Greetings! I am le nubian. I took my name from a band I really liked called "les nubians". I am not a francophone, so a perhaps better nickname should have been la nubian, but it is a little late for that now. Yes, I have girly bits.

I have been around for awhile. I started off with the buffistas back at Salon, following the group to worldcrossing in the Great Migration, and am here now. Although Buffy and Angel are off the air, I am still here because I love all you people.

I am a California native displaced to the midwest (graduate school and job keeps me here thus far). I have recently taken up bowling as a hobby, but otherwise, I love mystery novels and true crime, and crime related tv. If it is a procedural, I've seen it and/or watch it regularly. I love tech gadgets and computer crap (though I'm an intermediate user, not an expert).

Most frequently visited threads: comedies, cable dramas, lost, procedurals, premium tv, jossverse, minear, movies, non-fiction, boxed set, other media (mostly a lurker there), spoilers (hard core and lite), supernatural and technology.

Hello! As can be seen my board name is SailAweigh, often shortened to Sail. I'll answer to that in person, even, although my parents named me Ellen and I'll answer to that, if used. I found the Buffistas while they were on WX, but didn't join and delurk until we took our show on the road and became b.org. I officially delurked on Christmas day of 2002. Best gift I ever got.

I live in Madison, WI where I am currently unemployed (drat this economy.) I am single, have two grown kids (who live away from home, yay), live with two cats and have a healthy relationship with my vacuum cleaner. Not that way, you pervs, it's to keep up with the cat hair. A good vacuum cleaner is a must. ;P (Please pardon the emoticon, but tone is important on the innernets!)

Being unemployed, I'm keeping up with Natter, for once, but can most commonly be found in Bitches, Great Write Way, Supernatural, Procedurals, Boxed Set, Non-fiction, Fan Fiction, Jossverse, Minearverse, Movies, Other Media, Cable Drama, Heroes (although, I'm not quite caught up with all of last season) and, now that I know Glee is in Comedy (why did I not think of that?), you will probably find me there, too.

Welcome, Abby! I hope we get more delurking, this is fun!

editted because I didn't realize just how many threads I was subscribed to until I checked my message center!

Plei!

And Jesse & smonster & Stephanie & Ouise (Canada represent!) & juliana!

And everyone. Hi.

Hi, Abby!

This is fun. Come on out, lurkers! We don't bite! (Much.)

I'm Jess. aka Jessica, Jess PMoon, Jessimoon, and previously known as Persephonemoon which should explain all the other nicknames.

I've been here since TT 2001 and subscribe to WAY too many threads. (Natter, Bitches, Movies, Cable Drama, Spoilers, F2F, Tech, Non-Fiction, Gaming, Heroes, Literary, OM, B&A, Minearverse. Sidebar threads I read manually, and I occasionally poke my head into Great Write Way and Procedurals. Yikes. No wonder I'm not getting any work done.)

This is fun. Come on out, lurkers! We don't bite! (Much.)

We do nibble fairly frequently. Usually along with a grope or twelve.

DO NOT EAT ME, NORA DEIRDRE. I AM UNDERCOOKED TODAY AND WILL MAKE YOU FRO UP.

Non-cannibals: Hello. Thank you for not eating me. I do not mind the occasional nibble as long as you avoid ticklish spots.

Not sure about groping. Will you still respect me tomorrow?

Hi Abby! We've got the coasts of Canada covered, but where are the inlanders?

Ice! Welcome! You are the most lurkingest person so far, as I have never seen you before. But you're rocking the all-caps, so you can stay.

I think I can also claim semi-lurker status.

I don't know if I can count you as a lurker if I've sent you a Secret Santa present.

I'm David, known locally as Hec. I live in San Francisco with my wife (JZ, who posts here), and my two children Emmett (13, from my first marriage) and Matilda (3), with JZ. I was an Air Force brat and grew up in Oregon and (mostly) Florida. I went to college in Ohio (Kenyon College) and have also lived in Boston and LA.

I'm a writer and I've published three books, all on music. I've also written magazine articles and web content. I was a magazine editor with Fantagraphics back in the 80s.

I've mostly supported myself, however, working in some kind of admin position in law offices and am currently looking to transition from underemployed to employed.

I've been a Buffista since the second TT thread. I post in Natter, Bitches, Music, Movies, Literary, Cable and Comedy.

Aside from my interest in music, I'm an avid baseball fan, and coached my son's Little League team for the last five years.

I don't want to hear about how cute your cat is and I take a hardline muffeletta position. (No Justice! No Peace! No Olives! No Muffeletta!)

B.org is my online home. If I'm online there's a 99% chance that I've got a tab open for B.org. I have many close friends here on the board and have met many Buffistas F2F.
