P-C,

Oh, who? (I know Seanan, if that's who you're referring to)

I tend to listen more than anything else, but listeners are part of the filk community too.

Oh, who? (I know Seanan, if that's who you're referring to)

That's who!

I thought it might be....

OK, here goes. My name is Jean, just like my user name. I was a fairly regular poster here many moons ago -- I think I first de-lurked sometime after "The Body" aired. Then I dropped out for a while -- couldn't keep up with the pace -- but came back to lurk a long time ago. And I've been lurking ever since. I've often been tempted to make my presence known, but felt a little creepy about it.

I live in Minneapolis with my orange cat, Leo. I am of no particular age (hey, that's my story). A few weeks ago I embarked on a brand new adventure -- I quit the job I'd had for 13 years and went back to school full-time to get a second degree in Music Therapy. (My first degree was in English.)

I'm a big fan of the serial comma and have no issues with cilantro.

Welcome, Mala, SolangeK, and Jean! (dcp, you're practically a regular!)

This is going to end up being my favorite thread! Filled with awesome! I love reading the posts from those I already know and love and have hugged and kissed F2F. And yet there is a detail or two I missed somehow, or forgot, because brain like sieve. And the delurkers! I knew you were there and it fills me with joy to see your fonts.

I'm another Laura.

Woooooot! I'm delighted to meet you. I like you already!

Hi! I'm Rayne.

I supported you, although not in email. I can't begin to count the number of scripts I enjoyed thanks to your efforts. Good to see ya.

The coolest kid around town.

Indeed.

New peoples! This is SO FREAKING AWESOME!!

THIS!

I think I'm the only Fred around here.

Maybe not here, but my FIL and his father were Freds and delightful fellows, so we like em. I also have a fish named Fred, but the other 3 fish are Wilma, Barney, and Betty. So rather a theme there.

And speaking of pets, in addition to the 4 fish, we have a lovely 13yo Springer Spaniel named Brandy and a cat named Georgia. Georgia claims we don't feed her enough.

I live in Pittsburgh and I'm a geek.

Welcome, Mala! I only lived in Pgh for a year, but I loved the people so very much. Awesome place. I need to spend more time there.

I'm SolangeK. I've been lurking for so long here, anything other than this delurking thread would have just felt...kinda icky.

Seriously, with an id number of 89 that is a whole lotta lurking. It is great to see you posting.

My name is Jean, just like my user name.

Real name users FTW!

This thread is awesome. It's like a buffista census.

Oh, and I neglected to state that I too, for the record, play a Laura in real life. Solange was my high school French class handle.

Hec, how did your map marker end up southwest of New Iberia, Louisiana? Planning a trip?

Jean, I too have an orange cat named Leo. In his case, it's short for Leonardo diCatrio, but we don't admit it.
