kind of scketchy....i seem to remeber getting knocked into a vat of chemicals by some lousy freak in a bat suit...other times i remember being a stand up comic...my memory is really fuzzy.....

:D lol...

well okay... if you want the truth, i'm bryan. i'm 24 years old..i reside in pictureusque west philly pa...i love music and drawing. my main loves and obsessions are writing, movies, the world wrestling federation and of coarse, the reason i'm here to begin with-batman. but i'm really into lots of diffrent cartoons and sci-fi stuff...

oh yeah-i'm also a Pisces. i love hiking, romantic dinners for two, love pets and children, rainy days and long walks on the beach...and uhhh my favorite color is auqua marine :D pick me!!

[Watagashi]

Okay, my name is Stephanie and I go to the same school as Audra (Sumi) and Diana (atar_14). I'm not sure where I live right now because I keep on rotating between my dad's house in Kannapolis and my grandma's house in China Grove, North Carolina. I don't have a southern accent, although I was raised here, and I intend to become a novelist when I graduate from college. So far, I've written one book and am trying to work on the sequel as well. I also like to draw comic books and different people that I make up. My best friends are Audra, Diana, Megan, and Josh and I have a wierd cousin that has glowing red hair.

I think I talked too long. :p

[Sango]

I hate to talk about myself, but if I might as well post something here...

My name is Marie, I'm 17, and I live in Beckley, West Virginia. It's really boring around here and I never do anything except get on the computer or read. Occasionally I'll watch TV. I'm a bit of a loner, although this year I'm doing slightly better! I'm actually talking to a couple of people during school.... :eek: Let's just say people and I don't get along so well...Once I get out of school, I want to go to college and I'll probably become an archaeologist. I used to want to work in Egypt, but now I've been considering Europe. I can read some Egyptian hieroglyphs and I'm learning French. I really love foreign languages and I'll probably minor in French in college. And if all else fails, I'll move into a shack out in the middle of the woods and I'll never have to deal with people or worry about a job ever again! ;)

I guess that's about all...Sorry to waste everyone's time... :p

[The Guitar Slayer]

Okay.

My name is Anna. I'm 'petite,' as the catalogs say it (just under 5'4") I'm a sophomore in a Catholic high school. I'm the freak of the school, and I'm antisocial to boot. I have been classified as "class genius." My classmates don't get me; I'm not shallow enough for them. The seniors like me and my gothic ways. The principal thinks they've corrupted me, but I'm pretty screwed up to begin with.

I hate Jersey, which, ironically, is where I reside. I got a sister who acts like she's three and a half and gets away with it. I escape in books, music, and the Internet. I play electric and acoustic guitars and the trumpet, mainly. Sometimes, it's the only thing that keeps me going. I aim to be a starving artist so my parents disown me and stop making my life miserable. Recording music (as a studio tech), writing, journalism, and perhaps acting are careers I hope to persue.

I'm a chronic insomniac and have been in a deep blue funk for about the last 7 years of my life.

That about covers it.

[batE]

Usually, disclosing this stuff really creeps me out, but we're all friends here, no? :) Well, I'm Erin (hence the "E" in batE), I'm 24, grew up in Pa., attended a college in Pa., and now am in the depths of Hades --er, South Florida. I'm a weirdo with a capital W: I love action cartoons, I love RPGs, I love comics, and for a while, I was seriously into Magic (the card game, that is). My dream is to become a comics writer or to at least publish a book of short stories. I love fanfiction, and I have written a fair amount of it, most of it unfinished :( I really don't like my job, but hey. Such is life. And I love this board :) Most introspective fans of anything I've ever seen!

batE

[Leaping Larry Jojo]

I'm some guy in some town near Toronto. I go to some post-secondary school. I'm not too tall, but about average for a Canadian (which means I'm not tall at all). I read books, comic strip collections and occasional comic book TPBs. I like to watch fast paced sports on TV, so baseball and golf are not top of the list must-see TV fpr me. I like watching women's tennis...well, I just like seeing Anna Kournikova sweat and grunt. I like women's figure skating--I have my own grading system, huh-huh. I like watching cartoons, anime, the usual.

I draw, but I don't have a scanner, so no posting my work on the drawing board. I also only do it for fun, so that means my work is crap on a professional level. ;-)

I like to go out for the occasional drive with a friend or whatever girlfriend I have at the moment (You see, I have this fantasy of me and my girlfriend driving to the ends of the world...it makes me feel good--psychological?)

Career goals? Uh, help. My only major worry for the future.

[ccffan01]

HI MY NAME IS BRAK.

[Elven Moon]

Well, my name's Megan, and I live in the US. I'll be 21 soon (feeling really old right now), and majoring in Graphic Design.

My hobbies? I really love collecting anime, and basically anything medieval and fantasy-like is something I absolutely love. I like to read and write (though I'm too shy to post up any of my works - I'm very modest), and though not as often as I used to, draw (I suck at that, too, basically, but I do it anyway :P).

[Batgirl_2005]

Hi my name is Heather... and.... I live in the middle of no where. I'm 5'5'' and I weigh around 115. and I'm 14 (I'll be fifteen July Seventh!) I'm a freshman @ our highschool...

I'm an actress... (I prefer to be called a drama nerd...) I'm a singer... (Ok... I have a halfway decent voice and I'm in the advanced choir at school... am I quialified to be a singer?) And I'm a dancer... (Ballet [being taught through the Royl Academy Of Dance] and modern.)

My main interests (other than those above) are anime and DC comic books. But, as I said, I live in the middle of nowhere so yeah... the only comic books any of us ever see are... Sonic the Hedgehog and Archie. Not that I'm complaining. I LOVE archie!!! and anime is nonexistent here... life sucks...

[Fantasie117]

Most people call me either D or Den.

I live in northeastern New Jersey, like two or three miles from the New York state border.

I'm a junior in an all-girl Catholic high school, which I hate, but I can't leave my friends. I don't have many because I can't stand the people in my school (especially the entire sophomore class...except one).

I despise anything "trendy" or "in," like in fashion, music, or TV. I prefer my own style; I listen to classic rock (Bon Jovi!), and I watch CSI and The West Wing. (And Smallville, but that's a guilty pleasure ;))

I love to read and write, but I just don't have time any more because of school. :mad:

Well, that's all about me...you may now return to your lives.

[Evil Dr. Reef]

Hi, my name is Matt (Hi, Matt!). I'm 16, live in Crackertown U.S.A. (Waterford, Mi.) and go to Waterford Mott High Skool (the "druggy/alcoholic school", as we're refered to around here).

I'm a major band geek (no American Pie lines, pleeeeease), and therefore am in Symphony, Jazz, and Marching Band. I'm the most cynical person in the history of the world, as many people will tell you, and I enjoy Anime, Comedy (in all forms), and quoting lines from various episodes of SGC2C, SeaLab 2021, etc.
It's like a fanboy religion around here, as The Polisher & Zorakfan can easily tell you.

I listen to, but do not neccesarily enjoy, all types of music, but I'm especially fond of Jazz. My current project in life is to complete the Flash animation that Zorakfan & I are working on, and submit a link to it somewhere on the boards, and to try, try, try to not get banned forever. But if I do, it's been surreal, folks!

[Naraht]

Hrm, you know, seems like I left out a bit this morning..

Umm 5'9", 115-120 Lbs...(translation, I'm a skinny rail stick boy) Brown Hair, Hazle Eyes, Glasses....(In need of a stalker. I should have claimed to be female, would make it easier to find one. *sigh*)

I'm big into Sci-Fi, and to some extent Fantasy (though not as much). I find most mainstream fiction boring, and that is that.

I'm sorta into comics, but not nearly as hardcore as everyone else...I read em in the store, and that's good enough for me.

I'm broke. Really..between, rent, car, cable, & cable modem....I have no money. Did you see food? No..cause I'm broke.

While not currently involved, I've been very active in theater, mostly Tech stuph. all four of my parents are into theater, which probably explains it. My dad & step-mom founded the only kids theater group in El Paso, and my step-dad is about to get his masters in theater - He builds the most kick ass sets you've ever seen. My mom is a great actress, but she's "retired".

umm...I have few friends, have never been on a date, and can safely say that "I'm more pathetic than you are"

There, don't you feel better! =D

=]

[Zorakfan]

Hey! I live in crackertown too! Well, Hi, my name is TJ, I'm 15, and I'm clinically insane in 49 out of 22 orpanages, and enjoy beating up things that have more legs than I do. I'm into Anime, gaming, japanese stuff, gaming, bonsai, gaming, hen.....s. Hens...as in Ornithology. (OBLIGITORY HENTAI JOKE REFERANCE QUOTA LIMIT EXCEEDED TODAY) Comedy, being insane, Biology, Waspology, lot's of ologies having to do with biology, gutting stuff up, stuff being eaten, maimed, etc. Oh, and Gaming. I belong to our little fanboy religion thing we got going, although really I'm Buddhist/Shinto/Christian/Jewish/Liberal Quaker/Universalist. I think I'm covered when it comes to the afterlife. Part of All, belong to none. My favorite music group is Yoko Kanno and the seat belts. (I liked em before I heard of Cowboy Bebop. Yay me) My friends here include Evil Dr. Reef and the Polisher. My favorite food is Mango pudding, but mangos are now extinct...or rather the company that manufactured the synthetic mix went extinct. So Pizza, noodles, Italian, and the now Tarnished Udon *Don't ask* are my favortie foods. Right now, I'm working on a Flash animation that's 100% better than I could have ever made it on my own thanks to some of the Evil Doctor's brilliant ideas. (Old 50's audience tracks...awwww yeah) The Flash is in 2 parts, 5 minutes a piece, spoofing Dragon Ball Z. The animation style and way it plays out is a lot like Sealab or Spaceghost. I'm workin on it...wanna make sure it actually looks decent. But in itself, the flash is...not...politically correct...for lack of a better term. Surf the toonami board to find a thread that turned into Dr. Reef and I just yelling out parts of the story. There's more, but I need more sweet, venom laced wassail. So I'll just let the computer finish the rest.

Zorakfan is a guy born in 1842, raised by demons, he leads a crack team of government agents in a crusade to...i don't know...destroy Nickelodean studios.

Remember kids, It's illeagal to sell alchohol to minors, but the law doesn't say anything about mind-altering neuro toxins!

*SLURP*

AHHHH! Blowfish Brew!

*WHUMP*


.....

*BOOOOO!*

[Zorakfan]

Hehe, on the subject of Dates:
I'm somewhat picky...I just want a gal who's funny, slightly insane, (one of us has to be the voice of reason) smart, romantic, slightly submissive (yet equal), and not morbidly obese. (Call me shallow if you wish, but you gotta draw the line somewhere...like foods comprised entirely of...*inside joke*)
Problems with this:

1. Very few, less than 1% who would fill this quota within a 10 mile radius of Crackerville, er, Waterford.

2. Maybe that is a little too picky

3. 60% of the girls in my school are skanks/present skanklike qualities

4. I'm no Fabio.

So, chalk me up on the no dates list too. We are pathetic. But at least I can vent my romantic/sexual frustration all I want at Nickelodean/ISPs/Stupid People/Tri-peds+ in the form of insane critique, pyrotechnics, and Horrible, Horrible flash animations. Let's all drown our sorrows in Sweet Wassail and Hen....s. It's fun to watch hens fight.

(OBLIGITORY HENTAI JOKE QUOTA REACHING CRITICAL MASS)

YES, ULTRA PEEPI! DESTROY! DESTROY!

"WHUNK, WHUNK, SMASH*
"Hehe....nailed it..."

[NewMaxFranklin]

My name is Kurt Franklin. I'm 5'9", 165lbs, dark hair. I look a bit like Ryu from the Street Fighter video games. I'm the oldest of three children. Just turned 19 a month ago.

I was born in Hawaii; I currently live in Hollywood, (fakeville) California. Why leave Hawaii? I'm going to be an animated filmmaker. Writing screenplays at present. Supporting myself with a grocery store day-job.

I'm like reading screenplays and occasionally seeing a movie. I don't have a tv and spend a good chunk of time on the net. Used to draw a LOT, but I'm writing more now. I like to work out and practice martial arts.

My favorite bands are Queen, The Kinks, Incubus and Squeeze. I like rock and or roll music; 1950's to early 80's and a bit of the present.

Some of my favorite movies are American Beauty, Dark City, Highlander, L.A. Confidential, Jaws and Pleasantville.

My favorite foods are sushi, Chinese take-out, and Korean BBQ.

Never dated, kissed, copped-a-feel, etc... But I'm looking forward to it. :D

How do you know it won't be her? :D Just kidding. Everyone needs an insane friend now and then to show them just how sane they really are!


There's only one problem; who do the insane people turn to? :( ;)

[atf487]

Im a 12 year old male.
5"6
incredibly ugly
i get on honor roll, etc.
I play soccer, backyard football
live in Mass., about 50 min. from Boston
hate almost all of the girls in my grade. They're so mean and "bit--y".
Watch programs or play games that make other people crazy, but they don't effect me
I quote everything
I surprisingly have friends
Never been away from home without my parents
Like pop-punk and punk music
Thats it. Im special

[Zorakfan]

How do you know it won't be her?

That's what I meant.

If you'll excuse me, I need to drink Mothra out of my brain now.

[Zebi]

My name is Jennifer Fisher, and I live in Whitby, Ontario with my dad, his girlfriend, my sister, and niece. The house is a duplex (which Nat, Dad's girlfriend owns) and my sister rents the upstairs apartment. I pay room and board. We have 12 cockatiels, 1 conure, and 1 parrotlet for pets. I keep asking when we are going to apply for status as a bird sanctuary! :D

I just turned 28 last December, and I am currently looking for full-time work. On the weekends, I work as a security guard for Securitas. I'm not interesting in becoming a cop or anything, but it was work that was available. The site I'm at is a furniture warehouse/plant, and it's really quiet there on the weekends - I've never had a problem there. I'm also registered with a couple of temp agencies, looking for clerical work. I've taken a college course and have good computer skills and I'm hoping a temporary position will lead to something full-time. No luck so far.

I'm 5"1 ( my sister calls me a midget! :mad: ), and am heavy. My hair is medium brown, long, and I either wear it lose or pulled back into a ponytail. Spirituality-wise, I'm Wiccan. I enjoy listening to Alice Cooper, hard rock, anime/j-pop, country. I also like to read and spend time with our birds, who always love a headrub! It's been a pleasure watching Chalky, a white-faced cinnamon cockatiel who has always been very shy, begin to come out of her shell. She really seems to enjoy my company!

[Danielle]

Um.....go ahead. :eek:

I meant what if she's the voice of reason? Oh. Well, okkay, what if *you're* the voice of reason, then?

No, if you're the.....
Darnit.

[Sango]

Jennifer,

Oooooo...You have birds!! We used to have a lot of birds. Over the years, we've had about 12 or 13 cockatiels if you include the babies they had, about 17 budgies, 6 zebra finches, 5 lovebirds, and 7 doves. Right now we only have one budgie since my mom doesn't have time to take care of that many birds anymore. :( Our last cockatiel died from a tumor the year before last.

My family really loves animals if you can't tell. ;) Besides birds, we've had countless fish, 5 dogs, two guinea pigs, an iguana, turtles, etc. This is all over time, though. I couldn't imagine having all those pets all at once...lol


It's cool to find another bird-person on here. ^_^

[Zorakfan]

Birds are good. I have parakeets. They are...fun.

I like chickens too. They are delicious.

Parakeets not as much so.

[Adam Tyner]

My name is Adam Tyner, as you could probably guess from my username. I'm 23, and I'm a web developer (PHP/MySQL) for an Internet-based travel service based in Greenville, South Carolina. Greenville is sandwiched almost exactly at the halfway point between Atlanta and Charlotte, which as far as I can tell is the only reason it exists.

My hobbies are pretty much limited to watching movies, and I've amassed a respectably large collection of DVDs. A hefty portion of those are screeners I receive for review purposes, which is another way I kill time on weekends. I used to collect comics, but I only buy a scattered issue here and there anymore. My favorites were the late, great Scud: The Disposable Assassin, Bone, Legion of Super-Heroes/Legionnaires, anything Keith Giffen has had his hand in, Mike W. Barr's indescribably brilliant Outsiders series (minus the wretched '90s incarnation), practically anything from the early-to-mid-'80s from Marvel (particularly Uncanny X-Men, the Spider-Man books, and the Fantastic Four), Firestorm, and quite a number of others. Bands recently in rotation in my stereo are Sloan, that dog., the Hippos, XTC, the Young Fresh Fellows, They Might Be Giants, Moxy Fruvous, Olivia Tremor Control, Beulah, Fountains of Wayne, Jellyfish, Veronica, and Imperial Drag. I don't watch much television, but when I do, I'm invariably tuned into Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, or Big Wolf On Campus. Yes, laugh away. :) I adore Big Wolf so much that I created a fan site, and I spent a day on the set a couple of months back, where I got to meet Corey Feldman. One Corey down, one to go. I spend nearly every waking hour in front of a computer, often frequenting DVD Talk and the Home Theater Forum.

[kiddiesunshine]

well...




i look-a like a man! because i am.

[Bird Boy]

*steps up to the podium and clears throat*

Hi. My names Joseph, and I'm a net-a-holic.

:D

Hmm...well, lets see, after school (I'm homeschooled BTW), I usually get on the net and listen to music. Then get off the net, take dogs a walk (if it's nice..today isn't), and play video games (sometimes my mom drags me shopping during the time I SHOULD be playing video games), then get back on the net and then get off and do homework.

The weekends are alot better though..more time to do stuff...

Reasons I spend so much time on the net:

I work on a website (PLUG: TheJawa.com)
I MODerate forums (PLUG: ToonZone. Wait..that's not a plug..we're on toonzone.....hmmm)

So, yeah, that's me in a nutshell... :)

Hi, my name is Andrew!

CROWD: HI, ANDREW!

*I*, not Bird Boy or anyone else, am the biggest net freak on these boards. I spend about half my day on the net.

When I'm not on the net, I exercise and work out. I am a big fan of running, my best time for a mile is 6:55 minutes. I also weight-lift.

I enjoy video games a lot, too, though I have just 4 games on my now obsolete Dreamcast.

I *WILL* edit this post later with more stuff-I must go. :(

Hey... I'm Danny. On the verge of not being a teenager anymore.


Southern California is the best place in the world. *maybe*
I went to the world famous John Marshall High School in Los Angeles, CA.
I'm a martial artist, currently learning the Tai Ki Dao style of Kung Fu. I learned Bruce Lee's one-inch punch about 4 months ago... it's awesome.

My girlfriend is the most awesome lady I have ever met. (she looks like Cassandra Cain)

I play the piano, and am training to be an organist at my church.
I have a nearly eidetic memory, which I use to recreate dope movie scenes with me and my friends as actors.

I'm everso obsessed with the Bat-mythos. Being a Batgirl-level fighter and a Batman-level detective... that's my goal in life.

I'm on my way to be a federal agent... CIA or NSA... woo go government! :p

ADD, anyone? I think I have it.

Very impressive, Danny. Sounds like you've got everything. Man, a martial artist and eventually an agent. That's darn cool. I started karate last year and hopefully that'll lead somewhere. I'm 22, though, and don't know how high a belt level I can realistically hope to achieve.

Thanks for the compliments Dark Angel!


Our system of ranking doesn't really use belts... but I have friends who do karate and tae kwon do. Most of them say that most people can reach 1st degree black belt within a year and a half with constant training (read: going to the dojo) at least 5 days a week) After 1st degree black belt... it's hell.

Tip: once you reach a sufficiently high level (purple or green) volunteer or ask your teacher if you can train the lower belted seito (students). This does three things: It will ingratiate you to your sensei, help you skip belts, and sometimes, they'll PAY you!

One of the most fun things to do in a martial arts class is when your instructor calls for multifighting... it means 1-on-3, 2-on-2, or 1-on-1-on-1-on-1! (advanced students vs. a group of lesser ones.)

If you're a real martial arts freak like me, you could try to learn a back-up style. The best is when you can mix the two that you have... it's crazy!
